It's one thing to fail an inspection — but it's another to not pass for very basic things, especially when they're repeat violations. You would think, having been through it all before, you would have been prepared, but unfortunately, it didn't go your way.

Such is the case for a longtime restaurant off Harmony Road in Fort Collins, one that nearly everybody in town has been to at one point or another over the years.

As a reminder, restaurants in Larimer County are no longer rated or graded with feedback like "excellent," "good" or "fair." As of Jan. 1, 2020, they are simply allowed up to 49 points worth of violations to "pass." 50-109 points earn them another try at a "re-inspection," and anything over 110 earns them an immediate "closure."

The worst part is Carrabba's Italian Grill at 1212 Oakridge Drive in Fort Collins generally aced the inspection on all the typically "gross" things you and I would care about, but failed on really simple, common things that they have failed before, earning "repeat violation" status and requiring a re-inspection after December 8.

In addition to the usual "handwashing" issues we see on all these inspections, they also did not earn a passing grade for their temperature control procedures, being dinged for improper cooling times, improper hot hold temps and improper cold hold temps. These infractions are extremely common, seen on nearly every "non-passing" inspection done by the health department.
