Restaurant inspections
County officials regularly inspect food facilities to ensure compliance with state laws. Here, Lookout Eugene-Springfield reports both those who have passed the inspections and those where the county observed issues to correct. The county’s full ongoing reports are available here.
- Great Wall Restaurant at 862 Main St., was cited for issues during a county health inspection on Sept. 3. The restaurant scored 94 out of 100. The inspector found the dishwasher’s wash water temperature was too low at 108°F; it must be at least 120°F for proper sanitation. The restaurant serviced the machine, raising the temperature to 119.7°F, resolving the issue. Additionally, the restaurant lacked test strips to measure sanitizer strength but has since stopped using that sanitizer, so the issue has been corrected. (view report)
