Los Angeles Restaurant Inspection Lookup
LA County's Environmental Health Services Bureau publishes restaurant inspection records for over 100,000 food facilities. Finding detailed results — not just the letter grade — requires digging into their database. Panko Alerts simplifies this.
LA's grading system in detail
LA County uses a 100-point scale with letter grades: 90–100 is an A, 80–89 is a B, and 70–79 is a C. Restaurants scoring below 70 do not receive a grade card and must close for re-inspection. The grade must be posted at the entrance. Inspections occur 1–3 times per year based on the establishment's risk category.
What's behind the score
LA inspection reports list each violation found, its point deduction, the corrective action required, and whether it was corrected on-site during the inspection. Understanding these details — not just the final letter — gives a more complete picture of a restaurant's food safety practices.
