Restaurant Reservations Search our database for inspection reports of the Twin Cities' 40 most popular restaurants. To help answer that question, the Pioneer Press in mid-July asked government regulators for the latest inspection reports at the Twin Cities 40 most popular restaurants, as determined by the Zagat survey. The links at right lead to summaries and full text versions of the latest available inspection reports. We also offer a response from restaurant owners or management. Some had excellent reports.
Some agencies write multiple reports for different sections of an establishment.
In those cases, the Pioneer Press reported the results of the main kitchen inspection. Food temperatures are among the most important safety issues. Most potentially hazardous foods must be maintained at 41 degrees Fahrenheit or colder, or at 140 degrees or hotter.
