On 7.11.2023 my wife and I stopped here for dinner. I order Maine lobster and rock lobster. I ate my 2 maine lobsters and gave my wife the rock lobster. She didn't eat it thinking she would have it for our next dinner at home. Once we got home I felt nauseated and could feel my stomach ache. I ended up having diarrhea, vomiting and the next day had the same thing happen including a fever of 102.3. I called the restaurant and spoke with the manager on duty and told me he would have the kitchen manager call me. I'm still waiting for this return call.........Pretty sure it was the lobster...they still have not returned my call | Symptoms: Nausea, Diarrhea, Vomiting, Fever, Stomach Pain

Hi, thanks for your comment. TIP: Eating lobsters can lead to serious food poisoning. Lobsters that eat toxic algae can pass toxins onto diners leading to Amnesic(ASP) or Paralytic(PSP) Shellfish Poisoning. In most cases, symptoms such as diarrhea and vomiting occur within 24 hours followed by headache and memory loss. Gave a great day!
worst food poisoning I ever had was from Red Lobster a few years back. Didn't feel well for months!
