Certainly. Here's a more polite and non-confrontational version of your message:
I initially visited to receive a credit for two deluxe boxes, as we had previously requested no tomatoes due to someone’s allergy. I was informed that the two boxes would be credited. However, when I arrived, only the soft tacos and chalupas were credited. We proceeded to order the boxes, reiterating our request for no tomatoes on the steak chalupas and making it clear that no tomatoes should be included on any of the items. When we returned home, the credit bag contained chicken instead of the requested steak, and the new order of chalupas had tomatoes on them.
We then contacted the store, and after being on the phone for about 50 minutes, we decided to drive back there. Upon arrival, we noticed we were initially ignored at the counter, and one staff member even started entering a DoorDash order. The two front staff members seemed to be having a disagreement about closing their sections, which caused a bit of delay. After about 5-7 minutes, one of them asked how they could assist us. We requested to speak with a manager, and she responded somewhat dismissively, saying she would see if the manager was available. During this time, we overheard a conversation among staff regarding our order, specifically whether the order contained chicken or steak.
When the manager came out, we explained the situation—highlighting the lengthy phone call, the errors in the order, and the fact that the chalupas with tomatoes had to be discarded due to an allergy. She mentioned she had prepared the orders and was confident there were no tomatoes and no chicken, which seemed to dismiss our concerns. She suggested that I go home and bring back the food for a remake, but I explained that I live 25 minutes away and had already made a round trip after the initial delay. I also mentioned that the items with tomatoes had been thrown away because of the allergy. The manager did remake my friend's mac and cheese but expected me to return with two chicken chalupas and two with tomatoes.
Throughout this process, there was a noticeable lack of courtesy, and we perceived some attitude from staff. Additionally, the atmosphere seemed tense, and at one point, a manager appeared to be condescending toward a newer employee by instructing her on something displayed on the screen. Another manager then commented casually that the credit simply needed to be processed and paid for with the next order, seemingly without taking the time to understand or explain the steps involved. I believe the manager's name was Melissa.
We appreciate any attention to these concerns and hope for better customer service experiences in the
Future
