Credentials & red-flag check

• Official site blocked; menu, hours and prices unverified.

Georgia DPH food-service inspections, last 24 months (official portal ga.healthinspections.us, facility “The Curious Pig”, permit FSP-056-000517 [1]). Georgia grades: A = 90–100, B = 80–89, C = 70–79, U = 69 or below (unsatisfactory).

Health & safety rubric score: 9/10. Rule used for every restaurant: base on the latest routine score (95+ → 9, 90–94 → 8, 85–89 → 7, 80–84 → 6, 70–79 → 5, under 70 → 3); −1 for another C-range result or −2 for another unsatisfactory result in the window; +1 if a follow-up after a sub-90 routine scored 95+; −1 if the latest routine has 2+ repeat violations. Provisional-permit (pre-opening) inspections are listed but not scored. Applied here: latest routine 95/100 (A) on 2026-08-18.

Other review platforms (checked 2026-10-11)

Blocked or unavailable: Yelp (bot check), Restaurant Guru (served a “verify you are human” page after three fetches; we stopped and used only the three pages read before that), and official sites behind Cloudflare. We did not get around any bot check. Ratings marked “Google-derived” come from Exa Places or Restaurant Guru pages that republish Google Maps data; they were read directly but are third-party copies.

What recent reviewers say (keyword analysis)

• Window: 2024-10-11 to 2026-10-11 (last 24 months). Sample: 3 reviews, dated 2026-08-15 to 2026-09-15. Sources: Restaurantji.
• Top compliments: service good / attentive (1).
• Top complaints: none.
• Recent-experience score (RCE): 5.5/10 (1 positive vs 0 negative theme mentions; samples under 10 reviews are pulled toward a neutral 5; n=0 gives exactly 5). Only reviews visible on the pages read are counted; this is not a random sample, and aggregator snapshots show only a few reviews each. Search snippets were not counted.
