RATING CRITERIA
✅ OverExpectation
An experience that goes far beyond the standard, something customers never expected but received, and will always remember.
🟡 Meet Expectation
Meeting industry standards, fine and adequate, but nothing surprising.
🔴 UnderExpectation
Falling short of basic expectations — there are clear areas needing improvement
DINE IN
What it's like to walk in as a real customer, service, atmosphere, staff attentiveness, and the small moments that shape whether you'd come back.
The In-Person Experience
DELIVERY
The same brand, tested through app ordering, packaging, delivery time, and unboxing — because CX doesn't stop at the front door anymore.
The Delivery Experience
