Ashburn Restaurant Inspections: Six Violations At Two Locations

ASHBURN, VA — Officials from the Loudoun County Health Department inspected three food storage and preparation businesses in Ashburn from Feb. 9-15. Several locations were inspected, including two restaurants that combined for a total of six violations.

Due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, many inspections are being conducted virtually. So, the listed violations may not be an all-encompassing rundown of all the violations at a particular establishment.

Violations at restaurants typically focus on factors that can contribute to food contamination. The local health department also performs 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.
