A woman is warning others to watch their drinks after she says hers was drugged at a popular Boston restaurant.

The incident happened at the Legal Sea Foods location in the Seaport District, according to 32-year-old Jamie Brotsky.

She says she was sitting alone at the bar drinking her water when her vision started to blur.

Brotsky says she was able to leave right away and catch an Uber home, staying on the phone with her dad the whole way.

"I'm really lucky that I knew the signs and I got home," she told NBC10 Boston. "But that doesn't happen for everybody. And we know the realities of what can happen."

She took to TikTok with her story, urging people to be cautious.

"If it could help at least one person, then I'm happy I shared my story," Brotsky said.

Legal Sea Foods said in an Instagram post that it learned of the customer's concern via social media and immediately launched an investigation into the matter.

"We were able to contact our guest to offer support and gather additional information and are working closely with local as well as state authorities on a full investigation," the statement read, in part.

"Our guests' safety and security are always our number one priority," the statement continued. "Our teams are trained and certified to ensure safe, welcoming and respectful environments for our patrols and team members alike.
