Food Inspection

Scores only represent a snapshot of the facility at the time of inspection. Scoring is based on critical vs. non critical violations. Repeated facility 
names may indicate follow-up inspection of a single permitted activity or an inspection of a different activity in the same facility, i.e. meat, fish or produce departments in a grocery store.

If the restaurant is not listed the following may be occurring: change of ownership, remodeling or it is a new establishment not yet inspected.

Score Range
100-90 (Very Good - Regular 6 month inspection)
89-80 (Good - Regular 6 month inspection)
79-70 Passing - Requires re-inspection within 30 days)
69-60 (Failing - Requires follow-up inspection within 10 days or closure)
59 and below (Unacceptable - Closure; requires inspection before reopening)

Under City of Dallas Ordinance Sec. 17-10.2(b) a food establishment shall provide a copy of the most recent inspection report to any customer or potential customer upon request.
