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 3 times across 3 separate inspections, most recently on February 25, 2026. For example:
Are there adequate and properly operating dish washing facilities to effectively clean and sanitize equipment and utensils (unless noted elsewhere)(Critical)?
Food safety training and certificationLower risk
Most jurisdictions require a certified food handler or manager on site, and some require allergen or food-worker training. These findings mean the paperwork or the trained person was missing at the time. They do not by themselves mean food was handled unsafely.
Recorded 2 times across 2 separate inspections, most recently on September 6, 2024. For example:
Do food handlers ensure that food is protected from contamination (unless noted elsewhere)(Critical)?

- 1. The high temp dishwasher was being monitored regularly and the sanitizing temp documented. However the documented temperatures did not meet the required temp listed on the document. The required temperature was listed in deg C while the monitored temperatures were in deg F. For ease of use and to ensure employees know if the equipment has reached the required temp, the required temp should be in the same unit as that being measured.Also a mechanism to correct an insufficient temp result should be instituted. The incorrect temp had been being recorded for weeks, with no corrective action.
