A downtown Salt Lake City deli with a dirty kitchen and a refrigerator that couldn’t keep foods cold, was shut down Wednesday by the Salt Lake County Health Department.

Gandolfo’s New York Deli, 158 S. Main, was closed, according to a notice on the department website, because the restaurant “lacks the capacity to hold potentially hazardous food at 41 [degrees] Fahrenheit or below due to damaged and nonfunctional cold-holding equipment.”

The damaged equipment was one of 58 violations discovered at the restaurant. Of those, 22 are considered critical to human health.

The restaurant will remain closed until the owner can fix problems, and health inspectors say it is safe for the public.

Among the most serious problems found:

• Employee personal foods are stored with useable food product.

• A food handler touched ready-to-eat food with bare hands.

• Cream cheese, feta, cut vegetables, raw eggs and cooked deli meat are being held at too high a temperature, potentially causing bacteria growth.

• Shelves throughout the kitchen are unclean to sight and touch.

• The floor is dirty in various areas; egg shells and debris were found behind and under grill area; walls are dirty in various areas.
