Food establishment closures in King County

Public Health lists the reason(s) the establishment was closed. Reasons for closing an establishment may be due to food code violations, failure to follow the permitting process, a COVID-19 outbreak, or COVID-19 Safe Start guideline violations.

Depending on the type of closure, additional information may include the date the facility was shut down, whether the establishment has reopened, the date it reopened, a link to the inspector’s report, and additional notes.

Information for restaurants closed by the health department will remain online for a minimum of 7 days after the establishment is reopened.
