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 can be accessed here.
- La Reina Del Sazon at 4360 Main St., was cited for issues during a county health inspection on Oct. 21. The restaurant received a score of 69 out of 100 due to several issues. The mobile unit was washing dishes at home instead of on-site, but this was corrected during inspection. Employees were unable to wash hands properly because the handwashing sink was blocked and the water pump was off; this was addressed with education and materials. Unapproved eggs with visible contamination were found mixed with public food and must be sourced properly. Raw meats were improperly stored but corrected during inspection. The unit lacked a sanitizer test kit and had plumbing problems causing no water availability; both require immediate repair and proper equipment. (view report)
- Quack Taco, The at 120 S 35th St., Springfield, Or, Usa, was cited for issues during a county health inspection on Oct. 21. The restaurant scored 84 out of 100. Initially, there were no paper towels or hand dryers at the sinks, raw meats were stored above ready-to-eat foods risking contamination, and some cooked foods were kept at unsafe temperatures (50-56°F). Additionally, a container of toxic chemicals was unlabeled. During the reinspection, paper towels were provided, raw animal foods and employee foods were properly reorganized in refrigerators and freezers, the faulty refrigerator was fixed to keep foods at 41°F or below, and all toxic chemical containers were clearly labeled. All issues were corrected promptly. (view report)
