Feel like restaurant owners should be charged for repeat violations like this. They’re knowingly putting customer’s health at risk

Imagine being the inspector having to count every single rodent drop

If the first guy can't make it as a chef after this, he definitely has a future as a bouncer.

In case anyone was curious, according to Google, that Chinese Buffet restaurant is somehow still open and still getting complaints about cleanliness. Absolutely insane

These people are gross. They’re criminals. They could literally kill someone with their negligence.

Shut them dirty places down forever.

This is an example of why homemade food is always the best. My uncle is a baker in New York City. He always tells me that there are a lot of disgusting things that happens in the kitchen and customers don't know anything about it because they don't see it. He always brings his own food to eat for lunch instead of eating the food at his workplace because he sees all the disgusting things that happens in the kitchen.

That dude at the end was like “Sir, I’m just trying to do my job. I’m a wage worker who’s vastly underpaid, please move and let me earn my crumbs.”

3rd time???? Why ya’ll keep eating there?!

2:40 the guy is like “uhhhh ok what am I supposed to do about the food, I just clean the floors” lol

I worked at a fast food restaurant during my teens and the restaurant had strict cleaning policies. Cleanliness and food safety were always a priority. I know that there are some dirty places out there but I’m proud to say that the place I worked at was very clean.

It's f*cked up that they were allowed to remain open; but honestly when I clicked the first 2 minute video claiming they had over 100 violations I was NOT expecting to get invested in a whole dramatic saga between these news casters and this restaurant.. I feel like I'm watching an episode of Kitchen Nightmares or Bar Rescue ☠☠☠

I used to work at a small Italian restaurant about 25 years ago, the owners were very strict about cleanliness, safe food handling and cooking practices. I was very proud of that place and still eat there to this day. Now I’m a plumber that has visited many restaurant kitchens, but have yet to find one as good as the one I worked at.

I wasn't expecting this to be a 3 part series 😂

I’ve been a chef for 22 years. You all would be absolutely shocked by what goes on in “back of the house”. Servers will nibble off ur food. The “special” is usually something that should have been in the trash. If you order clams and mussels you’re freakin naive as u know what. The floors and countertops are disgusting. Cutting boards are not rotated enough so a cook may be seasoning raw chicken and turn around and portion a cooked steak on the same cutting board… cross contamination is rampant. Don’t ever order oysters in summertime cuz the waters where they are harvested are not cold enough to guard against bacteria also you think a $12 an hour shucker is gonna care if an oyster batch came in a week ago…. Or was that TWO weeks ago??? Even I know that health inspectors can be bought off and bribed. Seriously a whole documentary should be done about the food service industry so the public can be made more aware of what goes on not just at the Chinese buffet but almost every restaurant.

i love how everyone gets defensive and feels attacked when questioned about their horrible establishment. You shouldn’t open a restaurant with literally colonies of roaches living in the back room. Its deplorable. This is exactly why I dont eat out, no body cares about what happens when the food leaves the kitchen.

That was the most aggressive “sorry” door slammed shut lmao

That guy run like my grandson when he needs to poop!

what i'm confused is how there are still people eating there when this restaurant's been on the news three time at this point

Out of all the jobs in fast food Ive had, by far the best one in cleanliness was Chipotle. Some employees complain about having to do a bunch of dirty work but at the end of the day, you can walk out of that building, knowing for a fact that u were in a clean working and eating environment

As soon as he saw the reporter and camera crew he came running out shouting frantically: "HA! HA! OUTSIDE!" When an episode of "Dirty Dinning" starts off like that you know it's going to be something good. 😂

These owners lie more than car salesman.

I work at a fast food chain with a bunch of highschoolers, but surprisingly, they're not as careless as I'd expected. I guess having your parents eat the food you're making is a good way of enforcing cleanliness

Reporter : “ close to 450 rodents..” Her: “ oh no, no no no it was less than that” Thats like saying , I can’t believe you killed 30 people , and they respond with nah it was just 27. Like wtf this is unacceptable.

2:39 - leave the employee tf alone man, he’s clearly just trying to do his job. 🤦🏽‍♂️

Who tf do these news reporters think they are just walking into the back of kitchens like they own the place and then want to claim assault when they get kicked out

They should be charged extra for more inspection services so the authorities can inspect more consistently. It's heartbreaking for them to keep doing same evil stuff without any change

imagine being that stubborn that you refuse to clean up at the cost of other's health :/

"It's cause our doors are broken". That explains the mold in the ice maker.

