Edo Japan, Famous Wok and Opa! of Greece were all ordered to close by AHS on Feb. 6 after inspectors found numerous live and dead cockroaches on pest control glue boards.

Officials also found “a build-up of grease and food debris on the floor and directly against the walls in hard-to-reach areas behind and under equipment.”

In its public report, AHS said all three restaurants must “immediately close” and pest control measures must be implemented.

The restaurants must also be thoroughly cleaned and damaged equipment needs to be replaced, AHS said.

Once the pest control company has given all clear, the restaurants need to provide a report outlining control measures and a “future pest management plan.”
