Weld County’s Gourmet Report Card: A New York Take

Ah, Weld County! Where the hot dogs might be kosher and every sushi roll gets judged. This place isn’t playing games when it comes to food safety. They’ve got a system that stacks establishments into three neat categories: pass, reinspection required, and closed. It’s like the sorting hat of food safety, sending eateries into houses you’d rather not discuss at dinner with your mother.

Get with the Program: Scoring Wisdom in Weld

So, how does this work? Let’s start with a "pass." That’s when a joint meets the basic standards. Simple, right? Well, not always. They might have a few violations, but nothing that’ll give you nightmares. Meanwhile, there’s the "reinspection required" zone. It’s kind of like getting a warning from your landlord about keeping your place a bit too grubby. Fix it up or you’ll have to deal with a follow-up.

And then, the horror story known as "closed." This one’s not pretty; it’s where health inspectors find things more unsettling than a subway rat. The establishment must shut down until someone waves a magic cleanliness wand and clears up the mess.

The Lowdown: March 7-13, 2025 Inspections

Weld’s inspectors have been busy bees from March 7 to 13, 2025, scouring kitchens and poking into pantries. Here’s their latest intel:

Greeley: Where the Eats Meet the Streets

• Ambrosia Asian Bistro at 3636 W. 10th St., Suite A: Reinspection required. It’s like that cousin who just can’t clean his room on time.

• Others in Greeley like Blackjack Pizza, The Blue Mug Coffee Bar, and Burger King, to name a few, all grab a pass. Kudos for keeping things in line!

Evans: Not Just Another Name

• In Evans, Frida Grill and Cafe at 2903 37 St. needs another look. You might say they’re not quite ready for the spotlight just yet.

But hey, Dos Rios Elementary and McDonald’s have aced their inspections. Those fries can’t pass without a nod of approval!

Windsor: Where Breakfast Matters

• Over in Windsor, First Watch Restaurants and Shine Café served up safety with style. They passed their inspections without breaking a sweat. Bravo!
