GERMANTOWN, MD — When it comes to being healthy, one of the most important things you can do is make sure you're eating in a clean kitchen. While we can't offer you a kitchen tour, we can help give you an idea of how clean it could be. Find the most recent restaurant and food service inspections in Germantown and elsewhere in Montgomery County, performed by the Licensure and Regulatory Office at Health and Human Services.

Two types of inspections are done: comprehensive inspections evaluate the sanitation, maintenance and food service operations of the facility; and monitoring inspections involve checking the food service operation for critical food temperatures, equipment temperatures and general food handling, cleanliness practices.

County inspectors check kitchens in churches, schools, pool houses and golf clubs. They also monitor the cleanliness of snack bars, kiosks inside grocery stores, hotel kitchens, bakeries and bars.
