Delivery times vary.  The average delivery time is usually 45-60 minutes, however for public safety reasons, we cannot guarantee delivery time.  Please take into consideration the prep time, drive time and weather conditions.

Is my order checked for accuracy prior to delivery?
For health reasons, we do not open and check your items. We go by the descriptions on the box and verify that the correct amount of boxes is delivered.  If your order is incorrect please call us within 30 minutes of delivery so we can correct any issues ASAP.

Do you deliver for restaurants not listed on the website?
No, but if you have a restaurant that you would like us to deliver from please tell the manager or owner about our service and have them contact us!

How do I pay?
We accept Cash, Visa & Mastercard. Corporate and House accounts are also available. 

My online bank statement shows a different total than my order?
Electronic credit card authorizations for restaurants always allow an additional 20% over the meal amount to permit the customer the option of adding a tip, or gratuity, to the transaction. This over-authorization amount is only an authorized amount.  Your card or account will only be charged for the amount you authorize at the time of delivery.

However, it may take a day or two for the additional authorized sum to be released by your credit card company. Some card processors may take as much as a week to release these funds.

In most cases this isn't an issue, as funds are secured from a revolving credit line. We understand that it can be inconvenient when the funds are being secured from a checking account or debit card, because it may limit access to these funds for a couple of days, but we cannot control this practice.

Can I use restaurant coupons?
We do not accept restaurant coupons, however, look for Harlem To Go coupons in the future.

But what if I want LOTS of food?
We offer affordable catering for large groups, meetings or parties! Please note that on catering items, each restaurant may have their own advance notice requirements.

Why don't you deliver from every restaurant in town?
We only deliver for restaurants with which we have a contractual relationship. We pride ourselves on having a thorough knowledge of our partner-restaurant's menus. This would be impossible if we claimed we could deliver from every restaurant in the area.

We always want to partner with good restaurants. If your favorite restaurant is not currently participating, mention us to their owner/manager and let them know you want us to deliver their food.

Why can't I cancel my online order?
We electronically transmit your order to the restaurant. Once received, they start to prepare it.

The not so fine print: Restaurant hours, menu items and descriptions, and prices are subject to change without notice. Please check your order carefully upon its arrival. Although we strive for perfection, mistakes happen, and the sooner we learn of them, the faster we can correct them.
