Ginseng Korean BBQ II at 3765 Las Vegas Blvd. S. came within one point of being shut down by the Southern Nevada Health District after a routine inspection on Tuesday, April 14.

Inspectors issued a 40-demerit grade after finding that the staff didn’t properly wash their hands, food was unprotected from potential contamination, thermometers were inaccurate, pest were infesting the restaurant and more.
