Have you ever pulled up to a restaurant and found a Health Department closure notice on the front door? 🚨
That happened to me recently and it sent me down a rabbit hole researching restaurant inspections across San Diego County.
What I discovered surprised me. Food safety issues can happen anywhere—from local mom-and-pop restaurants to high-end establishments.
This post is not about bashing any business. It’s about educating consumers and showing you how to check inspection reports, violations, closures, and reopening approvals for yourself.
Before your next meal out, take 30 seconds and look it up. The information is public, and it could help you make a more informed decision about where you eat.
Trust, but verify. 🍽️
