Paulding County Restaurant Scores: See Who Was Inspected

Here are some restaurant and food service inspections conducted in and around Dallas-Hiram this month. Click here for more info.

Each item on an inspection form has a point value ranging from 1 to 9 points, with violations deducting points from a best possible score of 100. Higher points are taken for items with higher risk to cause illness, while repeat violations take even more points.

Letter grades assigned are A for totals of 100 to 90 points, B for 89 to 80, C for 79 to 70, and U for less than 70.

Because of the high quantity of restaurants in Dallas-Hiram, Patch will run restaurant inspection scores every month and only include restaurants with scores of 89 or below.
