MILFORD – The town’s restaurants continue to earn high marks from the local health department.
Of the 314 health inspections carried out by the city’s health inspectors, none was below 80 points, the minimum pass mark on a scale of 100 points.
Health inspectors visit restaurants quarterly and rate them on a numerical scale, with 100 points being a perfect score. Inspectors deduct between one and four points for one of the 62 possible infractions. Any score below 80 is considered a failure, as is a single uncorrected violation of a 4-point risk factor.
Inspectors issue 4 point deductions for infractions such as improper food storage temperatures, damaged cans and inadequate hand washing facilities. Minor infractions can include leaving spoons in the ice maker, missing or inaccurate food thermometers, and uncovered trash cans.
Restaurants that receive 4 point violations may be required to correct them on the spot. For the most serious offenses, the restaurant may have its license revoked and be closed.
A total of 18 sites obtained 100 perfect points during their sanitary inspections.
According to health inspection reports, four restaurants received a score of 80: Crab Du Jour, East Shore Pizza LLC, Fufi Chinese and Japanese Restaurant, and Milford Sports Pub and Grill. None of the four locations received a critical four-point violation that would have resulted in a fail rating.
A total of 59 establishments scored between 81 and 89 points, and the majority of restaurants in the city scored between 90 and 99 points.
