Barnison Catering
95/100 — Excellent
Scores higher than 4,171 of 6,939 Austin-area facilities with a published score — about 60% of them. Citywide median current score: 93/100.
What a score of 95 means
Excellent. Inspections start at 100 and lose points for each violation the inspector writes up, so 95 means 5 points of violations were recorded on that visit. 90 and above is the strongest of the three bands this site groups Austin scores into, and it is where most inspected Austin restaurants land.
Scores higher than 4,171 of 6,939 Austin-area facilities with a published score — about 60% of them. Citywide median current score: 93/100. In ZIP 78731, it scores higher than 53 of 96 facilities with a published score (ZIP median: 93/100).
A score is a snapshot of a single visit on a single day. It measures compliance with food-safety rules — not food quality, service or how clean the place is today. Austin Public Health does not publish the individual violations behind a score, so this dataset cannot say what was found.

Inspections conducted by Austin Public Health
Health inspections are conducted by Austin Public Health to ensure restaurants maintain proper food safety standards. Scores are based on compliance with Texas Food Establishment Rules (TFER) and assess factors including food temperature control, employee hygiene, facility cleanliness, and pest control. Regular inspections help protect public health by identifying and correcting violations before they can cause foodborne illness. Austin Public Health does not publish individual violation records alongside the score, so specific findings from a given visit are not part of this dataset.
