Toronto restaurant health inspections
The City of Toronto inspects every food premises in the city and publishes the result. We hold 117,120 inspection records covering 5,372 venues, from November 2023 to September 2026. Last updated September 20, 2026.
The City publishes this data, but not in a form you can browse. These reports make it searchable — alongside each venue’s current status, because a finding from last spring is not a verdict on a kitchen today.

A conditional pass means an inspector found significant or crucial infractions and required them to be corrected. A closure means the premises was ordered shut until it was safe to reopen.
The City classifies an infraction as crucial when it is directly likely to cause foodborne illness — things like unsafe food temperatures or inadequate handwashing.
Where an inspection leads to a conviction, the City records the amount fined. These are the venues with a fine on record.
How to read an inspection
- Pass
- No infractions, or only minor ones, at the time of inspection.
- Conditional pass
- Significant or crucial infractions were found and must be corrected; the premises may keep operating while it does so, and is re-inspected.
- Closed
- The premises was ordered to close and may not reopen until it passes a follow-up inspection.
- Minor, significant, crucial
- The City’s severity grades for an individual infraction. Crucial means directly likely to cause foodborne illness.
