Food Inspection ​

Restaurant Food Establishment Scores

Inspection scores provide a snapshot in time of a food establishment's operational and sanitation conditions during the inspection. These scores are based on a weighted system that distinguishes between critical and non-critical violations, reflecting the potential risk to public health.
Please note that repeated facility names may appear in cases where follow-up inspections are required or when multiple permitted operations exist within the same location (e.g., meat, seafood, or produce departments in a grocery store).

If a restaurant is not listed, it may be due to one of the following:

  • A recent change in ownership
  • Ongoing remodeling or facility construction
  • Newly opened and pending initial inspection

Score Interpretation Guide

  • 100–80: Meets Consumer Health Division standards
  • 79–70: Follow-up inspection required within 30 days
  • 69–60: Follow-up inspection required within 10 days
  • 59 and below: Follow-up inspection required within 24 hours

Transparency to the Consumer

Under City of Dallas Ordinance Sec. 17-10.2(b), all food establishments are required to provide a copy of their most recent health inspection report upon request to any customer or potential customer.
