Helping standalone restaurants manage risk, improve consistency, and deliver a safe, high-quality dining experience.
Why RestaurantCheck?
RestaurantCheck is a comprehensive operational audit designed for standalone restaurants.
It evaluates how the restaurant operates from a Health, Safety, Security, and Environment (HSSE) perspective - covering food safety, hygiene, infrastructure, and management controls to ensure a safe, efficient, and well-managed dining operation.
What is included in RestaurantCheck
RestaurantCheck assesses the full operation, including food safety, HACCP controls, kitchen hygiene, and front-of-house cleanliness such as tables, furniture, washrooms, and guest areas. It also reviews infrastructure, equipment, cleaning protocols, and pest prevention.
Our specialists combine independent assessment with practical, on-site guidance to strengthen operational controls, improve cleanliness standards, and improve consistency across the dining experience.
Certification is awarded to standalone restaurants achieving the required benchmark score and meeting audit criteria, demonstrating strong control across food safety, hygiene, and dining environments.
Certified properties are eligible for listing on our Safe Hotels Directory, offering visible third-party recognition.
All findings, scores, and corrective actions are managed through the eCristal digital platform, enabling teams to assign tasks, upload evidence, and monitor cleanliness and hygiene performance across outlets or at portfolio level.
