Quality Diner in Tendring

As again even offered to pay for sauce on the meat and chips and decided to give me pitta bread with chips on the side and two garlic sauce garlic sauce which I asked for a burger absolutely rewind my nice, will continue to review this store until it just goes as I asked

My pizza is like a floppy disk, I like the chips but I don't like a pc part as a pizza. Definitely not quality more like drunkie 3am standards.

Looked at the menu before going in for a takeaway when I ordered what we wanted it came to alot more money than what it should have been according to the menu they got really nasty and I felt really intimidated so payed the money never again will I set foot on that place

I bought a mega Burger tonight. And they didn't put donna in it very disappointed with the service

Never eating here again they give u dirty looks when u order ur food and I asked for no salad and they gave me salad

Was the only option we had whilst staying in a caravan in off season. The wraps were lovely and so was the burgers but the pizza was so low quality and frozen it was almost funny. If you avoid the pizza then this place is great.

3 star hygiene 🤢 Never get the order correct. Stingy on the salad & sauce by giving you both in small pre-made pots which also makes extra plastic waste. The lad that took the order spoke perfect English as well as whatever backward nonsense the other idiots speak & the order was still wrong. They didn’t deserve the second chance, NEVER AGAIN!

Absolutely disgusting customer service ordered 3 things and they missed an item off called back to get a replacement and the response was vile the person acted very aggressive and decided to hang up on me no replacement given I will not be returning and I would advise everyone to find somewhere else better service is easily found nearby. Woeful experience.

Ordered food but the they gave wrong order, so they came back and collected the food and gave us the correct order. However there was no sauce or salad. Then they had to go back and get the sauce and salad increasing the overall delivery time.

Wasn't given the entire meal and the guy on the phone kept saying "my bad" about the situation

The actual kebabs are spot on.you can't fault them. As for the chips,they are re cooked so many times they are rock hard and usually cold. I won't be using qaulity diner no more

Unfortunately the taste of the food isn't the same as it was with previous owners. However the quality of the food appears to be okay. Polite and friendly staff on my last visit though (14/10/23) The premises appeared to be clean and tidy. Reasonably priced food and drink here.

Chips were hard. Bacon under cooked in cheese burger. Worst I've had from Quality Diner. Always had food delivered from here but not anymore.

£6.50 for a halloumi wrap - 3 small bits of halloumi and no salad. Shocking.

Went here for a kebab and drink had a mix kebabs with salad taste fresh and the kebab was seasoned well loved the taste

I liked this place before but definitely gone down hill. I've had to take my chicken donner back twice over the last few months because of NIGHT BEFORE OLD GRIZLE MEAT. I've gone there and ordered tonight and yet again... got old burnt chicken meat. So disappointed. Prices gone up but QUALITY gone down.

Food tastes amazing, and the price and portions are the best. But I would only ever go in and order. I used to get it delivered, and 90% of the time, the order would be missing something/ be wrong/ turn up cold or 2 hours later than expected. But going in is a completely different experience. Great staff, and you get to make sure you're getting what you've ordered. Parking is an issue. But worth parking where you can and walking to it. Best in clacton/Holland-on-sea by far (I've tried them all multiple times)

I’ve never had to leave a review in my life as I think they’re pointless however I feel I need to let people know. The pizza we ordered was barely cooked we had to re cook in our oven, and the taste was doughy! Icelands frozen pizza would have been cheaper and a lot better.

Ithe food they surve is amazing and the service is great, the staff are polite and professional and the delivery people where also kind and pollite, 100% recconendation

This is not something you could give a customer to eat, I also work at the kebab shop, but we throw this dry and burnt meat in the trash, we don't offer it to customers. I do not recommend!

