Suspected food poisoning. Symptoms: Diarrhea, Nausea, Vomiting, Stomach Pain, Cramps, Chills
Suspected source: Improperly cooked meat or spoiled meat
Onset: 4 to 12 hours
Duration: Several days
Sick: 4 people
Additional information: 3/4 of us became violently ill the evening of 5/21/23 after eating here. We ordered... See More the 4 person meal; I believe it was the owner’s wife that may have served us: she was rude, acted as though we were an inconvenience, I had called ahead and had 3 great experiences prior. I do believe we acquired food poisoning from this restaurant, all of our stomachs have been “off” after getting violently sick latwr that evening; a 4th person was even given the left overs and they became sick that evening (our original 4th guest ate nothing but rice). For $201 + $25 tip (for an extremely rude server) THEN we get food poisoning?! no response from attempting to call or email the restaurant. Stay away, i believe they knowingly served us bad meat or knowingly didn’t cook it properly as I called ahead to ensure the staff would be cooking the meal (And for my Mom’s Birthday dinner). | Symptoms: Diarrhea, Nausea, Vomiting, Stomach Pain, Cramps, Chills See Less
