Restaurant inspections in March and April show more problems at local eateries

Germophobes beware

By Will Collette

If you are getting sushi in South Kingstown, let your cat be your food tester

If you are a germophobe – afraid of germs – and like to go out to eat, you should probably never read the RI Department of Health inspections on food establishments.

This is the seventh in an on-going series of Progressive Charlestown articles reporting on those inspections. One thing I’ve noticed is that when a Health Department inspector comes to call, he or she will usually cite the establishment for violations. But not always, so a clean inspection is always worthy of note.

My other big takeaway is that if you are a sushi lover, as I am, and you order sushi in South Kingstown, you should probably ask them to cook it before they serve you. Sad to say, there are two more bad South Kingstown sushi reports in this installment. 

In the past, I have reported on the on-going sanitation issues at what used to be my favorite local sushi joint, Kabuki in Wakefield. This time, Kabuki is not on the list, but I think that’s only because the Health Department did not inspect them in March or April.

South County Hospital Coffee Shop - dinged with two bad inspections

I also discovered that if you go to visit someone at South County Hospital (Rhode Island’s top-rated hospital), you should probably stay away from their Coffee Shop unless you want to end up in a hospital bed.

You have to make your own decisions about how much an inspection report affects your decision to spend your money at a restaurant or food store. Your expectations about that establishment make a difference – I expect that if a restaurant is going to charge big bucks, they damned well better be clean, while I am willing to grant a lot more slack to a low-cost greasy spoon.

Haven Brothers - clean inspections since 2009

But as you’ll see, a number of establishments that show up in my reports are pretty high end – and dirty – while other more humble establishments are scrupulously clean. By way of comparison, Rhode Island’s most famous greasy spoon, the Haven Brothers food trailer in Providence, has not been cited by the Health Department for a violation since 2009.

There are almost 600 Charlestown, South Kingstown and Westerly[1] food establishments in the Health Department’s database. The Health Department’s small crew of inspectors can’t hit every one of them once a year, never mind once a month. In this installment, I include the reports on twelve establishments:

In Charlestown: the Old Mill Dinner (formerly the Gentleman Farmer), the Breachway Grill, Michael’s food store, the Charlestown Senior Citizens Center and Village Bakery.

In Westerly: Vetranos.

In South Kingstown: Estria, Matunuck Oyster Bar, Shogun, South County Hospital Coffee Shop, Belmont Market’s Sushi-Go and Trattoria Romana South.

The "new/old" Old Mill Dinner, the re-branded and re-vamped Gentleman Farmer, got its first Health Department inspection on May 2. 

The inspection did not go well with the issuance of four violations for sanitation and food safety problems. I didn't like the idea of the rodent droppings the inspector found or the unsanitary conditions. The old Gentleman Farmer was no poster child for food safety, but they only had three violations in all of last year.

The Breachway and Michael’s were both hit on April 22. The Breachway drew seven violations and Michael’s drew 5, all for sanitation and food safety issues. These bad reports are made worse by the fact both the Breachway and Michael’s were inspected on February 5, where the Breachway got 10 dings and Michael’s got 12. Some of the April 22 violations were repeats of the February 2 violations. 

That’s not good.

Charlestown’s Village Bakery was inspected on March 19 and got a clean report.

Though re-branded as East-West Market, it's still in the Health
Department database as Michael's

The Charlestown Senior Citizens Center was hit on April 22 along with the Breachway and Michael’s and was cited for four violations. When they were inspected on February 5, they had a clean report.

Vetranos in Westerly, which has been undergoing a major construction make-over, drew only one minor violation during its March 27 inspection.

Estria, a nice Greek place in the heart of Wakefield, makes this list for the first time, but not in a good way. They were inspected on March 24 and drew six violations.

The Matunuck Oyster Bar needs to clean up its act, literally. This is a great locavore’s delight, but they had a bad inspection report on February 13 with eight violations and have drawn three more on April 9. Gotta get that sorted out before the tourists flood in.

The upscale Trattoria Romana South in South County Commons makes my list for the first time by virtue of earning 11 Health Department violations as a result of their March 25 inspection.

South County Hospital – our state’s best hospital – needs to deal with its coffee shop. I ran their report largely as a whim and was disappointed to see that they were dinged on February 8 with 8 violations and again on March 20 with 3 more. They were not trivial violations and certainly not what you would expect.

This is actually a minor violation - prepping the sushi bare-handed.
The DOH violations issued to SK sushi joints were mostly a lot worse.

Now, about South Kingstown and sushi. I have been featuring the high-priced Kabuki in Wakefield in my last several reports. They flunked every inspection between March 2013 and January 2014, drawing 47 mostly nasty violations. Lucky for them, they were not inspected since January so I have nothing new on them.

But the South Kingstown alternative to Kabuki, the chi-chi Shogun in South County Commons seems to be following Kabuki’s lead, drawing 16 nasty violations during their March 25 inspection. And you can’t even count on sushi to go from the recently renovated Belmont Market. Their Sushi-Go concession was cited for 7 bad violations during their April 14 inspection. NOTE: Belmont itself was issued seven notices of violation when it was inspected on January 2.

I repeat my warning: if you want sushi in South Kingstown, make sure they cook it before they serve it.

All the March and April inspection reports noted above are cut-and-pasted below for your convenience. You can also check these or any other Rhode Island food establishment for yourself by using the Health Department inspection database.
