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.
- Gridiron Grill & Taphouse at 2816 Main St., was cited for issues during a county health inspection on March 23. The restaurant scored 76 out of 100. Inspectors found employees drinking from unapproved cups in food prep areas, handwashing sinks blocked by items, and raw meats stored improperly above ready-to-eat foods, risking contamination. Some foods were uncovered, and kitchen utensils were not properly sanitized. Toxic materials were unlabeled, and some food containers lacked labels. There was a gap under an exterior door allowing pests, and scoops without handles were used. Equipment had gaps or damage making cleaning difficult. Dirty mop water was improperly disposed outside, and the facility lacked a proper mop sink. Repairs and cleaning improvements were needed for walls, floors, and ceilings. All issues were addressed or discussed during inspection. (view report)
- Mohawk Inn Tavern at 1501 Mohawk Blvd., was cited for issues during a county health inspection on March 23. The restaurant received a score of 97 out of 100. The inspector found that the handwashing sink in the men’s restroom was not providing hot water at the required temperature of at least 85°F, only reaching 60°F after running for several minutes. The restaurant was required to fix this immediately. During a follow-up inspection, the issue was corrected, and the sink now provides hot water at the proper temperature. (view report)
