Here is a list of the health inspection scores of every Mexican food restaurant in Williamson County that has been inspected this year thus far. The scores are listed from highest to lowest.
An explanation of the scores is below the list.
*The list below includes all Williamson County Mexican restaurants that have been inspected and have a health score recorded with the Tennessee Department of Health this year. If you do not see a particular Mexican restaurant on the list it could be mean that the county satellite of the state’s central Department of Health may have performed an inspection but not yet reported it to the central office. To see older scores, check out our Health Score archives, with every score reported by the Williamson Source in these weekly posts going back nearly two years.

Quick note: A business needs to have a score of 90 to be considered “passing.” If inspectors score a business below 90, tthe business has an opportunity for a re-inspection. To stay open (and to serve food), a restaurant must score at least a 90 in the follow-up.
Inspections occur once every six months, once between January 1 and June 30 and once between July 1 and December 31 of each year.
Info: There are two types of violations- critical and non-critical. According to the Tennessee Department of Health web site:
“Critical Violations: Violations of the Food Regulations, which, if left uncorrected, are more likely than other violations to directly contribute to food contamination or illness. Examples of critical violations include poor temperature control of food, improper cooking, cooling, refrigeration, or reheating temperatures.
“Non-Critical Violations: Violations not directly related to the cause of food-borne illness, but if uncorrected, could impede the operation of the restaurant. The likelihood of food-borne illness in these cases is very low. Non-Critical violations, if left uncorrected, could lead to Critical violations. Examples of non-critical violations include a lack of facility cleanliness and maintenance.”
