D.C. temporarily closed Megabytes due to health code violations.
“Health inspection is a routine matter,” Tom Gera, owner of Megabytes, said in an email. “There were some minor infractions which were fixed in matter of an hour.”
The D.C. health inspector did not return until the following day, according to Gera.
“We would have opened in few hours,” Gera said in an email, instead of being closed a full day. “We pride ourselves in providing the best customer service on campus on a daily basis to AU Students, Faculty and Staff.”
