DeKalb Steakhouse Passes Inspection After Two Very Low Grades

DECATUR, GA — A Lithonia steakhouse and restaurant has passed its health inspection after recently failing two inspections, one of which was a shockingly low "21."

Arizona's, on Stonecrest Avenue in DeKalb County, scored "91" on a health inspection dated Saturday, August 17. Patch was first to report Arizona's first grade of "21" on August 14, followed by a higher, though still failing, grade of "46" the next day.

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.
