SouthPark, Dilworth spots among restaurants that didn’t make the grade in February

CHARLOTTE — The Charlotte Business Journal is continuing its monthly review of health-code inspections for food establishments in Mecklenburg County.

Establishments listed below received grades of either a “B” or “C” when inspected during the month of February, according to data pulled March 7 from the N.C. Public Health Inspections’ online database. Restaurants, food stands, mobile-food operators and push carts are included in this review.

A total of 835 such establishments, nine of which scored below a 90, were inspected in Mecklenburg County last month. For those with a “B” or “C” grade in February that have since been reinspected, the updated score will be noted in the summary.

Food establishments that score below a 70 immediately have their permits revoked, according to state law.

Restaurants scoring below 90 last month range from a Dilworth bakery and an upscale SouthPark restaurant to a pizza chain and a gas station. Check out the list here.
