Yum, anyone else hungry in here.
To add more disgust to this topic, the County Health Dept reinspected this restaurant on 6/21, the day after the Dept ordered it closed. The Dept’s website says the restaurant was allowed to reopen, even though the 6/21 inspection once again found a major violation for the presence of rodents or vermin.
So cockroaches were apparently still present but it’s ok for the restaurant to open? That’s disgusting!
Hiiiiiuuuuuuuuuuuu
Obviously this restaurant does not care about it’s paying customers. Setting the tape trap is what you do on your own, instead of having a exterminator come in, and take care of the bug problem. I’m pretty sure when the Sushi Chefs stood behind the counter making your sushi they were also smashing cockroaches. Honestly would you go there knowing that the restaurant staff will mix cockroaches with food. Never, unless you want diarrhea.
Cockroaches? Really bad, especially since a lot of sushi isn’t cooked. Maybe the wasabi will do them in, but I wouldn’t count on it.
huh. Not sure what’s worse, dead cockroaches on sticky tape or uncooked fish on my plate.
dirty place shut them down for 30 days like the do bars for serving under age kids they will clean them up real quick !
Um, that’s just plain nasty. Makes me wonder what other restaurants in The Creek have roaches and rodents. I think I’ll stay home this summer and save some money.
That’s just disgusting. Obviously they knew about the roaches and just placed tape down. Lazy foolish owners/managers.
Cockroaches.
Name your favorite dining place. Yes they have them too.
Trust me. I know.
What’s with these Asian and Chinese and Japanese restaurants and their filthy foods habits. Disgusting.
Thinking the same thing. I have a friend who will never eat at Chinese restaurants after getting food poisoning. What’s going on
