"The safety of our patrons and employees is always our highest priority. An employee at Social Kitchen and Bar was diagnosed with Hepatitis A on August 6. Immediately upon learning of the diagnosis, we contacted the Health Department. Fortunately, no one else has reported any illness. On August 8, the Health Department inspected the restaurant and authorized us to remain open. The restaurant is 100 percent compliant with Health Department regulations and will continue to maintain the highest food safety standards."If you visited the establishment during the stated time period, you should look out for symptoms like abnormal abdominal discomfort, dark urine, fever, diarrhea, and yellow skin or eyes as all are signs you've contracted Hep A. If you think you may have contracted the disease, you're urged to stay home and contact your doctor immedietly.
