Loudoun County health inspectors found a dead mouse, live roaches and pest droppings at one spot along with other eateries with violations.
ASHBURN, VA — Numerous restaurants in the Ashburn and Sterling area recorded violations during recent health department inspections so far in September. A few had pest-related violations involving rodents and roaches.
Violations at restaurants typically focus on factors that can contribute to food contamination. The local health department can also perform a re-inspection to ensure that possible violations have been corrected. For every observed violation, the inspector provides a specific corrective action that can be completed to rectify the violation.
Sometimes these are simple, and violations can be corrected during the course of the inspection. Some common violations may include foods hot holding or cold holding at improper temperatures, foods without dates marked, and sanitizer with improper amounts.
Here are restaurant inspection results in and around Ashburn and Sterling in late July from the Loudoun County Health Department. Of note, a Taco Bell location had a dead mouse, live roaches and mouse droppings. Other notable violations were rodent droppings at Aria Restaurant and Manhattan Pizza, moldy produce at Lcuky Strike Sterling and milk past the expiration date at Per Peri Original.
