I am a huge fan of all of the Rays restaurants. Nothing short of dying will keep me away!

Actually Claire, it seems that this is becoming a pattern with your establishment based on the inspection certificate, you scored a 59 on 5/4/12. It doesn’t matter how you clean up in that week to not get shut down, it matters how you stay at an acceptable level (for me to frequent a restaurant must be above 90 consistently) on a daily basis. For what a meal costs in your establishment, you should be able to hire competent staff to ensure your customers health and safety as well as that of your employees.
We certainly agree that a failing score is unacceptable and understand your concerns. We accept responsibility for our mistakes and have gone to great lengths to correct them. We have also implemented new checklists and standards, as well as team member training, to ensure we stay in compliance. We assure you that customer safety was not endangered at any time and that Ray’s on the River remains a safe place to eat.

You guys had a 56 this time, and a 59 for the previous inspection???
The previous score for Ray’s on the River was a 91 and issued in May of 2012. That official report is here>>> http://bit.ly/X5Etoq.
Claire, that is the week after (5/11/12) follow visit to the failing score of a 59 on 5/4/12.
A little disingenuous to claim that as your last true “score”
