A Tennessee woman out for a steak dinner informed her server she had a “severe” allergy to lemons, immediately after which she was served two dishes in a row containing lemons, sending her to the hospital in anaphylactic shock, according to a million-dollar lawsuit filed in Nashville federal court.
In it, Katherine Lamb-Jones says staff at a LongHorn Steakhouse in Madison, Tennessee, ignored her multiple requests for a lemon-free meal, resulting in, among other things, physical and emotional pain, mental anguish, and significant medical expenses.
