Norovirus Outbreak
In late November 2006, its Syracuse location was affected by the Norovirus and was closed for about a week until cleared to reopen by county health inspectors. Hundreds of customers and employees were affected. It is unclear how the virus materialized. Onondaga County health inspectors have not found fault on the part of the restaurant. In fact, they have applauded the restaurant for its complicity and resolve.[5]
