John G's closed for one day by Health Dept.

Restaurants temporarily closed for rodent droppings

Cockroaches rooted around bags of flour and sugar, and rodents left droppings under canned goods at four South Florida restaurants ordered shut by state inspectors last week.

Those temporarily closed restaurants included John G’s Restaurant in Manalapan, Lantana Pizza in Lantana, Las Fajitas in Boca Raton and Los Gallitos Tortilleria and Panaderia in Lake Worth.

This never would have happened under The Giragos family when they owned and operated the restaurant for 46 years, first in the Lake Worth Beach Casino building, then, for the past eight years, at Manalapan's Plaza del Mar.

John G’s Restaurant, Manalapan
264 S. Ocean Blvd.

Ordered shut : Dec. 16, reopened Dec. 17

Why : 12 violations ( three high priority ), such as 34 rodent droppings found “under grill in kitchen,” behind the spare grill, on the ledge behind the kitchen sink, underneath shelving in the kitchen hallway and “under canned goods storage rack in hallway.” One state inspector witnessed an “employee eating in dishwashing area” and told them to eat in the dining room instead – and they complied. An inspector also discovered a “hole in [the] wall at bread dry storage” in the kitchen. The restaurant was allowed to reopen Dec. 17 with zero follow-up violations.
