Roaches, dropping shut down Orlando Chinese restaurant — again

  • May 6, 2026

ORLANDO, Fla. – Last week, four more eateries across Central Florida were forced to close after a visit from a health inspector, according to state records.

These records show that the reported eateries experienced violations like rodent droppings, roaches, sewage backup, and storage issues.

But one restaurant in particular — China Lee along South Kirkman Road in Orlando — had notable health violations not even two months after it was previously shut down.

Back in March, a health inspector noted that China Lee had over 100 live roaches and roughly 400 rodent droppings on its premises.

While the issues this time around were far fewer in number, the restaurant still took around three days to meet inspection standards, finally being allowed to reopen on Friday.

In fact, all of the Central Florida eateries that were forced to close down last week were eventually able to reopen after meeting health standards.

The full list of Central Florida eateries required to close last week is as follows:

DELAND

Checkers — 133 S. Woodland Blvd.

ORLANDO

China Lee — 2338 S. Kirkman Road

TAMPA

La Ceibena (Food Truck) — 8806 W. Flora Street

Rocky’s Tacos (Food Truck) — 1201 W. Hillsborough Ave.
