Arlington Restaurant Inspections: 134 Violations At 28 Locations

ARLINGTON, VA — Officials from Arlington County Public Health inspected food preparation and storage businesses in Arlington County. Between Oct. 1-6, officials inspected 48 businesses, of which 28 restaurants were in violation.

Violations noted below — such as the 25 at the Top Thai Restaurant — involve issues that would typically require a re-inspection if not corrected or those that are more likely than other violations to contribute to food contamination.

"In our experience, it is unrealistic to expect that a complex, full-service food operation can routinely avoid any violations," according to Virginia Department of Health's website.

Here are the inspection violations reported between Oct. 1-6:
