Food and health inspectors closed Bawarchi Biryanis following a health inspection initiated by a complaint.
The May 1 inspection of the Indian-focused eatery located at 10190 West Sample Road uncovered 15 violations, including live roaches and weevils, improper food storage temperatures, and unsanitary kitchen conditions.
According to health officials, there was evidence of significant roach activity throughout the kitchen during the inspection, including live roaches under cooking equipment, near sinks, and in storage areas, as well as multiple dead roaches in various locations, including the kitchen entrance and near food preparation areas.
The report notes that the restaurant received a warning on February 13 after live weevils were found in a sugar container during an inspection.
The discovery of improperly stored food items led to an immediate “Stop Sale” order, issued after several cooked and raw ingredients were found stored at unsafe temperatures, posing a severe risk of foodborne illness.
Notable items such as cooked chicken, lamb, goat, and cheese were held at temperatures well above the safety threshold of 41 degrees Fahrenheit.
The inspection report also noted an accumulation of debris and grease on kitchen floors and cooking equipment, an ice buildup in a cooler, and a need for a certified food service manager on duty at the time of inspection.
Additionally, the inspection noted that the restaurant should have provided proof of required state-approved employee training for some staff members.
The restaurant management began corrective actions during the inspection, including cleaning and sanitizing affected areas. The extent of the violations led to the immediate closure of the establishment to protect public health.
Bawarchi Biryanis will remain closed until a follow-up inspection confirms that all health standards are met and the violations have been adequately addressed.
