What Grade Did Your Favorite Restaurant Receive?

Patch lists the top- and bottom-rated restaurants and food markets in your neighborhood.

You’ve seen the blue letter grade in the window of your favorite restaurant, but have given any thought to what the Los Angeles County Department of Public Health is looking for when they inspect? All of the restaurants and food markets listed in the “90272” received an A-rating from inspectors. Follow this link to the Department of Public Health website and enter 90272 for a complete list of restaurants and food markets. You can also see which health codes were violated by which establishment.

The Department of Public Health has five risk factors that restaurants should avoid to prevent from earning low marks, or worse, putting the public at risk:

  1. Acquiring food from unsafe sources
  2. Improper holding temperatures  
  3. Inadequate cooking
  4. Contaminated equipment
  5. Poor personal hygiene

Points can be deducted for any number of violations ranging from the improper storage of food to dirty kitchen facilities.
