31 Observed that the handwash sink on the line was missing paper towels inside of the paper towel holder and the hand soap was missing (later found to be fallen on a kitchen shelf). Observed that the men’s bathroom handwash sinks did NOT produce hot water that reaches a MINIMUM temperature of 100 F. Ensure that all kitchen and bathroom handwash sinks are stocked with hand soap and disposable paper towels during all hours of operation. The hand soap CANNOT be a bar of soap, liquid dish soap, or hand sanitizer. It MUST be liquid or foam hand soap. Even though the bathrooms have hand dryers, the Food Handlers should still have paper towels to use as a barrier when turning off the cold and hot water handles. Please install an automatic or manual paper towel dispenser in each bathroom. Ensure that all kitchen and bathroom handwash sinks have cold and hot running water. The hot water for the handwash sink MUST always reach a MINIMUM of 100 degrees Fahrenheit (F) during all hours of operation. The hot water should NOT fluctuate or fall below 100 F. Please repair the handwash sink on the wall nearest the dining room door since it took a while for the hot water to arrive to it, and the hot water would go away when the cold-water valve was turned on. Ensure the following:5-202.12(A) Hand washing facility provide water at a temperature of at least 38 degrees Celsius (100 degrees Fahrenheit) through a mixing valve or combination faucet. 6-301.12 Hand drying provision.6-301.11 Hand washing cleanser, availability.
28 Observed a metal pan of Pico de Gallo that had a preparation date of 02/01/2025 but it was missing a Use By date of 02/07/2025. Observed a metal container of sliced Pepper Jack cheese with a prep date of 02/02/25 but the Use By date posted was 02/09/25. The inspector told the staff that they went over the Use By date by one day and that it should be 02/08/25. Ensure that any Time/ Temperature Control for Safety (TCS) food or beverages, such as opened packages of dairy, cooled TCS food, and opened packages of TCS food that must be kept refrigerated, stored within the establishment are given a preparation date and a Use-By date. The Use-By date has up to twenty-four (24) hours to be labeled on the container from the time it is placed inside a cold hold unit. The TCS food item or beverage MUST be discarded after seven days at the end of the shift (7 days: day of preparation and six days after that). Ensure that the dates are correct. Ensure the following: 3-501.17(A) Date marking prepare on site RTE/ TCS food.
2 Observed cooked rice temping at 47 to 48 degrees Fahrenheit (F) inside a cold hold unit on the line. The rice had been out of temperature within the cold hold since 10:45 AM according to the Certified Food Manager (CFM). The CFM quickly moved the container of cooked rice back into the Walk-in cooler so that it could cool back down to 41 F or lower. Ensure that all Time/ Temperature Control for Safety (TCS) food and beverages are kept at a temperature of 41 degrees Fahrenheit (F) or lower inside cold holds, coolers, reach-in coolers, refrigerators, cold tables, and walk-in coolers. If a TCS food item is kept at temperatures above 41 F for more than four (4) hours, then they MUST be immediately discarded. The establishment Food Handlers should lower the internal ambient temperature of the cold hold unit by eighteen degrees or reduce the number of times they open and close it. If temperatures still persist above 41 F, then they should contact a maintenance technician so that they can diagnose why the internal temperatures are still above 41 F (could be it requires more Freon/ refrigerant, the compressor may be faulty, the filters may need to be cleaned/ changed, the coils may need to be replaced, etc.). The CFM did state that the cold hold was faulty and that they shall place a maintenance order to have the internal temperatures below 41 F. Ensure the following: 3-501.16(A)(2) Cold Hold (41°F/45°F or below).
3 Observed Mashed Potatoes temping between 102 and 103 F inside of the warming rack/ hot hold. The staff stated that the warming rack has been on since 10:50 AM. The inspector has instructed the staff to move the cooked/ reheated TCS food to another hot hold unit/ warming rack that does keep the internal temperature of food at or above 135 F. Ensure that hot Time/ Temperature Control for Safety (TCS) foods have an internal temperature of 135 degrees Fahrenheit (F) or higher when they are within hot holds, warming racks, steam tables, ovens, and steamers. If the hot TCS food item is out of temperature for more than four (4) hours, then it MUST be discarded immediately. The CFM had another CFM reheat the mashed potatoes and another container of TCS food to 165 F for at LEAST 15 seconds and then stored them back in the warming rack. They began keeping track of four hours for the hot TCS food in this unit. Ensure the following: 3-501.16(A)(1) Hot Hold (135°F or higher).
