Vienna Restaurant Inspections: Debris Buildup In Ice Machine

Health inspectors recommended weekly cleaning of the ice machine after finding the violation.

Ever wonder how clear your local restaurants are? Town of Vienna and other Fairfax County restaurants regularly undergo health inspections, with the frequency depending on the type of food served and how it is prepared. While violations like malfunctioning refrigerators and food that's not warm or cold enough often pop up, health inspectors sometimes find more critical violations.

"In our experience, it is unrealistic to expect that a complex, full-service food operation can routinely avoid any violations," notes the Virginia Department of Health.

Here are full results for the latest inspections around Vienna and Oakton. Of note, Neisha Thai Cuisine was cited for debris in an ice machine. Health inspectors provided tips on cleaning the ice machine.
