• Handling of my complaint about having been poisoned by their food.

“My family and I have been eating at the mesquite tree for years (having grown up in sierra vista and my mom still lives there). We've always had fairly good service and food, with the occasional slip. However, this past march 3, 2007, after we ate dinner and shared their bowl of salad, carafe of water and breaded zucchini, we all became severely ill from, what I believe to have been, food poisoning. We were all violently sick and confined to our beds and bathrooms until the following Monday afternoon. I also had to cancel my patients because I could not drive back to phoenix on Sunday and was still feeling queasy through Tuesday afternoon. Now, I appreciate that restaurants are susceptible to the possibility of food-borne bacteria. After all, it is a restaurant. Unfortunately, when I spoke with Scott, one of the managers on duty, he offered only to have us return for a second chance and we'd be given free appetizers. Free appetizers!? That's what patrons get when the meal is served an hour late. Not when a family suffers excruciating pain from having been poisoned. And yes, I filed a complaint with the health department as well.”
