Medium Risk

Pizza Hut appears in inspection records three times, starting in 2025. The latest inspection on file is from Dec 30, 2025. The medium risk tier sits in the middle: not spotless, but not alarming either.

By comparison, the average Sandersville facility scores 87, putting Pizza Hut on the weaker side. On the whole, the file is mixed but not concerning.
