Here’s how Columbus restaurants and bars performed in March’s health inspections
Almost all of Muscogee County restaurants that underwent routine health inspections in March earned “A’s”, with 15 of them receiving perfect scores.
Of the 37 restaurants, lounges and bars inspected in March, according to the Georgia Department of Public Health’s online portal, 32 Columbus businesses offering food services received “A’s” in their routine inspections and five earned “B’s”.
No restaurant in Columbus failed their routine inspection between March 1 and March 31.
Restaurants receive one of four letter grades that are assigned based on how many points are deducted from 100:
“A” grades mean food safety is excellent is achieved by receiving 90-100 points
“B’s” are issued when there is “satisfactory compliance” with the business receiving 80-89 points
“C’s” mean there is marginal compliance and applied to scores between 70-79
“U’s” represent unsatisfactory compliance and are applied to scores of 69 or less.
Establishments that receive a “C” or “U” food safety grade will have at least one additional routine inspection added in a twelve month period, according to state law.
Here are the health inspection scores from March 2023.
