“Very reliable. Poor experiences likely due to restaurant.”

Will L.
3/10/22

I have used Beyond Menu since 2015 and regularly order lunch for pickup through the website. I found a great little Chinese restaurant nearby and they never get my order wrong, I've never been overcharged, and the order is received quickly (much easier than making a phone order). I have ordered from multiple restaurants in several cities. The only times I have had a negative experience was when the restaurant neglected to monitor their online orders. Either that, or they chose to stop accepting online orders without alerting Beyond Menu. Thanks for helping me get my Kung Pao chicken fix on a regular basis.

“A waste of time”

Jerry M.
12/11/15

Place an order last night, first only one place show delivery time "30-60 minutes". Nothing on email received confirming order, not great service but ok. Then after 75 minutes went ahead and called restaurant, only to find out it was CLOSED. Sure glad I did not use a credit card. Total waste of time, since restaurant uses the service after they re-opened have to consider that going again since they don't check up on their support businesses.

Used my bank card to place an order - information was hacked with days outrageous charges from other countries appeared on my statements - i called the restaurant prior to placing order to see if it was legit- yes we use it all the time ( great convenience I thought and as I am a regular customer) DO NOT USE IT

I searched for my favorite restaurant on google and mistakenly clicked on the "got to website" link in the Google info panel on the right, thinking it would go to the restaurants website. It didn't. It went to beyondmenu's fake site for the restaurant. The menu and contact info all looked legit but some of the interface didn't work as I remembered the last time I ordered from the restaurant. The prices also seemed very high. I proceeded to checkout anyway (stupid me). The site required me to create an account... so I figured the restaurant had decided to go with a new online vendor. However the site said there was a problem verifying my credit card. I double checked and all info was correct. So I called the restaurant and placed my order over the phone. The bill was more than 25% cheaper. I then informed the restaurant owner of this apparent scam. They said they were not aware of beyond menu and were attempting to fix the links. This is very frustrating. Don't use Beyond Menu... It is a SCAM.

Tip for consumers:
Go to the actual restaurant site instead. You'll get a better price and won't get scammed.

Products used:
Website only. I hope the order did not go through (as advertised).

Hi M M.,

May we know what restaurant were you referring to? It's impossible that the menu prices on our end our 25% higher that those of the restaurant since menu details comes directly from them. Also may we ask on what part were you "scammed"? You mentioned the transaction was not successful since your credit card was not verified, is that right?

Real customers of our website would usually call our customer service hotline regarding such issue, kindly call our Customer service hotline at (630)776-3590 if you need further assistance.

Sincerely,

I have a restaurants and when i found out the hijacked google my business listing and contact them they never have an answer and keep saying manger will call me back which in weeks they did not. Google says they can not give me back my listing since they wont release it to me. On top they are not going to pay the orders that we got from them. I wonder how come the government did not shot them down and no class action lawsuit been filed. STAY A WAY AS A BUSINESS OR A CONSUMER!

Hi Lacey.

We only charge customers once unless an order is accidentally placed multiple times which happen often. Otherwise, those charges are possibly authorization charges which normally fall off within the next 24-48 hrs. Depending on your bank's processing time as well. May we ask for additional information on the order so we can assist you further?

Ordered through the app (I have several times in the past) and 2 hours later I get charged from 2 other restaurants very near this location. I believe the restaurants gain access to credit card numbers even though you pay "securely" through the app. I have worked in the industry for 15 years and typically these companies play the middle man, but I'm wondering how else someone could get my CC number in the neighborhood I purchased food... The app looks like it was built 10 years ago by a 12 year old, and I think that same 12 year old set up the security measures. Luckily I got in touch with my bank and they were able to shut it down (there were also declined transactions). USE SAFE APPS LIKE UBEREATS OR ANYTHING ELSE

I never wrote any reviews in my entire life, no matter how bad the service of the website. BUT, this beyond menu is a total scam, they stole my money after I placed the order online, and did not get my order, and I called them to ask about my order, they said we are a third party and I should contact the restaurant myself to ask about my food. This is the most ridiculous thing I have ever encounter in my life. TAKE MY ADVICE AND DO NOT EVEN THINK TO ORDER FROM THIS WEBSITE. Save your money and time.

They stole from (Charged me twice). I use the online order procedure, I was charge by their "Beyond Menu", I received a card alert from my bank.
Then I received a followed up phone call from Beyond Menu, trying to confirm my credit card and identity.

Beyond Menu then told me I would need to present my ID and CC to the driver for proof. The driver arrived, took my CC and typed my CC info into his phone that he was holding. WTF you type my CC into what? An app? Or something else. I asked him what he was doing, he stated that this was standard and no info was kept, yeah right!

