A quality audit form for head chefs and restaurant managers evaluating food quality during active service. Assesses plating presentation against recipe photos, portion consistency, taste and seasoning, ingredient freshness, temperature at service, and adherence to the menu specification — the standards that determine whether every dish leaving the kitchen meets the restaurant's promise to its customers.

Food quality audits during service catch the drift that happens over time — portions gradually shrinking, plating getting sloppy during a rush, seasoning varying by cook. Conducting the audit during actual service reveals the real quality level, not the quality the kitchen produces when it knows it's being watched.
