Frida Mexican Cuisine – Del Amo, Hawthorne Boulevard, Torrance, CA, United States

6 years ago

21438 Hawthorne Boulevard, Torrance, 90503 California, United States

This happened a few months back but I went to Frida and got the shrimp ceviche. After eating a few bites, I knew something was off so I stopped eating it. About four hours lately, I ended up getting food poisoning and throwing up. This was just the start of a three day period where I had a fever, threw up at least five more times, had stomach problems and couldn't eat anything, and had to sleep sitting up because I had such bad acid reflux. We ended up calling Frida to report this and they just shrugged their shoulders and said it was an isolated incident and it wasn't their problem. I won't eat here again after that response to the worst food poisoning I've ever had. Was very close to going to the doctor but my temperature stayed at 101 f for two days and then started to break on the third day. | Symptoms: Diarrhea, Fever, Nausea, Vomiting, Acid reflux
