San Francisco Restaurant Inspection Lookup

How SF inspections are scored

San Francisco uses a 100-point scoring system. Restaurants scoring 90 or above receive a green 'Passed' posting, 85–89 receive a yellow 'Conditional Pass', and below 85 receive a red 'Failed' posting. Unlike NYC, SF's system doesn't use letter grades but does use color-coded posting requirements.

Violation categories in SF

SF violations are classified by risk level. High-risk violations (improper food temperatures, bare-hand contact with food, sick food handlers) are most heavily weighted. Moderate and low-risk violations cover issues like facility maintenance, equipment condition, and record-keeping.
