Official score: 30 · Understand this area’s scale

5 recorded violations

minorCode 3400Cleaning and sanitizing

Official wording

Wiping cloths properly used, stored; sanitizer concentration

In plain English

Dishes, equipment, or surfaces that touch food were not properly washed, rinsed, and sanitized, or sanitizer was not at the right strength. Clean surfaces help stop germs from spreading to food.

minorCode 3200Pests

Official wording

Insects, rodents, animals not present; entrance controlled

In plain English

The inspector found mice, rats, cockroaches, flies, or evidence of them (like droppings) inside the business, or conditions that could attract them. Pests can spread bacteria to food and surfaces, so this is treated as one of the more serious findings.

criticalCode 1000Contamination

Official wording

Food in good condition, safe and unadulterated; approved additives

In plain English

Food was stored or handled in a way that could let germs or other material get into it, such as raw meat stored above ready-to-eat food or uncovered food. Cross-contamination is a common cause of foodborne illness.

criticalCode 1200Food source and labeling

Official wording

Proper shellstock ID; wild mushroom ID; parasite destruction procedures for fish

In plain English

Food came from an unapproved source, was missing required date marks or labels, or was past its use-by date. Knowing where food came from and how old it is helps prevent illness.

More about food source, dating, or labeling problems
criticalCode 0100Facility maintenance

Official wording

PIC present, demonstrates knowledge and performs duties to maintain AMC; certified manager on staff unless exempt

In plain English

Floors, walls, ceilings, lighting, ventilation, or garbage areas needed repair or cleaning. These are usually less urgent than food-handling problems but still need to be fixed.

2 recorded violations

minorCode 4300Cleaning and sanitizing

Official wording

Nonfood-contact surfaces maintained and clean

In plain English

Dishes, equipment, or surfaces that touch food were not properly washed, rinsed, and sanitized, or sanitizer was not at the right strength. Clean surfaces help stop germs from spreading to food.

criticalCode 1710Food temperature

Official wording

Proper hot holding temperatures; less than 130 degrees Fahrenheit (F) (54 degrees Celsius (C))

In plain English

Food was not kept cold enough, hot enough, cooled fast enough, or cooked or reheated to the right temperature. Bacteria grow quickly in the "danger zone" between 41°F and 135°F, which makes this one of the most important food-safety checks.
