One Tarrant County restaurant was closed and others were noted to have issues with roaches in the latest round of county health inspections, according to the report.<\/p>\n

The report compiled by the Star-Telegram contains data from May 3 through May 16 and 242 inspections.<\/p>\n

Tarrant County\u2019s health inspections function on a 100-point scale, where a score of 100 is considered perfect and a score of 70 is considered extremely poor. Tarrant County Public Health inspects all restaurants in the county except those located in Fort Worth, Arlington, Euless and North Richland Hills.<\/p>\n

Warhammer Store & Cafe, 616 S. Main St. in Grapevine, had a score of 94. Inspectors closed the location\u2019s food service area because it lacked a three-compartment warewashing sink and therefore did not meet minimum operating standards. The business must remain closed until a follow-up inspection finds violations have been corrected.<\/p>\n

Happy Bowl, 8149 White Settlement Road in White Settlement, had a score of 61. It was the only location to score below 70 in this round of inspections, and will require a follow-up inspection.<\/p>\n

Roaches were observed at two locations:<\/p>\n

Wings Over Fort Worth, 520 Alta Mere Drive in White Settlement, had a score of 80. Roaches were found by the three-compartment sink and a mop sink, according to the report.<\/p>\n

Selrico Services at Tarrant County Jail, 600 W. Weatherford St. in Fort Worth, had a score of 94. A cockroach larva was observed by the ovens in the jail\u2019s kitchen, according to the report.<\/p>\n
