Incorrect scores below 70 necessitate corrective action. Eateries are scheduled for another inspection if they fail to meet critical standards.

The scores provided in this report are initial and do not reflect the instant modifications that occasionally result in an increase. Below is the list of scores for the week ending March 5, 2024.
