A burger restaurant in Abu Dhabi has been ordered to close its doors after receiving multiple warnings for health and safety violations. Hit Burger cafeteria, situated on Al Reem Island, was served an administrative closure notice by the Abu Dhabi Agriculture and Food Safety Authority (Adafsa). This action against the restaurant, identified by commercial license number CN-2810647, was taken due to numerous violations concerning food safety and posing a risk to public health.
According to a recent food inspection report, the closure was prompted by severe food safety violations and the facility's inability to implement effective corrective measures. The food outlet was found to be committing high-risk violations that could potentially harm consumers' health. The cafeteria had previously been issued three violations and a warning regarding its practices affecting food safety.
The authority confirmed that the administrative closure will remain in effect as long as the violations persist and until the facility addresses the identified issues and meets the necessary requirements to resume operations. All establishments in the capital, regardless of their nature and the food products they offer, are subject to periodic inspections by the authority to ensure compliance with safety regulations. This closure underscores Adafsa's dedication to maintaining the food safety system and ensuring regulatory compliance across all facilities.
Adafsa has urged the public to report any observed violations in food establishments or suspected issues with food contents by calling the toll-free number 800555. This enables the authorities to take the necessary actions to ensure safe and sound food for all community members in Abu Dhabi. Authorities in the emirate have shut down establishments that pose a risk to public health. Recently, two restaurants in Abu Dhabi were closed for violating food safety laws.
