UPDATE: The restaurant was inspected Wednesday and received a 92/A.
ORIGINAL STORY (published April 10): A barbecue restaurant failed a recent health inspection, with officials noting failure of the person in charge to "provide active managerial control."
2 Boy's BBQ, located in downtown Atlanta, scored a 56/U following the Friday evaluation; 69 and below is considered failing. Its prior grade, from April 2016, was a B.
According to the recent report, an employee was observed eating a french fry while preparing food items and there was a pink mold-like substance inside an ice machine.

Officials also reported that a legal notice to “cease and desist storing, providing for consumption of alcohol without proper permit” was issued.
Owner Al Boyce said Monday the inspection coincided with a catering, and the main issue was that the temperature for some of the food dropped.
Follow-up inspections are generally completed within 10 days of the original evaluation.
