A Pittsburgh-area bar and restaurant was hit with 10 violations during a recent inspection by state health officials.
The Department of Agriculture’s Bureau of Food Safety has ruled Kellie’s Creekside Bar & Grill “out of compliance” after an inspection on Friday.
Some of the violations include food debris observed in areas like the mounted fry cutter, table mounted can opener and deli slicer.
“Black and pink organic matter” was found around an ice machine at the bar with “visible debris inside of the dispenser spigots of the slushie machine.”
A dead roach and dead wasp were found inside a popcorn machine.
Several items were found without date marks.
Several cleaning items were found stored above or on the same shelf with food or equipment.
The front door of the restaurant was found in disrepair with a gap between door and a gap on the bottom of the back door which can lead to rodents, pests and other critters getting in the facility.
The facility also lost its certified food safety employee over three months ago and continues to operate without one.
Some of the violations need to be corrected by May 11, others by June 1.
