What these findings mean
Health authorities word their violations differently, so we group them by what they mean for food safety. Higher-risk findings are the ones inspectors treat as critical, because they can directly make someone sick.
Cleaning and sanitizingHigher risk
Anything that touches food, such as cutting boards, dishes and utensils, must be washed, rinsed and sanitized. Inspectors check dishwasher temperatures, sanitizer strength and how wiping cloths are stored. Poor sanitizing lets bacteria survive from one use to the next.
Recorded 2 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on May 30, 2025. For example:
3 Are food contact surfaces, utensils and equipment washed and sanitized in a manner that removes/prevents contamination?
Protecting food from contaminationHigher risk
This covers how food is stored, prepared and displayed: raw meat kept away from ready-to-eat food, food covered and stored off the floor, and nothing dripping or splashing into it. Cross-contamination from raw to cooked food is a direct route for salmonella and E. coli.
Recorded once on June 15, 2021. For example:
5 Are the premises and equipment properly maintained and operated in a sanitary manner (i.e. ongoing maintenance)?
Permits, records and postingLower risk
Operating permits, required signage, written procedures and logs. These findings are administrative: the documentation was missing or out of date at the time of inspection.
Recorded 3 times across 3 separate inspections, most recently on May 30, 2025. For example:
1 Does the operator have a valid operating permit or approval to operate?

- Observation(s): In the back room, the ice machine was not being maintained in a sanitary manner. Allowing dirt and grime build up can lead to an increased risk of contamination of the ice. Operator stated the ice machine was not in use and was to be removed from the premises at an unknown date. Operator was informed that this unit needed to be unplugged so the ice can melt, preventing any potential use of the food. Microwave was observed in an unsanitary state as there was grime along the inside walls and ceiling. Allowing grime build up inside the microwave can increase risk of contamination of food products that use the microwave. This observation was relayed to the operator over the phone, who stated it would be cleaned by staff. The pop syrup rack in the back was observed to be in an unsanitary condition, as well as syrup residue on the wall behind the shelf. The food residue and dirt buildup can attract pests and increase the risk of contamination of the food product. Operator stated this would be cleaned as part of cleaning schedule.
