We have been loyal to this restaurant for almost a year, until my partner and I got violently ill, and three days later have yet to be healthy again. We had 101-102 fevers after eating this sushi. Our neighbor had breakfast, lunch and dinner with us, but she opted out of eating sushi. She was the only one not violently ill. I even had to cancel a business trip because I was too faint and feverish to fly.Please contact the Sonoma County Environmental Health board or your district manager or supervisor if you become ill after eating here. We will never go back. The Environmental Health Specialist let us know that there are not appropriate cleaning stations at this restaurant.
I now have to make assumptions as to how we have gotten so ill, since the county cannot make that conclusion. The two hand-washing stations for sushi preparers were clogged and had no soap or cleaning supplies. Meaning that the only area for the people working here to clean their hands after handling raw meat and serving ppl was in a back station. This is most likely how we got to be so violently ill -- from someone preparing raw fish with dirty hands.
The idea of this makes me want to throw up all over again, but unfortunately, I haven't been able to eat solid food since Saturday and it is now Tuesday as I am writing this review.
I'm sure they will try to clean up their act since they were visited by the health board, and i drove by today and saw that they are hiring a new sushi chef, but this is so unacceptable to run a business in this way. We are both young and healthy, but if we weren't, this could have hospitalized both of us.
Please choose another restaurant, one that never cuts corners on sanitation when delivering raw fish to people. | Symptoms: Nausea, Diarrhea, Vomiting, Fever