I'm surprised the owners haven't tried to file a restraining order. It's probably because they are breaking the law with some of their violations. They can't file a restraining order cuz it will risk them getting arrested as well

0:24 The backdoor doesn’t even have a lock LMAO. That’s how they were able to walk right in

Looks like the Chinese are going to have a hard time from now on with their businesses in general.... moving forward.

If you get sick don’t ask why

"262 dry and 14 fresh rodent dropping" Does the inspector need to count each poop?

Close to 450 rodents and the defense is “oh no it’s less than that!”…. But that implicitly means more than 0 right

Here's some advice from a 35 year chef ,never ,I mean never ,eat at a buffet restaurant or anywhere off a buffet

0:15 Lmao I like this China guy. Not much English but sure knows how to kick a reporter out!

As a delivery person I came across many places that I wouldn't use the bathroom let alone to eat at.

If you think this is bad wait until you find that their using gutter or sewer oil. 🤢🤮

This is why I cook my own home food

The dislikes are from China Buffet

whats annoying is the fact these people are so entitled and need to get into the restaurant after being told no and then act offended and these restaurants need to be shut down thats j gross

Smh.....The investigation team caught the worker named, Hop Sings cutting up kidnapped local pets to add to their menu and daily specials!! 🐀 🐈 🐕

The fact that the report had such a specific number of roach/rodent droppings….tells me that inspectors probably have a tally-counter, which tells me that stuff like this is probably more common than we think.

Cleanliness is a part of the business. These kinds of places don’t want to do something, if it doesn’t equate to making money. A clean restaurant is a cost of doing business. It’s impressive how many places fail to understand that. Draft beer kind of scares me in a lot of places. Soda guns too. They are so easy to neglect until the day a long string of biological sludge comes out of them. Liquor and bottled only.

The news crew should be charged with harassment.

This is the type of journalism that is missing in today's news! More of this type of investigative journalism please

0:19 seconds in you can see they trespassed on private property. Open door has a sign posted. You can not just walk in someone’s back door when you’re not invited, and there is a sign post no trespassing. I’m glad they got handled out like that, and I hope this restaurant gets cleaned up or shut down. No bias here: Reporters need to adhere to the law as well. Restaurant: Close it down or clean it up.

They never seem to know English until it’s time to tell you the total 🤷🏾‍♂️

Rule of thumb, never eat sushi at a restaurant unless it's Japanese owned.

I hope you all keep this same energy with local white owned restaurants…

I like how the China Buffet put more effort in hiding their mess rather than actually fixing it.

Trust me, I know how they are and they really don't give a crap.

I am kinda confused here, of course this place is disgusting, but it is blatantly obvious this camera crew broke many laws by entering through the back door of the facility. I cant believe the guy didnt call the cops and have them arrested and have them permanently trespassed from the property.

Yeah they’re dirty but it literally says no trespassing you can’t just walk into places back door.

shut them down. this is disgusting. this is why I cook and eat my meals at home. I haven't eaten takeout in a year

I'm going to be honest I don't want to eat in Chinese restaurants anymore

Can we appreciate the fact some dude actually counted the amount of mouse droppings be found

I'll never eat at a Chinese buffet.

All food establishments should undertake a hygiene standards every 8-10 weeks. 3 stripes bad enough to warrant closure should be made permanent by law.

Why do these people not look at it like, "Hey, this is my LIVELIHOOD, I should work to make sure that everything is perfect!" Instead, they act like they just don't care if a customer dies of food poisoning.

The way that Asian dude came up to them at the beginning 😭💀😭💀

I mean cmon people. They had no business being in there. It was clearly the back door to the kitchen and there was an obvious sign on the door that said authorized personnel only.

I work for a company that has their own “deep clean department,” and let me tell you, we make sure to live by the standard the company enforces. I’m proud to work for that company; knowing that our customers deserve the best. :D

My family use to eat at that buffet back then, but one day my dad picked me and my sister up from school and we decided to go there. Right when got our food and sat down, there was a 2 roaches next to my sister. My dad was furious and started to complain the staff, right when we were leaving they had the audacity to tell us we had to pay for our food.