9 Observed a container of raw shelled eggs stored above a container of chopped lettuce that was NOT covered. Observed raw ground beef patties stored above a tray of raw Ribeye steak. The inspector educated the CFM that raw eggs MUST be stored below all produce, fruit, and dairy. Any raw beef MUST be stored above all raw ground beef. Ensure that raw eggs, raw meats, and raw poultry are stored below Ready to Eat (RTE) foods such as chopped vegetables, prepackaged dairy products, and whole produce. Ensure the correct order for raw meats to reduce the risk of cross-contamination. If space is limited within the cold hold unit, then the raw meat may be stored alongside another raw meat if both are separated in their own pans/ containers, and each have a form of cover, lid, or plastic wrapping. There should be adequate space between the two pans/ containers. The CFM moved the raw ground beef onto another rack, and the eggs were moved below the lettuce. Ensure the following: 3-302.11(A)(1) Food protected from cross contamination by separating, storage, preparation, holding, and display. 3-302.11(A)(2) Food protected cross contamination separating types of raw animal food storage, preparation, holding, display.
19 Observed a leak underneath the right compartment of the two-compartment sink. Observed a leak at the pipes where beverages are dumped near the dishwashing machine. Please have these leaks repaired/ sealed so that dirty water does NOT drip onto the kitchen floor. Ensure that all kitchen and bathroom plumbing are free of leaks, in good repair, and conveying all sewage/ wastewater in a timely manner. Ensure the following: 5-205.15(A) A plumbing system shall be repaired according to the Plumbing Code.
19 Observed that the following pipes/ plumbing did NOT have a one-inch air gap above the kitchen floor or raised floor drains: the pipe below the two-compartment sink, the pipe below the ware washing (dishwashing) machine, and one of the pipes below the hose sprayer (CFM sated it comes from the discarded beverage sink). These pipes should either be cut, raised, or both. Ensure that all kitchen plumbing maintains an air gap of at least one inch (1”) above the horizontal plane of the kitchen floor or one inch above the rim of funneled drain. If the diameter of the pipe is larger than one inch, then the air gap is double the diameter (example: A kitchen pipe that has a diameter of two inches NEEDS an air gap of at least four inches above the kitchen floor). This shall prevent contamination of the plumbing lines in the event of a sewage backflow. This rule applies to restaurant grade hoses or plumbing that comes from appliances such as ice machines and cold holds. The pipes can be cut at an angle to ensure that the discarded water still flows into the floor drain. Ensure the following: 5-202.13 Backflow prevention, air gap.
29 Observed that the ware washing machine was NOT dispensing Bleach/ Chlorine sanitizer since the concentration of the leftover sanitizer was below 50 PPM. Ensure that Bleach/ Chlorine sanitizers have a concentration of 50 to 100 Parts Per Million (PPM), and Quaternary Ammonium sanitizers have a concentration of 200 to 400 PPM. These concentrations are NEEDED to effectively sanitize food-contact surfaces and nonfood-contact surfaces. If the concentrations are too high, then the sanitizers shall contaminate the food-contact and nonfood-contact surfaces of the dishes since it is considered toxic. If the concentration is too low, then the surfaces shall not be disinfected, and the growth of pathogenic microorganisms shall contaminate the next food item that is placed. The inspector has instructed the CFMs to DISCONTINUE using the ware washing machine until Ecolab comes out and checks why th sanitizer is NOT dispensing during the sanitize cycle. The dirty dishes shall have to be Sanitized by hand at the three-compartment sink. Ensure the following: 4-501.116 Concentration of the sanitizing solution shall be accurately determined by using a test kit or other device.
27 Observed that the Cres warming rack read 160 F on th thermometer outside but the TCS food inside was temping at 103 degrees Fahrenheit (F). Observed that cooked rice that was cooled down was temping at 47 F and higher inside of a cold hold unit on the line (far left). Ensure that all cold hold units, reach-in coolers, refrigerators, cold tables, and walk-in coolers are sufficient in number and capacity to keep Time/ Temperature Control for Safety (TCS) food and beverages below 41 F and out of the danger zone. If TCS food has been out of temperature for more than four (4) hours, then the TCS food MUST be discarded immediately. Have the technician diagnose why they are not keeping temperature (the Freon/ refrigerant levels could be low, the compressor, the filters, or the coils may need to be replaced, etc.). For now, do NOT use the bottom of the unit until it can keep an internal temperature of 41 F or lower, or keep track of Time when TCS food has been out of temperature (CANNOT exceed 4 hours). Ensure the following: 4-301.11 Cooling, heating, and holding capacities. Equipment.

NOTE: The City of San Antonio Metropolitan Health District presents food establishment "Inspection Scores" calculated from a perfect 100 score minus any identified violations and subsequent demerits. The demerits system is computed based upon the number of violations found during a regular food establishment inspection. There are three categories of demerits and each are assigned a demerit score of 3, 2 or 1 points. A total demerit score of zero (0) indicates no violations were noted at the time of the inspection and is therefore reflected in a calculated "Inspections Score" of 100. It should be noted that a score of zero (0) demerits or a calculated "Inspection Score" of 100 does not mean that absolute perfect conditions exist at a facility/restaurant, and should not be the basis for any expectation by visitors. Scores and demerits listed on this site only represent the state of the facility/restaurant at the time of inspection.

Any reference to specific food establishments or facilities does not constitute its endorsement or recommendation by the San Antonio Metropolitan Health District.
