What information is included in Restaurant Inspection reports?

Our Staff inspect restaurants to make sure the food you're served is cooked, prepared, and stored safely so you can avoid foodborne illness (commonly called food poisoning). Reports include information on violations as:

Priority Items -- things that can cause foodborne illness. Example: Meats are not cooked to the right temperature to kill foodborne disease germs, food is not kept hot enough until it is served, and food is not kept cold enough.

Priority Foundation Items -- things that don’t directly cause foodborne illness, but can support it. Example: Sink that doesn’t have soap and paper towel available for workers to wash their hands.       

Core Items -- things that relate to the general cleanliness of the restaurant. Example: Microwave that is not cleaned on a frequent basis.
