Safe Bite Grade F Failing 05/15/2026
Share:

Safe Bite Grade is independently calculated by Safe Bite Report based on public LDH inspection data. Not an official health department grade. Grade based on latest inspection cycle through 05/15/2026. Previous inspection history affects the grade. How we calculate.

Grade History
Current Safe Bite Grade: F
05/15/2026 Routine
4 critical -182 points D → F
01/08/2026 Routine
2 critical -95 points D
Inspection — 05/15/2026
Safe Bite Grade: F
Critical Repeat Corrected ~1.3× illness risk = 30 pts × 1.5 (repeat) × 0.5 (corrected) 05/15/26

Employee was drinking in a food preparation or other area where food equipment| utensils or other items requiring protection were stored. [Corrected][Repeat]

Safe Bite Analysis Norovirus Salmonella (via saliva/hand contamination)

Employee beverages in food preparation areas create contamination risk through spills and through hand-to-mouth-to-food contact. An infected employee's drink can become a transmission vehicle.

Critical ~1.15× illness risk = 20 pts 05/15/26

A current state food safety certificate is not held by the owner or a designated employee of the establishment.

Safe Bite Analysis Management control failure (indirect)

A missing food safety certificate means the person in charge may not have been trained to identify and prevent food safety hazards. Research shows that restaurants with certified managers have fewer critical violations.

Critical Corrected ~1.7× illness risk = 40 pts × 0.5 (corrected) 05/15/26

Working containers of chemicals are not labeled. [Corrected]

Safe Bite Analysis Chemical poisoning (bleach, degreaser, sanitizer)

Unlabeled chemical containers are a recipe for accidental poisoning. When a bottle of concentrated bleach or degreaser isn't labeled, it can easily be mistaken for water, cooking oil, or another ingredient.

Critical Repeat Corrected ~3.0× illness risk = 60 pts × 1.5 (repeat) × 0.5 (corrected) 05/15/26

Chemicals are stored with/above food| equipment| utensils| linens| single-service or single use articles. [Corrected][Repeat]

Safe Bite Analysis Chemical toxins (bleach, degreasers, pesticides)

Cleaning chemicals, pesticides, and degreasers stored near food or food-contact surfaces can spill, leak, or produce fumes that contaminate food. Chemical poisoning from contaminated food can cause severe burns, organ damage, and death.

Non-Critical Repeat 0 pts 05/15/26

Floors are not clean. [Repeat]

Non-Critical Repeat 0 pts 05/15/26

Walls/ceilings or attached equipment are not clean. [Repeat]

Non-Critical 0 pts 05/15/26

Bulk containers are not properly labeled.

Non-Critical 0 pts 05/15/26

Non-food contact surfaces of equipment have an accumulation of dust| dirt| food residue and other debris.

Non-Critical Repeat ~2.2× illness risk = 50 pts × 1.5 (repeat) 05/15/26

Non-food contact surfaces are not cleaned at a frequency necessary to preclude accumulation of soil residues. [Repeat]

Safe Bite Analysis Norovirus Listeria Salmonella E. coli

Cutting boards, slicers, prep tables, and utensils that aren't clean become vehicles for spreading bacteria and viruses between food items. A dirty slicer used for deli meat is a classic Listeria transmission pathway.

Non-Critical ~2.2× illness risk = 50 pts 01/08/26

Non-food contact surfaces are not cleaned at a frequency necessary to preclude accumulation of soil residues.

Safe Bite Analysis Norovirus Listeria Salmonella E. coli

Cutting boards, slicers, prep tables, and utensils that aren't clean become vehicles for spreading bacteria and viruses between food items. A dirty slicer used for deli meat is a classic Listeria transmission pathway.
