IHOP Salmonella lawsuit information:

This outbreak is not connected to the Salmonella Saintpaul outbreak linked to tomatoes. For information about the Salmonella Saintpaul outbreak, please see the following: FDA Warning and CDC Salmonella Saintpaul Investigation.

According to the Amarillo Department of Public Health, at least 25 people have contracted Salmonella infections after eating at the International House of Pancakes (IHOP) in Amarillo, Texas located at I-40 and Western. The IHOP on Ross-Osage is not involved in the investigation.

Health officials have found the source of the Amarillo, Texas IHOP Salmonella outbreak, the warming bath that the restaurant used to keep the syrup warm.  Health officials found the outbreak-strain of Salmonella in a culture taken from the warming bath.  Interviews with IHOP employees revealed that syrup pitchers were not rinsed, washed or sanitized before refilling, and some of the 25 people sickened in outbreak were IHOP employees in charge of refilling syrup containers.

This microbiological and epidemiological evidence can be used in a lawsuit seeking money to compensate for medical expenses, lost income, pain and suffering and other damages. We have recently recovered compensation for victims of a Salmonella outbreak involving a restaurant. In that case, the food source of the outbreak was never pinpointed. Contact us about:

  • Expert witnesses in a Salmonella Lawsuit
  • Recovery of money to compensate for losses and pain and suffering
