1 failed, several require re-inspection; rat droppings, roaches seen in Dallas inspections

One restaurant failed, several required re-inspections, and rat droppings and roaches were seen in the latest Dallas inspections, according to city data.

There were 727 inspections from Nov. 15 to Dec. 14.

Dallas inspection data is based on a 100-point system. A score range of 100-90 is considered to be very good and the next inspection is the regular six-month inspection. Scores from 89-80 are considered good with the same next six-month inspection window. Scores from 79-70 are passing and require re-inspection within 30 days. Scores from 69-60 are failing and require follow-up inspections within 10 days or the establishment faces closure. Scores under 60 are unacceptable and require closure and inspection before reopening.

No restaurant scored under 60 in the latest Dallas inspection period.
