Abu Dhabi shuts Amina Restaurant over food safety violations

Abu Dhabi: The Abu Dhabi Agriculture and Food Safety Authority (ADAFSA) has ordered the administrative closure of Amina Restaurant, located on Zayed the First Street, after inspectors found violations of the emirate’s food safety regulations that posed a risk to public health.

The authority said the closure was issued in accordance with Law No. (2) of 2008 on food safety and its implementing regulations after repeated violations were recorded and the establishment failed to take effective corrective action. 

ADAFSA said the decision was necessary to protect consumer health and ensure compliance with food safety standards.

It added that the closure will remain in place until the restaurant rectifies the violations and meets all required food safety conditions. 

The authority reiterated its commitment to conducting regular inspections of food establishments across the emirate to ensure compliance with public health requirements.
