An Orange County pizza restaurant was shut down in the week of May 2-8, according to data from the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation.

I Love New York Pizza Salad Burger at 6607 S. Semoran Blvd. Suit 106 in Orlando was shut down after inspectors found 20 violations during a May 6 inspection.

There are 12 basic, five intermediate, and three high priority violations.

High-priority violations included roach activity and food safety violations. Intermediate violations were for encrusted material on a can opener, an expired food manager certification and a cooler soaked with food residue.

The restaurant was shut down on May 6.

Inspectors returned on May 7 and found only five violations. Two were basic, two were intermediate, and one was a high-priority violation. The restaurant was not reopened at that time. While a number of violations were corrected, roach activity was still an issue. Additionally, there was no food manager on duty although there were four or more employees engaged in food prep.

On a second May 7 inspection, four violations were found but none was a high priority.

The restaurant was allowed to reopen but inspectors said a follow-up inspection would be required.

The Orlando Sentinel reached out for comment from the restaurant, but did not hear back by publication.

For the week, Orange County led Central Florida counties the most warnings and complaints with seven, down from the 20 cited the week previous. Two more were given in Osceola, down from three; five in Seminole, identical to the previous week’s total; and none in Lake County, down from one issued the week previous. Warnings given with required follow-up inspections could lead to a business being shut down if problems remain.

In surrounding counties, three warnings or complaints were filed in Volusia, three in Brevard, five in Polk, and two in Sumter.

You can view recent restaurant inspections below for all of Central Florida for the last 30 days. Those with emergency orders were shut down because of high-priority violations and only reopened after follow-up inspections signed off on those violations.
