Case History

Inspection Timeline

CriticalContamination

The restaurant is leaving condiments (like ketchup, mustard, or hot sauce) in open containers that anyone can touch or contaminate, instead of using individual packets or squeeze bottles controlled by staff.

Code 06C

CriticalChemical

The rags used to wipe down tables and counters were left sitting out dirty between uses, instead of being kept clean or soaking in a disinfecting solution, which means they could be spreading germs around the restaurant.

Code 06F

MinorPest

The restaurant was using pest poison traps that weren't properly secured or labeled, and may have been applied by someone not certified to handle pesticides, which could put your food at risk of chemical contamination.

Code 08C

There was no reminder sign telling employees to wash their hands posted at the sink where they're supposed to wash up before handling your food.

Code 09E

MinorContamination

The restaurant has equipment or surfaces that are either made of materials that aren't safe for a food environment, are dirty, or are positioned in a way that makes them impossible to properly clean around, underneath, or on all sides.
