About inspections in Chicago

Chicago Department of Public Health inspects food-service establishments in the City of Chicago. We collect its published inspection results here so you can look up a specific restaurant or food business, see the violations recorded on each visit, and read our guides on how to interpret them.

See the official results published by Chicago Department of Public Health.

How Chicago’s results work

Results are based on official health department inspections. Depending on the jurisdiction you may see a letter grade, a numerical score, or a pass/fail outcome — our placards and scores guide explains what each result means, and our guide to how restaurant inspections work covers who inspects and how results are published.

How we decide pass or fail: where the health authority publishes its own result or grade (for example a pass/fail outcome, a letter grade, or a satisfactory/unsatisfactory rating), we use it. Otherwise we look at what the inspector found: an inspection with any higher-risk finding — one the authority flags as critical, or one about food temperatures, hand hygiene, pests, sanitizing, contamination or chemicals — counts as a fail; one with only lower-risk findings (upkeep, paperwork, training) counts as a pass with minor issues. Because some authorities record many small items on every visit, we never fail a premises just for the number of findings. The pass rate is the share of inspected premises whose most recent inspection passed.
