I ate there a couple weeks ago with my husband and it took some time for the server to get to us. She explained that they were short staffed, and she was slammed (understandable). We placed our orders, and I had informed her of my severe nut allergy. She told me she'd let the kitchen know and it would be safe for me to eat. I usually had good experiences with Original Joes. The food came out and looked delicious. We were very hungry (the food was fairly timely), and we started to eat. Within about 15-20 minutes, I started to have an allergic reaction. I stopped eating, and my husband attempted to get the bill so we could leave as quickly as possible. As the server was busy, it took her some time. I explain to her that I am in the beginning phases of an allergic reaction to something in the food, and she then tells me that they could not guarantee the prevention of cross contamination with nuts. This was after I had ordered food, informed her, and eaten the food I thought was safe. I told her while I was leaving that it is good to know those things before I order because it could mean the difference between life and death for some people. I was horrifically ill that night and survived (and was lucky). But this place is not nut-allergy friendly. Be careful, fellow allergy sufferers!
