These Charlotte restaurants logged worst health inspection scores in April

CHARLOTTE — The Charlotte Business Journal is continuing its monthly review of health code inspections for food establishments in Mecklenburg County.

Establishments listed in this review received grades of either a “B” or “C”, or below a 90, when inspected during the month of April, according to data pulled May 3 from the N.C. Public Health Inspections’ online database. Restaurants, food stands, mobile-food operators and push carts are included in this review.

A total of 760 such establishments, 13 of which scored below a 90, were inspected in Mecklenburg County last month. For those with a “B” or “C” grade in April that have since been reinspected, the updated score is noted in the summary.

Among those to score below a 90 on their initial health inspection in April were a Korean fried chicken chain on East Woodlawn Road, a Mexican restaurant in the University area and a seafood spot in southwest Charlotte.
