ALOHA, Ore. -- You've probably seen the smokers along TV highway. Reo's Ribs has been serving up barbecue for almost a decade.Snoop Dogg's uncle has been cooking food at Reo's Ribs in Aloha for years.He's been serving what he calls affordable Southern-style cooking.But inspectors wanted to hear new music in the kitchen after they gave Reo's 70 out of 100 during the last big inspection in May.
That's just one point from failing.Reo's got big points off for repeat problems that inspectors said they didn't fix: not putting dates on food so workers would know when they're spoiled and not having a hand sink at a place the Health Department said was crucial so workers could wash their hands before serving you food.The restaurant also lost points for not sanitizing dishes properly and not having sanitizer to wipe down counters to kill germs.Reo's had other problems with its mobile unit parked out back where workers get food ready to serve.Inspectors wrote that the inside of the mobile unit is heavily soiled.They found a build-up of food debris on the walls and floor, on the deep fryer and stove, on the inside and outside of microwaves and the freezer.Inspectors saw the walls had chipping paint and the floor was in disrepair with large areas of linoleum missing.Reo's didn't lose any points for problems with the mobile unit.But inspectors told the restaurant to fix the walls and floor and clean the mobile unit as soon as possible.FOX 12 stopped in at Reo's to see if the problems were fixed.One of the owners said she didn't want to be on camera, and she did not want to be on Dirty Dining.But she said the problems are fixed and the health department is satisfied.
