I'm impressed! Maricopa County restaurant reports for July showed not as many severe violators as usual. As a matter of fact this is probably the smallest number of restaurants with 7 major violations or more in a month that I have ever reported here, and I've been doing this for years! That's good news. The other good news is that there were plenty of dining establishments all around town, of all kinds and for all taste buds and wallet thicknesses, that are doing the right things to provide us with a healthy eating environment. Read on to find out which places had a tough month, and find the restaurants in your neighborhood with the best scores for July.
