Pastrami Illness, Poor Sanitation - Bagel Nosh Deli, Santa Monica California

1629 Wilshire Boulevard, Santa Monica, 90403 California, United States

I have eaten at Bagel Nosh on other occasions, and it was fine. However, on 02/22/19, I became extremely ill, just 45 minutes after finishing my meal. I ordered hot pastrami and swiss, with mustard, on an egg bagel, with small side of potato salad. Nothing tasted or looked weird. I suspect it is an issue with sanitation. Probably somebody did not wash their hands in the kitchen after toileting or picking their nose. Symptoms came on abruptly and included, nausea, extremely bad diarrhea, severe stomach cramping and gas. It was very painful, and continued until the next day; lasting about 24 hours. As a result, I will no longer eat at this restaurant. They get 4 stars on Yelp, with lots of reviews. I would, now, give them a ZERO if possible. Any place that gives me food poisoning is off my list .... FOREVER! | Symptoms: Diarrhea, Fever, Nausea, Gas, Cramps
