“Ate chicken tikka samosas and a handful of freeze dried blueberries. A couple hours later I’m violently projectile vomiting like the exorcist but red instead of green. Not sure which of the two items caused me to become ill but I did not eat or drink anything else (just water)... See More recently, so no doubt it was one of the two. ”

“I was very ill for 24 hours, constant vomitting. ”

“Ate toxic salad bowl from there ”

“The oysters probably were the culprit and caused non-stop vomiting for 12 hours straight. I was bedridden with fatigue for the next two days. ”

“1.5 hours and diarrhea 4 times ”

“chicken noodle I ate a nissin cup noodle at 10 pm after about 4-5 hours I felt my stomach hurt and my heart started to jump very heavily. ”

“Stomach cramps, followed by vomiting and diarrhea, next day. 4 of us all ate there ”

“Probably a chicken burrito but not certain 1 person ; about two hours after eating ”

“I got sick from eating the salmon there ”

“A salad from there had works in it and I had eaten it before I noticed I was vomiting and had diarrhoea  Just me I ordered via Deliveroo , I ate parts of the salad before noticing the small light brown worms laying dead or lettuce and cucumbers about 40... See More minutes after words I had pains and the urge to go to the bathroom and ended up vomiting and having diarrhoea the next morning  ”

“I had Salmon and Broccoli with a side of zucchini noodles. It came in a white sauce that looked funny. I had one table spoon amount of the noodles and then instantly felt nauseous. I returned it and went home, my stomach hurt all the way home and I was... See More basically either vomiting or having diarrhea the rest of the evening. Today is a new day and I woke up with my stomach still in pain and I'm still slightly nauseous. (I'm not pregnant) ”

“My father and his two friends got food from there. All three got sick (nausea, vomiting, cramps, diahrrea about an hour after eating. The friends got better after a few days, but dad got worse.
Steadily worse.
Over time he was vomiting everything he ate and could only handle fluids.... See More Over the next few weeks he had the following: Increased abdominal pain, diahrrea, vomiting, dehydration, lethargy.
Dad kept getting worse, he thought It might be stomach flu, but I didn't. Dad missed Doctor's appointments (he's on dialysis) on and off, for about a month. He got so sick he missed 2 appointments in a row and hadn't had dialasys for 5 days - which is VERY BAD.
With his dialasis, he sometimes got sick after, but this was different. He was literally screaming in pain and delerious.
They took him away in an ambulance, screaming in agony. He stayed in hospiral 11 days.
Turned out he had an abdominal obstruction and severe inflammation and infection, caused by.....severe food poisoning. They put him on an I.V, had to sedate him, give him strong pain meds, shoved a tube up his nose and into his bowrls. They drained several LITERS of infected fluid from his intestines. They told me that if he'd waited one more day, he'd have died. Died.
This all goes back to the day he went to there. They have always been crappy; missing more thsn one item, wrong change and more than once my hamburger or egg mcmuffin was ice cold and so stale, it seemed like it was in the first stages of rigor mortis. Plus the fries were burned more than once and I'd gotten attitude (from regular staff, not the msnagers) whenever I had to go back and fix the issue (I'd stopped going there way before my dad got sick).
I don't know if any others have suffered food poisoning and/or dysentery at the hands of this particular reasturant, but I wouldn't be surprised.
But, after ALL THIS, nobody I know will even go near that place again!!! ”
