I went to 1/5 Nuevo on Friday with a few friends to try their lunch sets. I had the lasagna as a main and scallop salad as an appetizer while one of my friends ordered the blue cheese risotto with WALNUTS as a main and smoked salmon as an appetizer.While my lasagna was a large portion and decent (although none of us expected the scallops to actually be a salad as it clearly stated scallops on the menu), my friend's risotto came with PEANUTS instead of walnuts.

While my lasagna was a large portion and decent (although none of us expected the scallops to actually be a salad as it clearly stated scallops on the menu), my friend's risotto came with PEANUTS instead of walnuts. This was a shocking and irresponsible substitution on the restaurant's part as peanut allergy can be fatal. The menu clearly stated walnuts and any substitution should have been notified in advance or at least mentioned on serving! What happens if someone with a peanut allergy ate the risotto?
It was a great disappointment and ruined our entire lunch. It also made us wonder what other ingredients had been substituted without letting us know.
Service was fine but with such a shock, I don't think anyone in the group will be going back.
