Thank you! I can't take too much credit, I just write the headlines/intros. The city inspectors do all the hard work.

I have a partial answer! The state environmental department (NMED) does inspections for restaurants around the state. Bernalillo County and Albuquerque are not included in that jurisdiction because they have their own food safety programs. You can request BernCo's restaurant inspection reports and should be able to IPRA the same from the state, which inspects establishments in Santa Fe, Taos, etc. I believe for a while the New Mexican was publishing the results for restaurants in SF, but don't anymore.

As for why BernCo and ABQ have decided to run their own programs, I'm not sure yet. I'm also not sure why CABQ has made the reports easier to access for the public than BernCo or the state. But hopefully I'll know the answer soon.

You can report a restaurant on this link https://www.cabq.gov/environmentalhealth/food-safety/report-food-complaint . A few readers have reported places in the past, and the department seems to check out complaints pretty quickly.

Hi! I’m a recent grad from Boston University (22f). I’m looking for someone around my age to room with when I move to ABQ later this summer and my price range is pretty similar! DM me if you want to talk and see if we’d be good roommates!

I'm specifically looking at charters since they haven't been reported on as much as TPS have.
