What the surprise visit found
Severe · health hazard
Live pests or an infestation
Pests can contaminate food and surfaces with germs, so this is a real concern.
LA County code F023 · 11 pts
Serious · real illness risk
Hot water below the required temperature
The hot water at a sink was not hot enough, which makes proper handwashing and dish sanitizing harder.
LA County code F053 · 4 pts
Serious · real illness risk
Cutting boards and surfaces not sanitized
Dirty food-contact surfaces can spread germs between foods, so this one matters for safety.
LA County code F014 · 4 pts
Also noted
Moderate · lower risk
Handwashing sink not stocked or reachable
Workers need a working, supplied sink to wash up, and missing soap or access makes good hand hygiene harder.
