Ellis Island is not a favorite restaurant of mine. In fact, I think they suck, after eating there 1 time and attempting to eat there a second.: http://lasvegasbadger.blogspot.com/2012/05/ellis-island-casino-and-brewery-you.html
Well, the Clark County health inspectors decided to check out Ellis Island and they were shut down for a day because of horrid conditions.
From Channel 13's Dirty Dining: Here's one we haven't come across since we began our Dirty Dining reports. This week's restaurant actually kicked health inspectors off their property. But, as Contact 13 Chief Investigator Darcy Spears reports, that didn't stop them from being shut down.
The pictures really do tell the story of Ellis Island restaurant's 60-demerit closure.
Parts of the eatery inside the Koval Lane casino looked like a scene from a slasher movie. Inspectors found excessive, old food debris caked on equipment and splashed-on walls, doors, ceilings -- just about everywhere they looked.
All the images make it hard to imagine what was actually clean.
And check out what health inspectors documented in their report.
They wrote, "During the inspection, the person in charge came to the table where inspectors were writing their report and told them they had to leave because Ellis Island was private property and inspectors were not allowed to be on their property."
That got restaurant management called into the District's version of the principal's office -- a "supervisory conference" with Health District higher-ups.
Before getting kicked out, inspectors documented multiple violations for lack of hand-washing.
They also found employees doing some illegal dumping of degreaser, grey water and garbage into the storm drain.
As for the food, the cottage cheese was supposed to be enjoyed by Oct. 6. But inspectors found it in the fridge three weeks later.
The red sauce on the pizza and some stew were also expired. And so was deli meat, which inspectors found coated with a white substance. The sour cream had a yellow substance on it, along with a crumbling texture and no date. http://www.ktnv.com/news/local/177746751.html
The day after they were closed, they were re-inspected and got an A rating.
Yeah, I don't feel sorry for them.
