They Brought the Wrong Dish
That isn't what you ordered — saying so politely.
- Them
Here you go, one grilled salmon.
- You
Sorry, I think I ordered the chicken.
- Them
Oh, my apologies. Let me check the order.
- You
No problem. The chicken with salad, please.
- Them
You're right, that was my mistake. I'll fix it now.
- You
Could you take the salmon back, please?
- Them
Of course. The chicken will be out shortly.
- You
Thanks for sorting it out so quickly.
