The general consensus was that the quality of the chips has deteriorated to such an extent that they are basically not fit to eat. As I commented on the original topic I have been in the job for many years and I know what they are doing wrong. I will not go into the specifics as I am sure that the the "Management" at Talk Quesada will most likely delete this post. A "word to the wise" if members are only allowed to pass complimentary comments and not basically be truthful regarding a business known on this forum, I am not sure that I am comfortable in being a member of a forum which does not allow members to be truthful in their comments. I am fully aware that it is possible that derogatory comments can be passed in order to damage the reputation of a business, but I am attempting to warn the owner of Quesada Fish And Chips that he is in danger of ruining his business. The original topic has been removed as I am sure this one will be and possibly my membership !!
You wrote that you have" been in the business over thirty years".

It is also difficult to weed out the trolls and you find them on every forum.

I often phone down to QFC and order a takeaway for collection.
Whenever I go there the restaurant is packed out, I have had no complaints about the food or the service. I know people who come to QFC from as far away as the Hondons and even Pinoso, they seem happy to do that.
This restaurant has, for sometime now been the butt of criticism much of which in my experience has been unwarranted.
Isn´t it strange how many builders are quick to criticise the work of other builders, perhaps the same applies to chip fryers?

We also feel Quesada fish and chips has gone downhill, having had upset stomachs the last twice we ate there, also the condiments are being reduced in choice with tartare sauce being charged for. And finally I fail to understand why well controlled dogs are not allowed in the outside area as is normal practice in the vast majority of eating establishments in this area.

I've nothing against dogs but wouldn't eat in a restaurant that allowed them even on the outside. I seem to remember QFC gave the reason why they weren't allowed and at the time it seemed a reasonable reason.

I do not have any pets, and have nothing against them being in an area where I am am eating. Though if you do not like dogs sitting in an eatery, then I am afraid you are in the wrong country. This is standard practice in Spain. When in Rome...........

Maybe I've just been lucky for 13 years or choose to eat in places that don't allow it. Dogs do what sometimes dogs do, if you're ok with that then fair enough.

What people have to remember is that we have to balance fair criticism with criticism from competitors and trolls - it's very hard sometimes.
Also if there is bad language, arguments or rudeness this will get removed as we do not want Talk Quesada going to same way as other forums and not being friendly and helpful.

I think my comment was removed. I have never criticised the food. My gripe was being turned away at 8.30 on a Friday night in August because we had arrived too late. I am not a troll or vindictive but as a fairly regular customer I was really offended at being turned away so early in the evening. I agree, the management should take heed. Why spoil a good thing??