When he was finished, I received and alert from my bank that my CC was charged again! I call my CC cancel my card (no I have to deal with changing my CC on all my recurrent charges) and have to call fraud back in 2-3 days to dispute the 2nd charge. Never again will I do business with Jade Palace or Beyond Menu

Hi Jim K.,

We're sorry for the negative experience. We have an option for customers to pay by credit card upon delivery provided that restaurant has wireless credit machine. However, if you paid by credit online through BM website, restaurants should no longer be charging you again. May we ask what type of service did you use? We would like to get more details about the order so we can check what happened and we can also remind our partner restaurants our core policy and procedures to avoid giving customers like you a negative experience. You may also reach us at BeyondMenu.com Customer service at (630)776-3590 for further assistance. Thank you.

I ordered food with this company and waited almost 2 hours before it got to me. Apparently no one on that side of the screen told them when you take someones order you have to then report it to the restaurant (in a timely manner). Thinking it may have been a bad day I try them again this time I pay online with my card. Some lady calls me as soon as I push submit and starts asking questions like whats your name whats you address who is Robin. And then wants me to confirm all of this over the phone with her not the restaurant thats coming to my door. After asking for her supervisor because you dont need any personal information like that she stated the supervisor is not in and wont be able to take my call. I ordered a 13$ order of wings and for some reason they need extra info then what is asked on the screen... you already have my email card number and zip code why do you now need my full address maiden name and other non valid information for a freaking chicken wing. That wasnt a security issue that was them trying to hack my information. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY!

Hi Kami, We are sorry for the negative impression it left you. As inconvenient as it may seem, that is the process we need to do for our security check especially for new customers or returning customers. System is more particular and strict with the payment details so no unauthorized order goes through. As a result, some innocent orders also have to go through the hassle including yours. I hope you understand that this is our way to protect possible fraudulent transactions from going through. Rest assured though that we are constantly working on our system and processes to give you a better ordering experience. If you need further explanation, you may reach us at info@beyondmenu.com or call us at (630) 776-3590. Thank you.

We had a small company meeting today for 11 people and had planned to have the food here by 11:30 AM. We planned to pick it up at 11:15. I made that VERY clear. I called the Japanese place yesterday and asked if I should place the order yesterday and they told me to place it early today on line. So I placed it at 9AM. NINE O'CLOCK IN THE MORNING! I received a call from the restaurant at 11:12AM telling me they had JUST gotten the order! Yeah, 3 minutes before we actually wanted to pick it up. I will never order thru this company again! Felt like a fool!

Hi Cheryl H,

We apologize for the inconvenience. You can place orders online few days ahead of your requested delivery or pick up time. Normally, we forward orders to restaurants soon as it enters our system. However, if the restaurant is still closed there'll be no way for them to receive it which might have happened in your case. Please reach out to us and give us a call at our CS hotline at: 630-776-3590 if you have further questions.

Total scam! We have a contract with beyond menu! They have to process credit card payments, that online customers make.We, as a restaurant have to cook and deliver the food. They did not send our last check for $520! We did our part - the ordered food was cooked and delivered on time. Now SARFINO'S PIZZA must file a small claim in the court to get paid. ALL THAT WASTED TIME AND MONEY! AND NOW WASTING MORE TIME TO FIGHT FOR OUR CHECK! BEYOND MENU IS A SCAM!

Tip for consumers:
DON'T USE BEYOND MENU!THERE ARE MANY OTHER SITES THAT ARE NOT SCAM!

My girlfriend hired them for our restaurant and they kept making shady requests for access to our actual business listing. We called them and told them to stop, so they found a WORK AROUND and stole the business listing and revoked all our access and put their own website in there. SUPER SHADY BUSINESS. And now we have to wait to get access back to our OWN BUSINESS. BEWARE.

Hi Isa L.,

Please be advised that for anyone to gain access on a particular google listing, a Google code is needed to gain access on it and these google code postcards are sent only to the restaurant's address. Unless your restaurant provided us that code and we entered it on Google then that's the only time we can gain access on your restaurant's Google page and as of this writing there's no other work around on this one. In short, unless the code that was sent to your store was given to us. We hope we were able to clarify your misconception on this matter.

STOP DOING BUSINESS WITH THIs COMPANY. This is my first Yelp ever, this Company is a fraud. Beyond menu approached many times to work with them and I refused. Last week my staff received an order and filled it, like other companies they will process the payment and send it to us. So I called BEYOND MENUE to confirm payment they gave me a credit card, when I ran the credit card for $60.49 it was an invalid account. I called Beyond Menu again and again and they said that the manager will call me back. They gave me Neil's, Philip, Lean, lily, and Nadia as managers. After one week, Neil called and said that he cannot paid me. This company is a fraud, thief and a con. DO NOT DO BUSINESS with this company. Why would you take the credit card if you are not going to run it? Well I believed they did run it and found that the card was no good. I will survive this 60.00 but Neil and the others will fail and I will pursue legal action.

I partnered my business with this company to increase business flow... I allowed them to use my Google business page... instead they claimed my business page as they own it... when I told them that I don't want to do business with them and return my Google business page they denied my request. Its been 3 weeks I have been calling them all I get is bunch of lies and excuses. Please stay away from this company they lack integrity and business ethics. No wonder they have very poor rating... they are causing loss of business... it's embarrassing that I am pleading them to give me back my Google business page.
