Kelly’s Cajun Grill (Tucson Mall Food Court) (February)
4500 N. Oracle Road
- History: Failed inspections in 2011 and 2014.
- What the inspector saw: The restaurant received a “provisional” rating on a Feb. 11 inspection for six critical violations, including cross-contamination, food held at unsafe temperatures, dirty equipment stored as clean and a lack of employee knowledge about food-borne illnesses. The inspector found a spray bottle of chemical degreaser touching clean dishes and a bottle of cough medicine stored above a food-preparation area.
- Follow-up: Failed Feb. 22; passed Feb. 29.
- Response: “We have addressed all of the food safety violations and we received a passing grade on the follow-up inspection,” said
- Stephen Yeung
- , vice president of Kelly’s parent company. “The manager was given a written warning for allowing these food safety violations to occur and is required to retake a food manager course. The company’s policies and procedures were not followed and we are deeply embarrassed by our poor inspection.”
