Food Truck Shut Down by Health District

Quality Food Service #2, the Mexican food truck based 29 N. 30th St., was shut down by the Southern Nevada Health District after a routine inspection on June 17 found an imminent health hazard.

SNHD health inspectors found a lack of adequate refrigeration, which caused the immediate shutdown.

Quality Food Service demerits

Health inspectors also issued 20 demerits, which included foods held at the wrong temperature, food exposed to potential contamination, ineffective pest control measures and more.

The Mexican food truck — which specializes in homemade salsas, carne asada and fish tacos —  was shut down twice in 2014 by SNHD.

The health district conducts unannounced inspections at least once a year. Inspections are posted online about five days after the inspection. The Southern Nevada Health District routinely shuts down restaurants that receive more than 40 demerits. Restaurants have the option of requesting a re-inspection before the next scheduled inspection.
