Another week, another restaurant performed poorly on its annual health inspection. Little is often done to these restaurants that do not score well on the once-a-year visit from the health inspector. Whether the business receives a poor grade or fails entirely, the restaurant will almost always remain open (it takes multiple failures stacked on top of each other for a food license to be pulled from an establishment). And while that is the case, it is important for the general public to know of the poorly performing restaurants, so they can make their own educational decisions on whether to return to the restaurant or not. This includes one metro Phoenix restaurant that scored a D on its most recent inspection.

And, recently, one of the top names in serving up breakfast around Arizona has announced it will not only open one new destination in the Valley but seven over the next two years.
