Dirty meat slicer, bare hands and old sauces among violations at 16 Reno-Sparks restaurants

No Reno-Sparks eateries failed and 16 received a conditional pass in their inspections in the last half of January.

Northern Nevada Public Health, formerly known as Washoe County Health Department, issues four types of inspection ratings:

Pass: Fewer than three critical violations during inspection.

Conditional pass: Three to five critical violations that can be corrected immediately. The facility may remain open and a reinspection will occur to “verify that all violations have stayed corrected,” according to NNPH’S explanation of the process.

Fail: A restaurant has more than six critical violations that are able to be corrected during the inspection. The facility may remain open before a reinspection to ensure all violations have stayed corrected.

Close: Restaurant has critical violations that can’t be remedied during the inspection.

MORE: 3 restaurants failed early January inspections

Below is a sampling of critical and non-critical violations found in the second half of January.
