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.

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.
Frequently asked questions
- How do I check a restaurant's health inspection in Chicago?
- Search the establishment by name or address on Local Health Inspections to see its most recent result, any violations, and its full inspection history for Chicago.
- How many food premises are tracked in Chicago?
- We currently track 39,761 facilities in Chicago, drawn from the local health department's published inspection data.
- What does a failed inspection or closure mean?
- A failed inspection means violations serious enough to require correction and usually a follow-up visit; a closure means an imminent health hazard forced the business to stop operating until it passes re-inspection. Grading systems differ — some cities post letter grades, others use scores or pass/fail — so see our placards and scores guide for the full breakdown.
