Many dining spots in Metro Vancouver have been ordered to close due to what public health inspectors call "pest infestation."

Some of these food spots re-opened only a couple of days after closing and are operating again — while others are still pending or are permanently closed.

All of the information on what spots have closed is from Vancouver Coastal Health's food establishment closure list, which was updated on March 1.

Here is a breakdown of the venues, addresses, closure dates and reopening dates for places that have been shut down by pesky pests.
