Three Tarrant County food establishments had problems with rodents and roaches in the latest round of county health inspections, according to the inspection report.
The report compiled by the Star-Telegram contains data from Sept. 28 through Oct. 11 and 483 inspections.
Tarrant County’s inspections function on a demerit system: Every establishment starts with a score of 100 and demerits are subtracted. A score of 70 is considered extremely poor. Tarrant County Public Health inspects and scores all restaurants in the county except those in Fort Worth, Arlington, Euless and North Richland Hills.
Two restaurants scored below 70 in this round of inspections:
- Riz Gift Shop, 5136 Jacksboro Highway in Sansom Park, had a score of 62.
- Blue Bayou Lounge, 12670 Morris Dido Newark Road in Fort Worth, had a score of 68.
Two establishments had problems with rodents or rodent droppings:
- Bedford Beer & Wine – Taco Place, 800 Brown Trail in Bedford, had a score of 73. Inspectors observed rat droppings on the floor in the corners of a storage area.
- Mexican Inn Cafe, 6709 Lake Worth Blvd. in Lake Worth, had a score of 83. Inspectors observed “what appeared to be” rodent droppings by the tortilla maker.
Wo Barnes Stadium, 4801 Blackstone Drive in Fort Worth, had a score of 92. Inspectors observed several dead cockroaches on the floor.