Ordered a kebab wrap last night, asked for garlic mayo didn’t get any, kebab meat was too thick and didn’t even taste like meat, if someone told me I was eating a horse I wouldn’t of doubted them, the quality of the meat overall was speaking with large bits of gristle sitting all through it and swimming in grease, will never be eating from here again Would jot recommend to ANYONE

Best breakfast in Clacton Great choice amazing views and its got a bar..what more could you ask for

Excellent food very hot and well cooked highly recommended to anyone

Order was short of multiple things rang to explain at first they said they’re was no order at address then then said they had fulfilled the order then they said they would be delivering the missing items as yet still hasn’t turned up it a complete shambles avoid if your hungry and want to pay for stuff that don’t turn up

Would never order from here again, food was disgusting for the price , I would have given a 0 if I could

Order from Quality diner they made a mistake gave us the wrong order rang up and said they said they’d collect the wrong order and swap it for the right one tho to be honest they should’ve let us have it as they made a mistake the driver didn’t come to our door twice that isn’t the point of a delivery lady on the phone very rude customer service rubbish and wouldn’t recommend getting anything from there won’t be getting again

If I could put 0 I would! AVOID at all cost! Unless you want to wait 2 hours for a delivery to then get cold, hard, dry food! Spoke with them and got absolutely no help!

I love this place the pizzas are incredible and the guys who work there are funny and polite and I will never go anywhere else for a pizza they taste incredible and I would recommend the pollo del bbq

This place should be closed they pick food out the trash then reheat it make it look what they would call presentable then try sell it off to customers as quality food

I rang up to place an order, and three days later at 11pm, a woman rang me up demanding payment, even though I received an email saying my order was paid for online on their APP. She carried on arguing as I refused to pay again. Now my account has been suspended. GREAT I WON'T USE YOU NO MORE.

Got my order wrong no apology told me I had to wait even longer for a delivery. Food was cold. The member of the staff was rude will never go back. Avoid !!!

I would stay well clear of this place I found a piece of hair in my food they refused to change it this place should be closed down for good

Awful, wouldn’t feed it to my dog. Went straight in the bin.

Food was hot and delicious. Service was great and not expensive

This used to be my go to takeaway and I’d recommend it to everyone but the issues started nearly 6 months ago with a website bug (which STILL isn’t fixed) Tonight has been a final straw, told 45 minutes on the phone. Ordered at 19:20 chased at 20:39 and was told it’s on its way now, women rolls up to the door at 21:04 which means it somehow took 25 minutes to do a less than 10minute journey. Rejected what certainly would’ve been cold food on door as I thankfully hadn’t paid for it and cooked for myself. Just don’t bother and avoid. There’s nothing quality about quality diner anymore….

Had a delivery, waited nearly an hour and food was barely warm. Used to be great, don't know if different staff but don't seem to care about food standards anymore

Absolutely shocking no delivery after an hour called and was told it's just leaving be 15 minutes 38 minutes later it still hasn't arrived. I have always used you but sadly I won't be using you again because this service is appalling. The food has arrived chips like warm and chicken shish. My chicken wrap is cold. Disgraceful

Great food delivered to door always on time.

Gave us the wrong order 🤦🏼‍♂️ mixed our bag up with someone elses...

I ordered a chicken kebab, donor kebab and large chips. Chicken kebab & 2 large chips arrived. I rang to tell them, man very rude on the phone, told me I’d have to wait another 45 mins for delivery and I needed to return the extra chips, then put the phone down on me!! Been going here for years, not anymore- terrible customer service, not even a can of drink for the inconvenience. They got their chips back!

Been coming here years but it gets worse and worse. Threw it in the bin. Re-heated chips, smaller portions, what’s happened to this place!! Never again

Burnt, part order wrong. Impolite staff when called for them to correct. Definitely go elsewhere! Efes is much better food and faster delivery.

