Darien Eatery Health Inspections: 3 'Good,' 1 'Fair'
Health inspection reports for these establishments were recently released by the Darien Health Department: Burgers, Shakes and Fries; St. Luke's Church; Behind the Net; and Robeks.
In the most recently released health code inspection reports by the Darien Health Department, three eating establishments in town scored "Good," and one was deemed "Fair."
The following list shows what scores local food-serving establishments received under the state scoring system ("state rating," in which 1-4 points are deducted for each violation, with 100 being a perfect score) from Darien Health Department inspectors.
The Health Department also gives a rating under the Darien system ("Darien rating," in which a "Good," "Fair," or "Poor" is given to restaurants that pass inspections). Also shown below are the inspection date and comments by the inspectors as noted in inspection reports. The comments, which each refer to a numbered list of state inspection elements (here omitted), are separated by semicolons (";"). Occasionally an inspector will make general comments at the end of the report (see the Aug. 9 report from Woodway Country Club as an example).
