It's a MUST go to check Long John Silver's on W. 7th street, this place is so disgusting that I walked right back out! I even posted a review on their website but they ignored it. This place reminded me street vendors in India. It needs to literally be demolished and rebuilt

Not surprised by who got busted. I was in significant gastrotomical distress for a considerable amount of time after recently dining at one of the aforementioned "insect infested" establishments. I can't stop blowing chunks over the food poisoning or the thought of consuming rat poop and roaches. We need the guidance of Robert Kennedy and his sage wisdom to lead us through this perilous health and safety issues of our lives.

Long John Silver's on W. 7th street needs to be shut down, I literally walk right back out without ordering. This place is so dirty, it reminded me of street vendors in India.
I posted a review on their website but it was ignored. The shack needs to be demolished and rebuilt, this is how disgusting it is

Again, this is definitely a Government Service to help prevent the spread of diseases and make the public aware of how bad some of these Restaurants are.

Now that these Health issues are being addressed in more Public Forums - Especially the ones about the Joplin Schools - which they have played their Pests / Mouse-Feces issues - as Nothing - I hope the Public has voiced their concerns to the Local School Board and the Administration - that they will not stand for Children being served food from kitchens that are invested with Pests - Bugs / Mice - which is Intolerable.

Failing one inspection doesn't accurately reflect the overall day to day conditions of the place. Reporting which restaurants consistently, continually fail over a period of time - several months and/or years, would let the good citizens of Joplin know which eateries don't have cleanliness or food handling standards in place - and probably don't care to - and truly are a health threat.

Except, how often and regular are these inspections?
