SAN ANTONIOUPDATE: Metropolitan Health has corrected a spelling error in its initial report, so the headline and article have been edited to indicate food was covered by cloth, not clothes

Taqueria Reyes, located in the 10500 block of U.S. 181 South, received a score of 81 and was also written up for having missing thermometers in its freezers.

The walk-in refrigerator was having difficulty staying at 45 degrees and was in need of servicing, the health report states.
