1 /5 Ana F: I’ve been coming here since they first opened and have visited numerous times because we genuinely try to support local businesses. It was exciting to have a shabu place in San Bernardino. Unfortunately, after today, I will no longer be returning.
Within 10 minutes of being seated, I slipped and fell completely onto my back. There were no warning signs indicating the floor was wet or slippery. As a result of the fall, I injured my back, hip, elbows, wrist, knees, and neck. After I got up, the table next to where I fell even mentioned that the floors were very slippery.
What made the situation worse was the lack of care from management. The manager didn’t come to check on me until about 20 minutes later. Instead of showing concern, she told us that if we wanted a refund, we had to leave and then turned off our soups in the middle of our meal. She even scolded my husband for taking one bite of his food, which was completely unnecessary and unprofessional given the situation. It was very clear they wanted to take no accountability for their lack of proper floor safety and response.
I asked for an incident report, which she refused to provide. She claimed the owner was on the way and that I could wait to speak with him. She also blamed the rain, saying everything was wet, yet I didn’t even slip outside in the actual rain, only inside the restaurant. She then said their insurance would contact us, followed by saying the owner would call us by today. As of now, no one has contacted us.
This was extremely disappointing and unprofessional, especially considering I was physically injured on their premises. Supporting local businesses is important to us, but customer safety and accountability matter more