Extremely poor service and a joke of a takeaway. I am fuming at the service I have just received. I ordered a pizza at 12:16 and was told the pizza will be delivered in about 45 mins. 45 mins passed and I called again to request the delivery driver calls me instead of knocking on the r Door as it’s now 1:04am. I then call a 3rd time at 1:40am to cancel the order as it’s taken too long. 2am the driver is knocking on my door so I took the pizza and paid for it after asking is the pizza even hot? In which the smoke stinking driver replied yes it’s hot just came out the box. I then open the box and the pizza is burnt and cold. 2:04am I call quality dinner back fuming. In which they refuse to give me a full refund for the Cold burnt pizza they expect to be paid for. I was offered a 50% refund and have been told I should receive it Monday. Absolutely disgusted with the food and the service just glad I have recorded the calls as my defence. Will never eat here ever again. I would avoid this place you get more Quality pizzas in your freezer then this so called “quality diner”

Welcome the very nice kebap shop QUALITY

I would give this a 0. Avoid at all costs. Food turned up late and stuff was missing. I called up and was called a liar by the “manager” and the delivery driver. The driver then told them that I questioned her about the delivery which is another load of lies . I called again to say the food was cold and the “manager” said that there is no way it could be, after it being left for an hour it was cold. He was very rude on the phone and I will not be ordering again. It’s a waste of money and the service is terrible. Customer service needs to be improved big time.

Ordered food loads of times before it was good tonight was abslouty sh*t when i rang back up to complain about it the manager called a lier and said i couldnt order again he was a knob i will never be ordering from here again

I would give this 0 stars if I could. Ordered and was told that it would be 45 minutes ended up calling an hour and 20 minutes after ordering and was told that it had gone out with the driver around 20 minutes ago and we would have to just wait for our food. We made a point about the food being cold and we were told that it isn't there problem and although they said that we could call up again and the driver would collect it and it would be sent out fresh it is also getting later and had 2 children that needed to be fed before bed time. we called again after having been waiting for 2 hours altogether for our food and all we were told is that we have to wait and that they are busy. Had to cancel the order . It is ridiculous that it has spent all that time in the car it would be cold after spending so long in there. And we aren’t paying for cold food.

I have been friends with all the staff at the Quality Diner since I once visited them in October 21 and I have continued to visit them on a regular basis. They're great! Dougie.

Long wait for delivery1:30 hours (ordered on line ), was a Saturday though. However on arrival and unwrapping the food was Luke warm, (ordered a large I Ed kebab, cheesy fries and a large burger with extra cheese) we were that hungry we warmed up the food in oven, than to try and ring and complain. Average overall quality poor. (Best part was the fresh salad) this is now the second time it has been like this so unfortunately won’t be doing a delivery service for this type of food again!

Don't use these people the worst service I've ever had

Best chicken donner I've tasted in clacton

Ordered a wrap an was lovely! Plenty of salad and sauce! Can’t fault it We will be ordering again :)

Do not order from this place there food is horrible. Ordered chilli cheese bits and only received 4 when there should if been 8 I phone up and they was saying we was lieing. I'm pretty sure there driver open the bag and eaten them . Also chicken is very dry the garlic sauce is like jelly we wasn't asking for a refund all we wanted was the other 4 chilli cheese bits that we paid for I stop using this place mouths ago due to food allway dry cold or missing.onky used it as are kebabs house was close don't even need 1 Star should be -100 starts

The best kebap shop welcome👍👍👍👍😀😀

Had a quarter pounder with cheese and what a stunning burger 🍔 and me mate had a shish chicken wrap and couldn't fault it 👌

I would give 0 stars if I could but my problem is I ordered 2 kebabs one of the kebabs came and there was oil dripping everywhere like I wouldn't be complaining if it was abit as I know some food can be oily but this was a chicken kebab and the oil managed to seep through 2 papers that It was wrapped in and the other thing I ordered was a donner wrap the meat was just full off fat and gritty peices I didn't even eat it I wouldn't even feed my cats the meat absolutely terrible and £12.40 down the drain appalling! Never going here again

Crap didn’t deliver food then was rude really don’t bother said half hour after 1 hour 30 they said you want it or both then put phone down really not worth it very bad

Was load of rubbish just shredded mest scraps in container salad in smsll box ordered garlic bread with cheese completely honest was disgusting not a local but if I visit clacton again sterr weel clear 15 quids worth went in bin learn by your mistakes

Always friendly and fast service been eating from here for years never had any problems Always good food

Unfortunately that was the last time I'll be ordering from Quality Diner. For the fifth time in a row the order was wrong. I ordered a chicken doner and received a lamb doner. When ordering I even asked for it to be checked due to the previous orders being wrong where the wrong item was sent or something was missing. When the order arrived I tried calling to sort it out but it was just ringing. I ended up swapping with my Husband who also doesn't like lamb doner. After 45 minutes of trying to get through we were told we shouldn't have eaten it and should have just waited. We gave it to the dog in the end. She'll probably throw it up.

