[Editor’s note: The report mentioned here is from an inspection conducted in October 2025 and may not represent the future health inspection status of the food establishment.]
The GNR County Health Departments conducted routine health inspections of restaurants throughout October 2025. Many food establishments passed the inspection with a score of 70 or higher; however, some failed. These restaurants then underwent a follow-up inspection soon after.
Restaurants That Failed Routine Inspections but Passed Reinspections
In October, three restaurants in Atlanta that received unsatisfactory scores passed the follow-up inspection. These restaurants worked on the violations documented by the health department.

For this score, the facility also received an “A” grade. The facility is scheduled for another routine inspection between December 17, 2025, and October 17, 2026.

On October 24, 2025, the follow-up inspection was conducted, and the facility received a score of 84. The follow-up inspection report documents a few repeated violations. The facility will continue to undergo routine inspections for the next 12 months.
Hokkaido Ramen House

- Follow-Up Score: 84 B
Hokkaido Ramen House underwent a routine inspection on October 20, 2025. In the inspection, the restaurant received an unsatisfactory score of 60. Following this, the restaurant was instructed to correct the documented violations and undergo a reinspection.
In the follow-up inspection, the restaurant earned a score of 84, which qualified as a passing grade. However, violations related to food storage and separation, and hygiene were documented. The restaurant will continue to undergo routine inspection for the next 12 months.
Restaurant Ordered Closed After Routine Inspection, Awaiting Reinspection
One restaurant from October 2025 is still awaiting reinspection after the health inspectors suggested it close during routine inspection. Here are the details.
Mambo’s Cafe
- Where: 2925 Buford Dr Bldg 900 Buford, GA 30519
- When: October 27, 2025
- Score: 46 U
Mambo’s Café in Buford received an unsatisfactory score after multiple health code violations, largely due to a lack of managerial oversight that led to improper food handling and employee practices.
An open box of raw shrimp was stored above fries and plantains in the upright freezer. The dish machine required repair. Mold-like buildup was found on the food contact surface inside the ice machine.
The facility also had a second consecutive violation of improperly handling time/temperature-controlled food. Based on this and the other violations documented in the health report, the facility received a score of 46. A follow-up inspection will be held within 10 days, and the facility must earn a score of 80 or above.
GNR County Health Departments conduct regular inspections to help ensure food safety at local restaurants.
