*POINTS KEY: Red violations are those most likely to cause food-borne illness and must be corrected at the time of inspection. Blue violations relate to the overall cleanliness and condition of operation and should be corrected by next inspection. Any establishment receiving more than 35 red or 60 total points is automatically reinspected within two weeks. If an establishment exceeds those limits twice in a calendar year, it is mandatorily closed for at least 24 hours.

Comments are taken directly from latest county inspection reports, which are available at each food establishment and at the Thurston County Environmental Health Office. If you have any questions concerning these reports, contact the health office at 360-786-5490.
