Inspectors Find Out of Date Food, Employee Not Wearing Hair Restraint and More

Scores range from 82-B to 96-A in five Peachtree Corners restaurants recently inspected. Find out if your favorite eatery is on the list.

Following is a list of five Peachtree Corners restaurants which have been inspected recently by the Gwinnett County's Board of Health.

The Board inspects area restaurants every six months which are then graded based on an extensive criteria that includes everything from food being stored at proper temperatures to employee hygiene.

Restaurants are required to display these reports in a prominent place for diners to view. This is what we found in a random search of inspections on the county's website.
