Four out of five food-serving establishments in town received mediocre “Fair” ratings from Darien Health Department inspectors, with a new one getting a “Good” rating and an almost perfect score, according to the most recently released inspection reports. How the ratings system and scores work

Restaurants in town are rated under the Darien Health Department’s own Good/Fair/Poor ratings system. Health inspectors also use the state health code regulations to score restaurants, with a perfect score set at 100, and deductions for various code violations. The Darien system takes into account problems that are ongoing or that have been fixed, so a restaurant scoring higher than others on the state scale may actually get a lower score on the Darien scale, or vice versa. You can find the past several inspection ratings under the Darien ratings system for food-serving establishments on this website.
