Four restaurants in Waterloo Region had to be closed after a Public Health and Emergency Services Health Protection and Investigation inspection this year.

They include:

– KFC/Taco Bell at 99 Dundas St. N, Cambridge

– El Rinconcito Mexicano at 49 Main St, Cambridge

– Pioneer Bar-B-Que at 25 Sportsworld Drive, Kitchener

– Mad Chili Hot Pot at 9-465 Phillip St. N., Waterloo

The two Cambridge establishments have since been re-inspected and reopened.

The other two remain closed and have not requested a re-inspection.
