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.
- Starry Bites at Mobile, was cited for issues during a county health inspection on August 20. The restaurant scored 87 out of 100. The inspector noted that staff handled ready-to-eat food with bare hands, which is unsafe; they were instructed to use utensils or gloves instead. Raw eggs and meats were stored improperly above ready-to-eat foods, risking contamination; these were rearranged to prevent cross-contamination. Lastly, the mobile unit lacked proper test strips to check sanitizer strength; the inspector provided strips and advised keeping them on hand to ensure cleaning solutions are effective. All issues were corrected or addressed immediately. (view report)

Note on today’s report: Some of the incidents listed are not recent. This can happen for a couple of reasons: Delays in agency reporting — sometimes officials don’t file reports right away, or agencies release batches of reports weeks later. Delays in public complaints — people may not notice or decide to contact police until some time after an incident. Please contact the responsible law-enforcement agency or your local elected officials if you have concerns about their delay in releasing information.
