Customer claims drink was ‘tampered with’ at Legal Sea Foods
The chain of restaurants said it was investigating the complaint.
Legal Sea Foods, a Boston-based chain of seafood eateries, was investigating an incident involving a beverage that was possibly ‘tampered with’ after a customer complained on social media.
The company posted a statement on Instagram on Oct. 7, stating that management was made aware of the complaint Sunday.
“On Sunday, Oct. 6, we were made aware, via social media, that one of our guests believes one of her drinks may have been tampered with during her visit to one of our Boston restaurants. We take such matters very seriously and immediately launched an investigation,” the post read.
The statement from Legal Sea Foods didn’t go into detail about which Boston location this possible incident occurred. There are multiple Legal Sea Foods locations in Boston, at the Logan International Airport, and in Massachusetts.
