This week’s Restaurant Report Card includes six perfect scores, all out of Aiken County.

Our lowest scores of the week are out of Columbia County.

Arby's at 4389 Washington Road in Evans scored a 79.

Inspectors took off points for food kept at improper temperatures, employees weren't wearing hair restraints and certain foods were labeled out of date.

KFC on South Horizon Parkway in Grovetown scored an 80 for mold being in the tray of the drink machine, employee drinks in the prep area with no lids and a refrigerator was missing a thermometer.

It's an 84 for Wendy's at 3859 Washington Road in Martinez.

Points were taken off for cold food kept at improper temperatures, equipment that needed to be replaced and all equipment needed cleaning.

Aiken County had all the perfect scores this week, six to be exact.

In the city of Aiken, Evergreen Buffet on York Street, Pizza Joint and Dunkin Donuts on Richland Avenue.

Gary's Hamburgers on Bettis Academy Road in Graniteville, Tiger Soul Food on Augusta Road in Warrenville and Maria's Mexican Restaurant on East Pine Log Road all received a 100.

Keep in mind, each restaurant score is based on the week the health inspector visited that particular restaurant.

This week's scores are for March 9 - 13.

their BUTTS. It's in every resturant to go into. McDonalds this goes to you too. Some of you may have a clean store but your people ARE NOT CLEAN!! I think closing the store first off will change a lot of this nastiness. Everytime we go out the people who serve you are so rude and their pants are below their waist. Schools may not care but food service people should. There are a lot of people who need jobs who don't sag. Hire them. Who cares what age. Niceness and cleanness is what counts.

I know exactly what they are talking with the Arby's in Evans. Just last month I meet with a friend and the pastor's wife at my church, My turkey tasted funny on my sandwich, our fries were under cooked, the apples in the chicken salad sandwich tasted like beer, and we saw roaches in the back of the lobby. It is about time they started really checking these stores and not just over looking certain things. Disgusting!!!!!!!

All have high school students and 20 ish people, that live in the Evans area that work in those restaurants. Some of them are rude and busy texting on their phones to work!! These restaurants need to hire people, that need and want to work.

What do you think about Tiger's return to golf for the Masters Tournament?

  • Too soon, he should focus on his family
  • He's apologized, it's time for him to return to the game