I mean just walking through the back door of the kitchen what did you expect lmao

-10,000 social credit, Bing Chilling!

kick out these unsanitary people. forever

If these people is unsanitary in their country, they will differently be unsanitary in yours

Let’s face it AMERICA 🇺🇸 does NOT care

Anyone else binge watching these while eating? Lol I love these reports. Fantastic stuff!

The last time i was in a Chinese restaurant was 15 years ago after I was told not to go back ever. The reason: very bad service, the food was very salty and so I only tip $2, the lady gave the attitude that she wanted more she handed me back the $2. I said fine. Grab my $2 back and started walking out. They she yield at us saying to not to go back ever...I said okay I’ll just take my money somewhere else. After this report I have another reason not to go to a Chinese restaurant. God Bless America!

let's be real, this is normal back in China where temperature abuse, cross contamination and dirty kitchen is not an issue... all they want is money and that's it

Gosh I wish someone like this would go look at Ichiban in Mooresville next to the holiday inn :(

HOW SICK AN OWNER WOULD TRY TO HIDE ISSUES THREATENING PEOPLE'S HEALTH. FOR GOD'S SAKE CLOSE PLACES LIKE THESE!!!

I worked for a restaurant. Nothing is ever clean or up to "standards". And almost all places will deep clean the night before to pass inspection. You will always be better off cooking at home

Uh yes, I'll have the Coronavirus Crab Roll and a diet Coke.

There is no way this is allowed in China

Thank you for exposing these dirty crooks

This is totally unacceptable for the owner to be putting his hands on any news reporters and this place has like 528 violations but the owner should’ve at least talked about it

The lesson here is to never eat out, especially Chinese food. Yea right lol that's never gonna happen. I never got sick from any restaurant or Chinese buffet so I'll be alright.

I'm surprised they're not only still in business, but that the owners are not in jail

Florida advice: never, ever eat at restaurants like this. If it’s got a generic name (most of the time, a country or food followed by “buffet” or “restaurant”), is part of a mini strip mall with Spanish tiling, has few customers (only applies to sit-in restaurants) and has too much decor in the front windows. We have some great local food but you’ll want to find something in a more sleek part of town, usually near clothing stores or big-name restaurants.

Unfortunately so many of these restaurants are not clean I enjoy Chinese food but I never order from the restaurants due to this reason. Also a lot of the Chinese restaurant workers don’t wear gloves while handling the food or hair nets. I buy frozen Asian food and I prepare it at home, I think that’s the best thing to do.

and that's how we get the coronavirus

If the buffet was free, the Chinese would still gobble it up.

There is absolutely nothing like the taste of Beef Chow Mein with dead roaches and rat droppings.

Dude ran a 4.2 40. Dolphins should sign him this instance!!

I'm glad you guys have this on the news.

Bro why did this need to be a trilogy (Im not commenting on the news station, im commenting on how mind boggling it is how this restaurant got to stay OPEN that long)

how about some action? what's the point of these violations if nothing is done as penalization?!?

When you come from a country that has no regulations don't expect the same people from that country to be any different if they open a restaurant in a country that does have regulations.

Pov: you fell down the rabbit hole in this story on this restaurant after KZfaq recommended it to you.

Close them down permanently. The health department is not doing their jobs. The restaurant needs to be closed permanently and the owners arrested......

My last cooking job every night we dragged a hose into the kitchen and sprayed and scrubbed every surface at closing. Floors were disinfected, every single surface disinfected, walk-in was immaculate; the kitchen was like new before we went home. If any vegetable showed any signs of being dated, it would not be served. The same was expected every single day. That’s how every kitchen should be. I’ve worked in at least a dozen, and I’d say about half are dirty. It takes work and you have to have an owner that cares.

No Asian buffets for me ever again.

I literally live like 10 minutes away from this place I used to eat there when I was younger but haven’t been there ever since

I mean, regardless of whether it's clean or not, you still don't enter an employee area and then be surprised that you're kicked out...

As a Chinese I do not claim him.

Seems like it's better just to stay at home and make your own meals.. every restaurant is dirty no matter how fancy it looks on the outside
