This is really helpful. Thanks! I also like that you can change the chart to rank them by score so you can avoid restaurants that are not safe.
Locklear's was a good restaurant at one time. It has really gone downhill in quality. We stopped going awhile back. Perhaps we avoided food poisoning!

After watching programs like Restaurant Impossible and Kitchen Nightmares, I have second thoughts about restaurants in general and if they cannot at least score a 98, they are not worth my time. There are too many restaurants around these areas for me to play games with kitchens that do not measure up. I do not necessarily have a lot of faith in the inspectors, in general; all the shows that feature these kitchen disasters never talk about the "inspections" that should have been going on in these places and many are in towns that are in locations where you would never expect that this kind of unsanitary behavior would be going on and going on for years.
