I put in my order at 4 p.m

I put in my order at 4 p.m. on New Year's Eve for a 6:35 pick-up, but ended up waiting until 8 p.m. to receive the food. It was quite chaotic.

This is more about the restaurant food…

This is more about the restaurant food quality than the agents that I ordered through. Food from Moonlight Tandoori is always good & delivered quickly. We have been using them for years for those reasons.

Always lovely food at Indian Moments, Harlow. I eat in more often than takeaways, but the chefs definitely know what they're doing.

When I went to collect, over the period between Xmas and New Year the restaurant was closed.

When I went to collect the restaurant was closed (over the holiday period) so outlets presumably need to be better trained in the use of the chefonline website (I presume that when they know they'll not be open they can update that fact on the chefonline website).
