According to Yelp and staffers at the local bagel chain’s other locations, the eatery at 8217 NW 88th Ave. in Tamarac Town Square is no longer serving customers.

Inspectors said they also found dirty walls in the eatery, a moldy can opener, water draining on a part of the floor, an improperly stored toxic substance, and food stored at unsafe temperatures, records show.

Rob’s Bageland of Tamarac was ordered closed on July 11 and reopened on July 12, according to the state.

All of the violations were corrected, records show, and the restaurant is still legally permitted to operate.
