Roaches caught crawling across popular steakhouse's kitchen floor in viral employee video

A LongHorn Steakhouse is receiving new scrutiny after videos appearing to show roaches and food waste inside the restaurant's kitchen have been spreading across social media.

The videos were allegedly recorded at the Camp Creek Parkway location in East Point, Georgia, where an employee said he documented conditions after repeatedly raising concerns with managers and the company's corporate offices, FOX 5 Atlanta reported.

Sean Headley, who began working at the restaurant in April, told the outlet he decided to record the videos because he believed the kitchen had become unsafe.

"Really, it was the work environment and the conditions that we were working in," Headley told FOX 5 Atlanta. "There were a lot of inhumane conditions."

The videos he took appear to show cockroaches crawling across the kitchen floor and food waste scattered throughout the workspace, according to FOX 5 Atlanta.

Headley eventually shared his videos on social media after feeling his concerns had gone unanswered, he told the outlet.

LongHorn Steakhouse responded to the videos in a statement provided to FOX 5 Atlanta.

"The conditions shown are unacceptable and have been addressed," the company said.

Headley told the outlet he hopes the incident leads to broader changes beyond a single restaurant. He said he would like to see more frequent health inspections at restaurants owned by Darden Restaurants, as well as improvements in workplace conditions, including repairs to broken air conditioning systems.

Fulton County health officials are planning to revisit the restaurant following the viral videos, WSB-TV in Atlanta reported.

The worker would like to see more frequent health inspections at restaurants. 

The Georgia Department of Public Health last inspected the East Point restaurant on Aug. 25, issuing it a score of 90, or an "A." Inspection records from the past two years showed scores ranging from 88 to 91, the outlet reported.
