What’s considered failing?
Failing scores change from one health inspector to the next but the industry standard is that anything below a 70 (out of 100) is failing, according to April Majors, public information officer for the Fulton County Environmental Health Services Department.
With out further ado, here’s a list of Fulton County restaurants that failed their health inspection in November– Bon appétit!

Here is the link that explains the process that Fulton County resto operators should use if they wish to contest their scores BEFORE they have a chance to be published like this.
The Georgia Restaurant Association (GRA) offers regular meetings on the Food Code with a Fulton County Food Code expert that can help you avoid these problems to begin with. The workshop is FREE to any Resto Operator. You don’t have to be a GRA Member to attend. Here is the link to their page
If you are not a member of the GRA, you should seriously consider joining their organization. Remember, there is safety in numbers and it costs money to create and manage these kinds of programs. If you consider the amount of money that you can lose because of being shut down, and the cost of membership; Membership is a SMALL Price to pay!
Not as many as usual. That’s great!
Oh good. I only eat at 2 of these places on a regular basis…
I wish that all scores were posted for customer to see – as in California – I think it would improve conditions in kitchens. It is a bit ridiculous that they are not.
They are, Capella… all bars and restaurants in Georgia are required to post their last report in clear view.
Ormsbys 🙁
I just called Ormsby’s and they informed me they got a 92 “A” on their most recent score.
I can’t find a second source to confirm this ever happened so I question this.
