A restaurant or a food facility must close when an issue that is a significant public health danger is found in the inspection. If it cannot immediately fix the issue, it must close to prevent illness or injury. Some common reasons which lead to closure of restaurants are:

  • Lack of refrigeration or hot water.

  • Misuse of dangerous chemicals.

  • Repeated high score violations.

  • Apparent foodborne illness outbreak.

  • No permit or permit expired in the past.

  • Very unsanitary condition.
