    No - You have to assume that the majority want to serve a good meal. It could be a line cook that needs training and the boss needs to know that.I rarely send food back. But when I do it is apparent there is something wrong - overcooked, undercooked, etc. I don't send it back because I don't like it. Lots of times I don't like what i cook.

    I have friends that I stopped going out to eat with because they always sent food back or complained to get money taken off the check.It was like a 2nd job for this couple.

    No, there is a difference between sending it back due to under cooking, burnt or just plain bad tasting versus being nit picking like many can be. If it is truly bad they want to know so they can correct it.

    Oh yes. You don't just have to worry about the cook. There is also the waitress, bus boy and could be more. It's a sick thing to do but I am sure it's done.

    Most of them take pride in what they do. Depending on what's wrong with it, most are only too pleased to make things right. The last thing I sent back was lasagna that had cellophane INSIDE it! ><

    Yes. I have heard stories of cooks spitting in the food and putting other things in it also. I am very careful about that.

    I wouldn't send it back unless it was really terrible anyway, I hate being "that customer", and plus, theres much more to worry about in life than a problem with your meal dont sweat the small stuff.
