“In the past i had ordered an item and it was made wrong so I phoned in and complained and was told that the restaurant would make a note of it and give me a discount the next time i ordered. I decided to take them up on the offer... See More a few days ago and placed my new order and was told it would be ready for pick up in 25 mins. I then recieved a call from them telling me they didnt have what i wanted in stock and what would i like in replacement(kinda weird why didnt they know at the time of my order that they didnt have what i asked for) so i told them what i would like. I ate my box and within 3-4 hours i started to feel really unwell and within another hour or so if ended up in the ER in excruciating pain with a fever and projectile vomiting. I was told that my case was one of the worst food poisoning they have seen in a while. I truley felt like i was going to die and the pain from vomiting all night made it feel my ribs had been broken and i even puked up blood from the trama to my stomach and esophagus. I will NEVER EAT AT THIS PLACE AGAIN and honestly want to boycott it. ”
