San Diego County public health officials continued to investigate a salmonella outbreak Friday linked to Aladdin Mediterranean Café in Clairemont.

County epidemiologists identified 14 “confirmed and probable cases” associated with the two-day outbreak, which began April 25.

    The affected individuals range in age from 18 to 79, with five people sickened enough to require hospitalization, according to the county.

    Aladdin, on Clairemont Mesa Boulevard, voluntarily closed when notified of the situation to allow health officials to conduct testing and interview staff.

    “No source of the outbreak has been determined, however once the investigation is complete and it is determined there is no ongoing risk, the restaurant will be cleared to resume operation,” county officials said in a statement.

    The county’s Public Health Services and Environmental Health and Quality Department are conducting the investigation.

    Salmonella causes an infection called Salmonellosis. Symptoms include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea that might have blood or mucous, abdominal cramps and fever. They generally begin 12 to 72 hours after eating contaminated food.

    Illness from salmonella can last 4 to 7 days. Most people recover without treatment.

    As of Monday, the county has identified 184 cases of Salmonellosis in 2025 across the region. In 2024, there were 753 cases, compared with 685 in 2023 and 683 in 2022.
