Inspection reports are public records. We provide online access to a summary of violations for inspections conducted since May 1, 2012.
These searchable inspection reports are only a snapshot of the day and time of the inspection. On any given day, a business could have more or fewer violations than noted in an inspection report.
If you would like to see the complete inspection report or have any other questions regarding restaurants or food services establishments, please contact RiverStone Health Environmental Health Services at 406.256.2770.
5. Food contact surfaces are not cleaned and sanitized
Dirty work surfaces, utensils, cutting boards, ice buckets, etc. can carry bacteria and other hazards, which can contaminate foods and other surfaces and cause foodborne illness. These items must be cleaned and sanitized between uses and at least every four hours.

Contact local agencies for building, zoning and fire code and obtain required permits.

During the pre-opening inspection, the license fee will be collected and the license issued.
Licenses are reviewed and issued annually (January 1 – December 31) by the Montana Department of Public Health and Human Services. Current license holders will receive a renewal application in November. Renewal payments are due by December 31 to avoid a late fee.
Licensed establishments are inspected at least once a year. Inspection frequency is determined by the complexity of the operation and the history of compliance with the food rules.
