I have three tables and I would like to select from the tables without producing duplicates.
The table are as follows:
Customers
id | name | lastName
---------------------------------------
1 | john | doe
2 | helen | keller
Orders
The userID column is a foreign key that references John Doe, so John orders 3 items.
id | userID | order
---------------------------------------
1 | 1 | pizza
2 | 1 | pasta
3 | 1 | lasagna
CustomerRating
The userID column is a foreign key that references John Doe, so John leaves 5 reviews.
id | userID | rating | comment
-------------------------------------------------
1 | 1 | 5/5 | was good
2 | 1 | 5/5 | excellent
3 | 1 | 4/5 | great
4 | 1 | 4/5 | great
5 | 1 | 4/5 | great
How would I select from the 3 tables where I can get a return results that look like this?
id | name | lastName | order | rating
-----------------------------------------------------------------
1 | john | doe | pasta | 5/5
| | | pizza | 5/5
| | | lasagna | 4/5
| | | | 4/5
| | | | 4/5
I've tried joining these tables, but since John has left 5 reviews and only ordered 3 times, the id, name,lastName, and order columns gets filled with duplicate data.
Thanks!

I don't have any experience in MySQL but I assume that it works similar to MSSQL.
So the format in which you are expecting the output is not possible. You can rather get the order and rating column values as comma separated
Here is a similar kind of question that might help you
including example based on link
try something like this
SELECT Customers.id, Customers.name, Customers.lastName,
GROUP_CONCAT(Orders.order) OrderedDishes,
GROUP_CONCAT(CustomerRating.rating) RatingsGiven
FROM
..... rest of your query .....
