Refund Policy

Our commitment to customer satisfaction and fair refund procedures

Refund Policy Overview

At Pizzaiolo, we take great pride in providing high-quality authentic Italian pizza and excellent customer service. We understand that sometimes issues may arise with your order, and we are committed to addressing them promptly and fairly. This Refund Policy outlines the conditions under which we issue refunds and the procedures for requesting them.

We strive to ensure that every pizza we deliver meets our high standards for quality, freshness, and taste. If your order does not meet these standards or if there are other issues, we want to make it right.

Eligibility for Refunds

You may be eligible for a full or partial refund under the following circumstances:

Quality Issues

  • Incorrect Order: If you received items different from what you ordered
  • Missing Items: If items are missing from your order
  • Food Quality: If the food quality does not meet our standards (e.g., undercooked, burnt, spoiled)
  • Foreign Objects: If you find any foreign objects in your food

Delivery Issues

  • Significant Delay: If your delivery is significantly delayed (more than 30 minutes beyond the estimated delivery time) without prior notification
  • Cold Food: If your food arrives cold due to delivery delays
  • Damaged During Delivery: If your order is damaged during the delivery process

Technical Issues

  • For Delivery or Pickup Orders: Within 24 hours of receiving your order

Refund requests submitted outside these timeframes may still be considered at our discretion, but we cannot guarantee approval.