Rude staff who spend more time insulting customers than cooking.

Had a meal delivered from quality diner last night it was the worst meal we have ever had , last night a few of us went down with upset tummy’s this morning I find out my elderly dad has been on the toilet and being sick all night same with one of my daughters , I rang the shop today to explain what has happened and to see what they was going to do about it and basically was told no refund and that no body else has complained he did say if anyone else comes forward and complains then we will get a full refund absolutely disgusting 🤮 avoid at all cost I had to rate it but it should be 0

Prices have been put up but food Portions have gone down its a joke thr prices you pay for what they give you also asking for sauce on your food instead of pots is to mixh for them to do and when you donhet your pots of half full sauce half time they are OFF the service is terrible when you complain KEEP WELL AWAY

Took over 3 hours to receive food!! When we called up after 2 hours of waiting we was told they cooked it a while ago but the delivery driver forgot to take it with him. Another hour passes we finally received food! it was cold and had been microwaved as the chips were hard and chewy😩I had to chuck it in the bin it was disgusting. Never ordering from here again. Waste of money.

Order from here too regularly 😶, due too late working patterns of me and my partner, but always hot, always on time, always full of flavour and the drivers are always friendly, I ask for extra chilli peppers on the special instructions and I get them which is amazing (alot of takeaways never remember) couldn't recommend enough 👍

Food and salad was Unsalted, untasty. No salt provided or sauces, although requested. Expensive as well. Totally not worth it

Another amazing meal. Portion sizes phenomenal, tasty food, fast delivery friendly staff. Best in town!!!

Ordered online as I have had problems before with being sent incorrect food after ordering on the phone and then being told by the manager that I must have asked for the wrong thing! Only ordered again as we have been going here for a long time and always enjoyed the food and service before. Waited 75 minutes for our order to arrive and then one of the items was incorrect. Called the shop, I was offered a replacement but it took over an hour for a driver to come back with the new food which was also cold! Very disappointing and not even an apology from the shop when I told them.

Just had this from quality dinner un edible meat rock hard and garlic bread burnt to a cinder When phoned to complain was told the cooker burnt it darling we don't give refunds dont cry darling do not use this place rude and arrogant reporting to the food standards agency and consumer rights

Under new management messed up our order 3 times portion size is very small

Absolutely disgusting… Ordered food with my family as a nice meal that we could all eat together, however kebab was burnt and food was cold. Then missing and item so my sister didn’t end up eating as was waiting over HALF AN HOUR!! For chips. Absolutely disgusting and when we called up they were so rude and arrogant, customer service in this place is appalling. Fuming don’t eat here!

I have been using Quality Dinner for years. Any problems I have had they have always resolved. However my last order was inedible. (The previous order was burnt but edible and I didn't ask them to replace it). Called to tell them this expecting them to replace the items in my order that were inedible as they just tasted of pure salt (excluding the pizza that was lovely). They told me that it was my taste buds and there was nothing wrong with the order and I had ordered lamb tikka shish, I told them that is what I always order but it is so salty it is inedible. Again I was told it was my taste buds and that the order was fine. I said ok I will rip up your menu and won't use you again (which I did and I won't). Very disappointed because when I get the young lady on the phone she is amazing.

