There are enough viruses around that cause gastroenteritis that one cannot be sure that a restaurant's food has caused an attack unless several unrelated persons, with only a meal there in common, are afflicted. I had an experience with a virus some years ago that I was sure could be traced to a restaurant-- but no one else reported a problem and the local public health people assured me that it was just coincidence. A single case in a single evening is probably just bad luck. It is a good idea to report these things to the local authorities; they do keep track, and a pattern will be detected and dealt with.
