Dive into the latest restaurant buzz in El Paso, where we're serving up transparency on inspection scores.

The El Paso Department of Public Health inspects businesses on their food handling practices.

Inspections are conducted in the city of El Paso, Anthony, Clint, Horizon City, Socorro, Vinton and El Paso County.

A score of 70 or above is passing. A score of 60 or below will initiate the closure of the establishment. An inspection conducted on any given day may not represent the establishment's overall, long-term conditions.
