Fiery Deli - Burleigh Waters

Tried the new Chermside store on Thursday night. Still quite a few wrinkles to iron out it seems. Pros: Great to see a range of vegetarian options. Meals came out quickly once we ordered, due to the nature of the food (a lot of it is pre/slow cooked) the kitchen can plate up quickly. Arepas were tasty according to those that ordered them. Cons: The store had very loud music playing thorugh a single speaker to broadcast across the entire restaurant. Unfortunately it was too loud to have a conversation without shouting - the noise also made it difficult to order. We suggested turning it down a bit, especialy when the live music started up outside, but the waitress advised that she didn't know how to do that. Ruined what otherwise could have been a nice night out for the family. Portion sizes still need sorting out - our large El plato ($36) was exactly the same size as the neighbouring table's small ($22). The wrong drinks came out as well, but I suspect that was because the waitress couldn't hear our order. Pulled chicken was really quite bland. Side didn't come out - had to ask for it and was advised that it was already on the main meal plate  (proved difficult to find). Not sure we will return. Having tried a couple of other restaurants in the precinct, there is better and equal value and good food to be had elsewhere in more comfortable surrounds.

Food was okay nothing special, mix up with my order and ended up getting the wrong meal multiple times and once I finally got served my meal I was never provided with the side. Pretty disappointing considering I paid $24.50 for the meal and an extra $5.50 for the side I never received.

Ordered the large nachos, so so delicious especially with the chipotle sauce provided on the table. Probably not big enough for 2 by themselves and have to pay extra for sour cream but still recommend !

How could fiery deli improve? what a big question and I have the answer. let them begin training their team members on customer satisfaction, today afternoon my partner and were thrilled to another of chermsides fab restaurants but did that quickly change today on my partner and I sat at the fery deli chermside this was one of our biggest mistakes we made as the trendy looking atmosphere and very catering menu was totally shy through the total unresting team
