Long John Silver's Restaurants Complaint - Filthy, nasty shop

Complaint
Review by austinlindy on 2010-03-01
SANTA ROSA, MINNESOTA -- Stopped at kfc/ long john silvers in Santa Rosa. The shop was so filthy and nasty. Kids fooling around, messing up orders and the food was nasty. If the health department walked in it would have been closed down it was so bad, especially the food prep area. Someone needs to take control here before someone gets really sick. It has put me off Long John Silvers for good.

Yet, you still ate their food.

good point

if it's so dirty that you think the health department would close it down, why would you ever put something they make into you mouth and swallow?

He never actually did say that he 'ate' at this restaurant. One could assume he did, but if he was like me in those circumstances he would have walked right back out.

actually...
"messing up orders and the food was nasty."

They wouldn't have known the food was nasty had they not eaten.

I been to LSJ a couple of times I hate seafood, so all I got was chicken and fries not bad for a fast food fish joint.

But if the place is a mess and the prep area is nasty why would u eat there?

did YOU contact the local health department and file a complaint??

If it was as bad as he described to the point where someone could get sick, I probably would have. Forget talking to the manager.

There's not really enough details, you just say the food prep area was nasty. What you think is nasty might be normal food scraps that happen when you PREP FOOD in that area. It happens OP. The store having kids running around shouldn't reflect poorly on the store, but the parents who don't watch them.

I always heard the statement that if you went into the kitchen of a fine dining restaurant, you would not want to eat there. True, food preparation is not a particularly appetizing experience, and fast food sometimes appears really disgusting. However, if you are familiar with the process, you know what is normal and what is over the top. The OP may feel it was filthy, and I may look at it and say, "Another day in Paradise." ROFL

then again sometimes i wonder how people's individual kitchens would hold up to the health codes.

i use to know where to go online - for VA beach at least - to find the most recent health code violations. been a while since i looked at them, so it'll take some time to find the best web page for it
