In October
4550 S. Palo Verde Road
History: Inspection records indicate that this is the restaurant鈥檚 first year of operation, during which it has never received a good or excellent rating and has failed inspections on two occasions.
What the inspector saw: Two priority violations, initially earning the restaurant a "needs improvement" rating. Both involved a water heater not heating up water for hand and dish washing adequately, a problem that was not resolved by the Oct. 28 follow-up, earning La Fresita a failed inspection rating.
Follow-up: The location failed an Oct. 28 follow-up.
Response: Josie Bolanos, one of the restaurant鈥檚 owners, said a new water heater has since been installed, resolving the remaining violations. 鈥淚t was fixed,鈥 she said.
