Suwanee Restaurant Inspections: Twisted Taco

How did the eatery on Lawrenceville-Suwanee Road fare in two recent health checks?

Twisted Taco is one of the newer restaurants in Suwanee, having opened in summer 2012 in a vacant building near Taco Mac.

And in two health inspections in late January 2013, the Tex-Mex style eatery received consecutive "C" grades, for scores in the 70s.

The inspections were done by the East Metro Health District, a function of the Gwinnett, Newton and Rockdale Health Department.
