BLACK ANGUS - ROACHES & RATS!! SHUTDOWN TWICE!
SIR, WOULD YOU LIKE RAT TURDS OR ROACHES WITH YOUR STEAK?
I work hard for my money and when I go out to eat, I expect certain standards. Everybody's standards can vary so we authorize our government to set a general level that we all can agree on. This is the role of the Restaurant Health Inspector.
I want to be fair, but I also think customers deserve to know when there appears to be a REPEATED food-safety pattern.
According to Sacramento County health inspectors, Black Angus on Greenback Lane in Citrus Heights was RED-CARDED on March 2, and then again on June 23, 2026. The reported violations included rodent droppings in multiple areas, cockroach activity, improper food storage, and sanitation concerns. The restaurant was reinspected the next day and reopened with a green card.
My concern is not just one inspection. My concern is the repeated nature of the problem. If a restaurant is closed for rodents, roaches, and sanitation problems, then later has another closure or serious pest-related inspection issue, that raises a fair question: was the underlying problem truly corrected, or was it only cleaned up enough to pass the follow-up inspection and get a green card?
A green placard means the restaurant passed that inspection. It does not erase the history. Repeated pest and sanitation issues should matter to customers, especially when choosing where to spend their money and where to eat.
Here is the inspection information so people can review it for themselves:
