Abstract
ABSTRACTThis study assesses the direct influence of food quality and e-service quality on customer loyalty toward online food delivery (OFD) service and its indirect influence through the mediation of customer satisfaction and perceived value. This study uses a survey of 405 OFD service customers from Bandung, Indonesia. By applying variance-based partial least squares to evaluate the proposed model, this study confirms the direct effect of food quality on online loyalty, but not e-service quality. Further, this study discloses the partial mediation role of customer satisfaction and perceived value on the relationship between both food quality and e-service quality on online loyalty toward OFD services.

Summary
The progress in internet technology which facilitates the e-commerce activities has altered the behaviour of both consumers and firms. Recent development shows that food has become one of the most preferred shopping and is growing rapidly, 12% per year (Chang et al, 2014).This development is an opportunity as well as a challenge for restaurants, as it creates a fierce competition. In this challenging environment, having loyal customers is imperative for online business firms (Pee, Jiang, & Klein, 2018)
