The Chattanooga-Hamilton County Health Department inspects restaurants twice a year and grades the businesses on a 100-point scale. Scores below 70 require corrective action. Restaurants are reinspected if they fail to meet critical standards. To file a health-related complaint, call the Department of Environmental Health at 209-8110. The scores are original and do not reflect on-the-spot changes, which sometimes lead to upward adjustments.
No failures reported for the week ending May 6, 2018.
This week, the inspectors discussed with restaurants the E coli scare with romaine lettuce, making sure that until the safety of the lettuce is secure, they do not purchase romaine.
