Excellent service and food of the best quality!

My order was processed quickly and efficiently and arrived in Sweden after a few days. All the food was well packaged and of the highest quality. After the delivery, I was contacted by ItalyBite because they wanted to know if everything was fine and make sure I was satisfied. I will certainly order again from them!

Perfect Shipment to New York

WONDERFUL communication throughout the entire order and even after. Everything was packed to perfection and arrived quickly to the United States in New York! My Grandmother was so happy to open it and it truly made her Christmas.

This is a fantastic service

This is a fantastic service. Priced just right, delivery is superb and the food is amazing. I would recommend you order I did and it’s fantastic. I’ll be making up hampers for my family this Christmas and these are all just what I needed to add a little Italian style! I’ll be back in the new year!

So happy

I am so thrilled to have received my shipment in Canada 🇨🇦 for an order I placed this week!

I can’t wait to surprise my mom at Christmas with Ceci Nero! It’s been a few years since we’ve had some!

Shipping costs are a little high. Hope we can better that 🙏🏻

Thank you!

Great Experience First Time Ordering

Italy Bite ticks all the boxes for a five star review: timely response, great customer service and fast delivery of delicious food.

Before placing an order for international shipping, I had a question. Their email was easily available on their website so I emailed them. They responded promptly, and were friendly and helpful. I placed my order and the communication regarding my order and shipping details was again promptly emailed with all the tracking details. They used a reputable shipper, so when an issue arose during transit regarding the delivery address, I could communicate immediately with the carrier and correct the delivery address. Not only did my package filled with delicious Italian food arrive within days, I received a followup email to make certain I had received it at the correct address.

Having traveled often throughout Italy, I was familiar with the food items I ordered, and my experience with Italy Bite was like having a friend to go shopping for me in all my favorite places. This pandemic has made me more resourceful when it comes to shopping, and Italy Bite is one discovery that I will definitely continue using even after we are all globetrotting again. Great job Italy Bite!

Delivery of the order to Finland took 9…

Delivery of the order to Finland took 9 days, instead of 72-92h, and they were not even delivered home, but pick-up-point.
The products were packed in a cardboard box, not a styroxbox, as promised.
All products were warm for many days, i.e. inedible.

Reply from Italy Bite

Hello,
We will state the facts to allow the reader to gain an objective idea of the situation:
On the 16th of October, the client placed an order of € 158.50 from Helsinki, Finland
On the next appropriate working day, Monday 19th October, the parcel was shipped
The parcel was delivered to a “pick-up point” on the 27th October
The client retrieved the parcel on the 28th October

We are at fault, since, given that parcels are shipped on a Monday, they usually reach Helsinki by Friday. Therefore, we had a four-day delay (including the weekend).
We profusely apologised for the delay and asked the client on several occasions what we could do to resolve the situation.
As a matter of fact, this situation is unusual to us (around 98% of our clients deem us Excellent or Great). The client NEVER gave us a constructive answer.

We also want to focus on some details that the client overlooked in the review:
- The customer chose the standard shipping option (spending € 0.00 for shipping); with the express shipping option (more costly), the parcel would have been delivered in Helsinki within 24/48h, as the last review on Google from the exact same city of Helsinki confirms
-The customer purchased 22% of non-perishable foods (pasta and canned foods), 56% of aged products (cold cuts and cheeses that can easily withstand a temperature up to 18 °C), therefore 78% of items were absolutely edible. Only 22% of products were temperature sensitive. We would have gladly reimburse the client, if the client had responded to our proposals in a constructive way.
- The customer does not mention the free products worth around €15 that we added to the order, given that the customer used the newsletter coupon

We wish to conclude with two remarks.
1. We are going through a difficult period, in which companies are struggling to work remotely and many employees are quarantined due to COVID (including couriers), a bit of understanding for the delay would have been normal and expected.
2. Not everyone is worthy of our service quality and our products.

==============================

Ciao,
riportiamo i fatti in modo il lettore possa farsi un’idea oggettiva:
Il 16 ottobre il cliente effettua un ordine da 158,50 € da Helsinki Finlandia
Il primo giorno utile, lunedì 19 ottobre, il pacco viene spedito
Il pacco viene consegnato al "punto di ritiro” il 27 ottobre
Il 28 ottobre il cliente ritira il pacco

Siamo in difetto, di norma i pacchi ad Helsinki vengono consegnati entro venerdì partendo lunedì.
Quindi abbiamo un ritardo di ben quattro giorni (weekend incluso).
Di questo ci siamo abbondantemente scusati con il cliente, chiedendo più volte se avessimo potuto fare qualcosa per risolvere il disagio.
Questa situazione, infatti, non ci appartiene (circa il 98% del nostro pubblico ci reputa Exellent o great).
Non abbiamo MAI ricevuto una risposta costruttiva da parte del cliente.

Vorremmo però porre l’attenzione su alcuni particolari omessi nella recensione:
- Il cliente ha scelto l’opzione standard (spendendo 0,00 € per la spedizione), con la express (più costosa) il pacco sarebbe arrivato ad Helsinki in 24/48h come può confermare l’ultima recensione ricevuta su google proprio dalla stessa città: Helsinki
- Il cliente ha acquistato il 22% di prodotti non deperibili (pasta ed invasettati), il 56% di prodotti stagionati (salumi e formaggi ai quali aumenti fino a 18°C non creano oggettivi problemi) pertanto il 78% della merce presente nell’ordine era assolutamente edibile. Solo il 22% dei prodotti era sensibile in modo importante ad aumenti della temperatura. Tra le altre cose, saremmo stati pronti a rimborsarli se solo il cliente avesse risposto alle nostre proposte in modo costruttivo.
- Il cliente non menziona i circa 15,00 euro di prodotti omaggio che abbiamo aggiunto in virtù del coupon newsletter che ha utilizzato

Concludiamo con due osservazioni.
1. In un periodo in cui tutte le aziende stanno facendo i salti mortali per lavorare da remoto e molti dipendenti sono in quarantena per il Covid (corrieri compresi) un pò di comprensione per un ritardo sarebbe stata quantomeno umana.
2. Non tutti si meritano il nostro livello di servizio ed i nostri prodotti.
