An Ocala restaurant was shut down recently after a health inspector found an issue with roaches at the eatery.
The inspector visited Eggs Over Farmhouse Kitchen, located at 5855 S.E. 5th St. #5, on Wednesday, June 3 and found two high-priority and one basic violation, according to a report on file with the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation.
The inspector reported finding seven live roaches on a wheel and on the floor under a reach-in table on the cookline. Roach excrement and/or droppings also were found on the wheels of a reach-in cooler, the report says.
The inspector also found one dead roach on the floor near a bred rack and ordered the restaurant to close its doors at 11:14 a.m. The inspector returned to the eatery in the afternoon and found no violations, which allowed the restaurant to reopen at 3:01 p.m.
