El Paso Restaurants Score Low in Health Inspections

Health inspectors in El Paso hit restaurants hard from April 13th through 17th, and a couple

Chinese spots barely scraped by.

Grand China buffet on Baikal Boulevard pulled a 74 while Hongda on Restler Drive got 76.

Passing is 70 or higher, anything under 60 means shut down.

These checks cover El Paso, Anthony, Clint, Horizon City, Sakura, Vinton, and the county.

Low scorers get time to fix issues before a follow-up visit, so one bad day doesn't tell the full story.

Diners pay attention to these grades since they flag potential risks like dirty kitchens or bad food handling.

No places close this round, but those sea grades from 70 to 79, like Lee's Cafe at 72, raise eyebrows for folks grabbing.

Takeout.

Plenty of standouts, too, with perfect 100s at spots like Waterburger, a McDonald's on Alameda, and several schools.

Chains and bakeries dominated the A list from 90 to 99.
