Editorial Policy

Restaurant Inspection Check prioritizes official and public authority sources for restaurant inspection, food hygiene rating, health score, and food safety record guidance.

Source standards

  • We prefer official health department, food agency, city, county, state, provincial, regional, national, or local authority sources.
  • When restaurant inspection responsibility differs by location, we explain that readers should check the authority responsible for the exact restaurant address.
  • We avoid treating review sites, delivery apps, social media, or unofficial summaries as substitutes for official inspection records.

Updates and corrections

Inspection portals, public authority pages, and local lookup tools can change. Pages may include a last-checked date where useful. If a source has moved or an official link has changed, readers can send correction suggestions through the contact page.

Independence

Restaurant Inspection Check does not sell restaurant grades, remove inspection results, or certify food businesses. Editorial pages are written to help readers find and interpret official public sources.
