“Report Card” segments are gathered directly from the public records of regular inspections conducted by county health department officials in Central Texas. KWTX does not determine what locations are inspected and does not assign the overall scores which are reflected in percentages. Any questions regarding the status of an inspection, reinspection, or the score reported should be directed to the individual county health departments in which those businesses are located.

WACO, Texas (KWTX) - Here is the latest Restaurant Report Card for Central Texas.

Asian Buffet at 1104 East Central Texas Expressway in Killeen got a 91 on a recent inspection.

According to the food safety worker, the biggest problem was a box of whole raw potatoes that rodents had been gnawing on at least two of them.
