A popular Chinese restaurant has been ordered to close after inspectors found evidence of a mouse infestation and noted owners failed to take measures to prevent the spread of rodents, according to the province's latest list of health code violations.

Geoffrey Young, owner of the Kum Koon Garden restaurant on King Street, would only tell CBC he is taking steps to clean up the restaurant and he plans to reopen Feb. 15.

The province said restaurants need to be inspected prior to being allowed to reopen.

Kum Koon Garden came under criticism in August after an Indigenous customer complained she and her friends had to pay prior to receiving their food. Young apologized at the time and offered the woman a complimentary meal.
