I ordered their grilled mahi mahi plate on 8-5-2023 at 7:42pm and the fish was probably mishandled and not stored cold enough and not served fresh. I'm guessing it was not even mahi mahi. It smelled fishy through the takeout container as soon as we picked up
the bag and while walking to the car and tasted very fishy even with the tartar sauce. I should have listened to my inner voice and turned right around and asked for something else but I ate it and within an hour developed itchy hives on my face, ears and chest. It's called Scombroid fish poisoning. I had to go to the pharmacy to pick up calamine lotion as the Benadryl 50mg and Tylenol 500mg I took at home did not stop and soothe the itching hives fast enough.
