Case History

Inspection Timeline

CriticalPest

The person in charge of the kitchen doesn't have the required food safety certification that proves they've been trained to handle food safely.

Code 04A

CriticalPest

There are mice or signs of mice (like droppings or gnaw marks) somewhere in this restaurant, which means rodents may have come into contact with your food or the surfaces it's prepared on.

Code 04L

CriticalHygiene

There's nowhere for employees to properly wash their hands near the bathroom or kitchen, and even where sinks exist, they're either blocked, being misused, or missing hot water, adequate pressure, or soap and paper towels.

Code 05D

MinorPest

The restaurant was using unlabeled pesticides applied by someone without proper certification, and left open, accessible poison bait traps in the facility rather than the secured, tamper-proof kind required by law.

Code 08C

MinorPest

The restaurant has areas where rodents, insects, or other pests can hide, nest, or easily get in.

Code 08A

MinorContamination

The restaurant's drinking straws are stored loose and uncovered, meaning they could be touched by hands, exposed to sneezes, or otherwise contaminated before ending up in your drink.

Code 10H
