Expired food
I am writing to express my dissatisfaction with the Maggi order I recently received.
When I placed my first order, the packaging was in very poor condition, and the delivery was significantly delayed. Upon opening the product, I noticed a very unpleasant odor coming from the Maggi, which made it seem unsafe for consumption. I immediately raised a complaint and placed a replacement order.
Unfortunately, the replacement order had the same issue. The Maggi again emitted a foul smell, giving the impression that the product was expired or no longer fit for consumption. Due to concerns about food safety and health risks, I did not consume the product.
Despite reporting the issue multiple times, I did not receive a satisfactory resolution, nor was a refund provided. I am disappointed with the handling of this matter, especially considering the potential health risks associated with supplying food products that appear to be spoiled.
I request that this issue be investigated and that an appropriate resolution, including a refund, be provided at the earliest.
Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your prompt.

Bistro is Loveable
While many food items are not up to the mark, several are quite good. The chocochip cookie is an absolute fav for my child. I like the Belgian choco shake. Plain maggi is a good comfort food, so is the chicken strips. We have tried biriyani - which is good. Wrap is too spicy. But the broccoccinis are yummy if you ignore the facc that they become soggy while being delivered- soggyness - you cant ignore. The best thing is perhaps the delivery time. By far they are faster than Zomato.
The best thing I would always love is the little messages they put on the bill- slip. I even collect them ! Bistro is absolutely a “green flag” for me.

WORST SERVICE EVER
What’s even more disappointing is that they cancelled my order within 5 minutes, seemingly just to avoid issuing a refund. I repeatedly requested them to refund my hard-earned money, but there was no proper resolution.
I regularly order from Blinkit and have never faced such an issue before, but this was my first order from Bistro and it turned out to be a horrible experience.
They also claim to serve “freshly prepared food,” but if you cancel within 30 seconds, they still refuse to refund the amount, giving excuses about food wastage. Honestly, how is it possible for 2–3 food items to be freshly prepared within seconds? This clearly makes their claim questionable.
My money got wasted because of their pathetic policy and app glitches. Very disappointing experience.

Pathetic deliverance
Firstly, they never deliver orders on time. No matter what estimated time they show, you can almost guarantee your order will be delayed. Waiting endlessly with no proper updates is frustrating enough, but what makes it worse is the condition in which the food finally arrives.
The food is always cold. It feels like the order has been sitting around for ages before being sent out. When you’re paying for freshly prepared meals, receiving cold and unappetizing food is completely unacceptable.
What truly shocked me was their lack of accountability. Instead of apologizing or taking responsibility, they simply blame it on “delivery issues” or say something was wrong on your end. This kind of attitude towards customers is highly unprofessional.
To make matters worse, they refuse to provide refunds or even a re-delivery. So essentially, you end up paying full price for poor service and bad food, with zero resolution offered.
Overall, this has been a very frustrating experience. I would not recommend Bistro to anyone who values timely delivery, food quality, and basic customer service. Definitely not ordering from here again.

Extraordinary
And i would like to request one thing. These delivery guys all get the food right on time. And are always kind. I request bistro to pay them sufficiently. It is really sad to see them working so hard for minimum wage. I hope you read my review and make some changes. Thank you.

⭐ 1-Star Review Absolute Failure of Operations & Accountability
I clearly updated my delivery address to Noida Indoor Stadium, Gate No. 4, The app itself shows this address correctly. Despite that:
• The delivery partner went to an entirely different location
• I was blamed for an address error that I did not make
• Support repeatedly contradicted itself
• I was told the order was both undeliverable and delivered at the same time
• No proof of delivery was shared
• I was pressured into cancellation after wasting significant time
The most shocking part?
Support casually said “as I can check order is delivered” — delivered to whom? where? how? No answer.
This is not just poor customer service. This is:
• Zero coordination between app, support, and delivery
• No ownership of mistakes
• No escalation path
• Script-reading executives with no authority
• A system that conveniently shifts blame to the customer
I have screenshots of the address, chat logs, and call details, yet the response was robotic apologies and refund prompts—as if time, trust, and accountability mean nothing.
Refunding money is the bare minimum. What Bistro failed at is respect for the customer’s time and intelligence.
If Bistro wants to be taken seriously as a food-tech company, it needs:
• Real support escalation
• Location-trained delivery partners
• Accountability when their system fails
• Better internal communication
Until then, this platform is unreliable, frustrating, and not worth the risk—especially if you’re ordering from a non-residential or landmark location.
I will not be using Bistro again.

Bad service, Bad support service & Bad experience i had with bistro. You guys try to compete with Zepto but are not even at 50% of what they are at this moment.
I suggest not to take services from Bistro. #BoycottBistro

Best food in minutes
Everything I just love the food and whenever there is a party I love to order food from bistro
Great service.
Wrost delivery’
What’s the point of giving an estimated delivery time if you never meet it? I’ve been patient enough, but this constant delay shows complete carelessness and zero responsibility from your side.
If this happens again, I’ll be filing an official complaint. I expect immediate action and proper delivery management — this kind of service is just not done.
Services
Used quite some times and happy with prompt delivery & quality . Now no need to think before ordering about budget & all
Keep it up
Disappointed with Bistro’s Service Quality
This is not the first time I’ve faced issues. On a previous occasion, my order was marked as delivered even though I hadn’t received it. I had to call support multiple times and wait unnecessarily just to get what I had already paid for.
After such repeated disappointments, I’ve decided to permanently delete the app. I’ve been using Swiggy for a long time and have never faced such rigid and insensitive responses. I’ll also be sharing my experience with friends and family so they can be aware of how poorly customer issues are now handled by bistro.
