A DeKalb County sushi restaurant failed its recent health inspection amid a number of concerns, including roaches and nymphs in the kitchen.

Sushi Yoshino, located at 2150 Johnson Ferry Road near Brookhaven, received a 65 on Monday, according to the report.

The inspector noted seeing live and dead nymphs and adult German roaches in the main kitchen above hand sink. A live adult German roach was seen in the sushi prep area.

The inspector reported seeing an employee touch a cleaning cloth and then touching food without washing their hands. Also, raw fish was stored in between raw chicken, the report said.

Dust and debris was found on top of ­coolers in the main kitchen and sushi prep area and elsewhere.

Attempts to reach management for comment have been unsuccessful this week.
