Safe Bite Grade F Failing 06/02/2026
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 06/02/2026. Previous inspection history affects the grade. How we calculate.

Grade History
Current Safe Bite Grade: F
06/02/2026 Routine
8 critical -755 points A → F
12/16/2025 Routine
0 critical 0 points A
Inspection — 06/02/2026
Safe Bite Grade: F
Critical ~8.0× illness risk = 90 pts 06/02/26

Food stored for cold-holding and service was not held at a temperature of 41 °F or below.

Safe Bite Analysis Listeria Salmonella B. cereus C. perfringens

Food held above 41°F enters the 'danger zone' where bacteria multiply rapidly. Listeria can grow even under refrigeration — above 41°F, growth accelerates dangerously. This is one of the most common causes of foodborne outbreaks.

Critical ~6.0× illness risk = 80 pts 06/02/26

Rodents are present in the establishment.

Safe Bite Analysis Salmonella E. coli (pathogenic) Hantavirus

Rodents contaminate food and surfaces with urine, droppings, and hair. They carry Salmonella and pathogenic E. coli that can cause severe food poisoning.

Critical Repeat ~12.0× illness risk = 100 pts × 1.5 (repeat) 06/02/26

Food consists in whole or in part of a filthy| putrid| or decomposed substance. [Repeat]

Safe Bite Analysis High bacterial load Spoilage toxins Mold toxins

Decomposed or putrid food contains extremely high levels of bacteria and toxins. It is visibly unsafe and should never be anywhere near a kitchen — let alone served to customers.

Critical Repeat ~8.0× illness risk = 90 pts × 1.5 (repeat) 06/02/26

Food stored for cold-holding and service was not held at a temperature of 41 °F or below. [Repeat]

Safe Bite Analysis Listeria Salmonella B. cereus C. perfringens

Food held above 41°F enters the 'danger zone' where bacteria multiply rapidly. Listeria can grow even under refrigeration — above 41°F, growth accelerates dangerously. This is one of the most common causes of foodborne outbreaks.

Critical Repeat ~2.2× illness risk = 50 pts × 1.5 (repeat) 06/02/26

Food contact surfaces and utensils are not clean to sight and touch. (Ice machine, dishes) [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.

Critical Repeat ~2.2× illness risk = 50 pts × 1.5 (repeat) 06/02/26

Warewashing equipment used as food contact surfaces are not cleaned as required. [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.
