Restaurants and kitchens in Mississippi are rated “A” if they pass the state health department inspection, “B” if all violations are corrected during the inspection and “C” if the violations are critical.
Since Nov. 21, health department inspectors scored 72 restaurants an A with no violations and seven a B.
These three restaurants were given a C:
