Several restaurants in Arcadia received a C rating during their recent inspections.

An employee at Doe Jon Station at 46 W. Las Tunas neglected to wash his or her hands, resulting in the eatery getting slapped with a C rating. Dumpling House at 921 S. Baldwin Ave., Inaka at 838 S. Baldwin Ave. and Quickly Café at 171 E. Live Oak Ave. also received C ratings—all for failing to properly clean food preparation surfaces.