Great food got my order wrong tho

The doner kebab had no taste to it and smelt badly . Chips were full of salt .I do not recommend anyone to go to it.it was disgusting

Amazing food a king size keebab was so value for money

Food was disgusting. I would have enjoyed eating a box more. Chips were cold & and very cardboard like, nuggets have definitely been sat forhourss on a hot plate and not cooked fresh, they were rock hard. Binned it all, complete waste of money. I wouldnt even feed it to my dog. Its a joke to believe they feel this food was fit to serve. Never again.

Bought Lrge done kebab and chips. Two of us shared was brilliant tasted great service.

Brilliant food and service spot on!

Nearly an hour late. This is not acceptable.

I enjoyed the Lamb donor Kebab and Salad. The Chips though were a bit dried out. It helped us out though as me and Dad were stuck. The place looked clean and well presented. We have come before.

Just remember the delivery person can only deliver once he has been given the delivery they get there Asquith as possible within the highways code act. If you're delivery is late which often it is complain at the restaurant as they will not take blame or can they cook fast enough to cater for your needs. Just remember it's a business they won't turn down you're order but the delivery person is the one dealing with the abuse bear it in mind.

Amazing Pizza! Probably the best pizza I’ve had. The kids ordered mozzarella sticks and garlic bread to which I didn’t get a look in but I’m told they were amazing too! Good job team

Great menu. Great staff. Great service. Fantastic value for money.

allways fresh and serve you quick allways clean and many staff on working for quick tasty food service with a smile

Had pizza and kebab. Both were very good. Will use agsin

Great takeaway, reasonable prices for good food.

Nice lamb shish kebab Fresh salad lovely red cabbage and I love the chilly sauce

Waited over 2 hours for delivery to be told they tried to contact me but they lied as didn’t contact me at all

Just had the super burger with extra cheese and donna meat on top. It was one of the biggest burgers and the best tasting one you'll find in Clacton on sea

Always lovely fresh food, efficient service and friendly staff. Spot on👌🏼

Dinner was over half an hour late, chips were soggy wet! Doner burgers had hardly any meat in and was cold! We always use this place not any more really disappointed and the online chat is crap not helpful one bit

Had a delivery this evening and for the first time the food was not very nice. Had Chicken Shish, meat was cold, Chips in pitta bread, chips were cold. Never had bad food like this before not sure if the food had been lying in the shop awaiting delivery or the delivery driver had my food in his car for a while.

Good food usually but don't order anytime around a major event. Delivery took just shy of two hours and they take on so many deliveries that their drivers are out for half an hour with food so don't expect piping hot

I have waited nearly 2 hour no food dont use these waste of time

First time using them as told they are ok. Food was late by half an hour... not a good start. But burger I ordered was amazing so that's a plus my chips weren't cooked right but edible I can't really complain. Would order again.

Was once the best in the town. They sold the shop to someone else now it's rubbish!!!! Was always busy, had to wait 30-40 mins some times. Now your in and out in seconds. The staff was sitting about ordering from another shop for there food. Will not be returning. Will stick with buffalo on station road.

Just picked out kabab up, got home to no salad or sauces on kabab or chips. Chips are soggy

I have waited over two hours for my pizza and after several phone calls they told me it was with the driver for an hour I’m not happy and I can say that I won’t be ordering from. Then anymore I love quality but tonight it was bad I paid the 12.90

Hi after 8yrs of using quality dinner it saddens me to right this review the last couple of months the quality of 3 of my orders have bin bad we waited for over 2 hrs to receive wrong food and it was to late for me to change order as it arrived at 23.00 and cold then 2nd time the order was of poor quality and cold then last nights order the bottle of drink was forgotten the chips was cold and the lamb shish was so over cooked I couldn't eat it not sure what is going on there at moment but maybe it's time to try some where else now sorry I did call about the wrong food at the time but wasn't met with a helpful member of staff but thanks for your service prior these three orders Kind regards simon

Quality Diner, quality driver! Food was delicious & delivered by a kind hearted gentleman that found my elusive gaff which is notoriously hard to find especially in the dark! Forget the negative Nancy reviews as Quality Diner does exactly what it says on the tin! Merci 🙂🙏🏻
