Every city scores differently
New York City gives restaurants a numeric score and a letter grade, where a lower score is better. Chicago gives no score at all: each inspection ends in a result such as Pass, Pass w/ Conditions or Fail. FoodCheck USA shows each city's own terms instead of inventing a single national rating. Learn how to read both.

An inspection is a snapshot of one day. A good or bad result is not a guarantee of conditions today. FoodCheck USA is independent and not a government website.
