San Bernardino County Public Health inspects restaurants countywide and posts color-coded grade placards (Pass, Conditional Pass, Closed) at the entrance after each routine inspection.
The Department of Public Health, Environmental Health Services Division, inspects all retail food facilities in San Bernardino County at least twice per year. Inspectors score facilities under the California Retail Food Code (CalCode). Major violations involving temperature, pest activity, or sewage trigger immediate closure. Restaurants must post the latest placard near the public entrance and keep recent inspection reports available for guests. Mobile food trucks operating in unincorporated areas, Twentynine Palms, and surrounding desert communities follow the same rules and require commissary agreements.
Operating without valid permit, missing placard, or major CalCode violations risk closure, fines up to 1000 dollars per day, and permit revocation.
