1 Order Cancellation Guidelines

Because freshly cooked meals are perishable goods prepared specifically upon your request, cancellation rules are structured as follows:

  • Before Restaurant Acceptance: You may cancel your order at 100% full refund within 60 seconds of placing the order before the restaurant partner kitchen accepts it.
  • After Kitchen Acceptance: Once the restaurant begins preparing your food, cancellation is no longer possible without a 100% cancellation fee, as the culinary ingredients have already been utilized.
  • Order Cancelled by Merchant/Platform: If a restaurant is out of stock or unable to fulfill your order, the order will be cancelled with a 100% immediate full refund.

2 Eligibility for Full or Partial Refunds

You are entitled to a full or partial refund in the following verified scenarios:

Spilled or Damaged Package
Food container opened, heavily spilled, or completely damaged during transit.
Missing Items
One or more dishes ordered were omitted from the delivered parcel.
Wrong Food Delivered
Delivered parcel belongs to a different order or wrong dish was sent.
Extreme Delivery Delays
Excessive delay (>45 minutes beyond maximum ETA) solely attributable to platform dispatch error.
