In a recent risk factor inspection, the Prince William Health District cited Bristow restaurant Quetzalteco Grill for three critical violations of the health code July 6.

According to the Health District report, the critical violations include:
Critical (Corrected During Inspection): Unwrapped or uncovered food in coolers.

“Restaurant inspections are normally scheduled for one to four inspections per year, depending on the complexity of the menu, how much food is made from raw products, and how much is made in advance rather than cooked-to-order,” the agency states on their website.
When inspectors observe violations during a routine inspection, they are detailed in a report and classified as either critical (posing a direct or immediate threat to consumers) or non-critical (a failure of cleaning or maintenance), they said.
These inspections are considered by the Health District as a snapshot of a specific day of operation.
According to the agency, “Ideally, an operation would have no critical violations, or none which are not corrected immediately and not repeated. In our experience, it is unrealistic to expect that a complex, full-service food operation can routinely avoid any violations.”
