1 Arlington restaurant fails, 8 schools receive perfect scores in health inspections
One Arlington restaurant failed but no restaurants were closed during Oct. 15-28 health inspections, according to data from the city compiled by the Star-Telegram.
Peter’s Chicken and Seafood, located at 1823 E. Abram St., scored 70 on Oct. 26. It scored the lowest out of the 125 establishments inspected during that time period and requires a followup inspection.
According to a city of Arlington spokesperson, perishable foods were not stored at a safe temperature and some food was stored on the floor of the walk-in cooler. There was no certified food manager on site during the inspection and employees didn’t have certificates to show that they had completed their food sanitation training.
Arlington restaurants are scored on a 100-point system, with 100 being a perfect score. Restaurants that score 75 or less require a follow-up inspection, and 70 is considered extremely poor.
Umi Sushi and Grill at 915 E. Road to Six Flags passed inspection with a score of 78 but requires a follow-up inspection. The establishment’s bar and lounge portion received a perfect score of 100.
Bone Daddy’s at 415 E. Interstate 20 and Hilton Arlington at 2401 E. Lamar Blvd. both scored 76. Mis Tragos Bar and Grill at 1606 New York Ave. scored 77. Collins Burger Mart at 824 E.
