Dhaba Toronto

Popular Indian restaurant shut down by Toronto health inspectors

A restaurant known for serving one of the best Indian buffets in Toronto seven days a week was shut down by health inspectors.

On August 29, Dhaba was booked by Public Health for eight infractions, including one crucial infraction that's a condition for closure: rodents. The other crucial infraction was for failure to protect food from contamination (yikes).

At the time of this writing, the restaurant had not been re-inspected or approved for re-opening by health inspectors.
