Safe Bite Grade F Failing 03/25/2026
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 03/25/2026. Previous inspection history affects the grade. How we calculate.

Grade History
Current Safe Bite Grade: F
03/25/2026 Routine
4 critical -159 points C → F
11/25/2025 Routine
3 critical -75 points A → C
03/12/2025 Routine
0 critical 0 points A
Inspection — 03/25/2026
Safe Bite Grade: F
Critical Repeat Corrected ~8.0× illness risk = 90 pts × 1.5 (repeat) × 0.5 (corrected) 03/25/26

Using time only as a public health control, food was not served or discarded within 4 hours from when the food was removed from temperature control. [Corrected][Repeat]

Safe Bite Analysis Salmonella C. perfringens B. cereus S. aureus Listeria

When food spends too long in the temperature 'danger zone' (41°F-135°F), bacteria can multiply to dangerous levels in hours. Some bacteria produce toxins during this time that survive reheating — the damage is done even if you cook it again.

Critical Repeat Corrected ~2.2× illness risk = 50 pts × 1.5 (repeat) × 0.5 (corrected) 03/25/26

Food contact surfaces and utensils are not clean to sight and touch. [CAN OPENER BLADE] [Corrected][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 Corrected ~4.0× illness risk = 70 pts × 0.5 (corrected) 03/25/26

An approved sanitizer is not being used during manual or mechanical warewashing. [Corrected]

Safe Bite Analysis Norovirus Salmonella Listeria E. coli

Cleaning removes visible dirt, but only sanitizing kills the invisible bacteria and viruses that cause food poisoning. Without sanitizer, surfaces that look clean can still spread Norovirus, Salmonella, and Listeria.

Critical Corrected ~1.7× illness risk = 40 pts × 0.5 (corrected) 03/25/26

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.

Non-Critical 0 pts 03/25/26

Walls/ceilings or attached equipment are not in good repair. [STAINED CEILING TILES]

Safe Bite Grade: C — Weighs on Current
Critical Corrected ~8.0× illness risk = 90 pts × 0.5 (corrected) 11/25/25

Using time only as a public health control, food was not marked or otherwise identified with the time within which it would be cooked , served , or discarded. [Corrected]

Safe Bite Analysis Salmonella C. perfringens B. cereus S. aureus Listeria

When food spends too long in the temperature 'danger zone' (41°F-135°F), bacteria can multiply to dangerous levels in hours. Some bacteria produce toxins during this time that survive reheating — the damage is done even if you cook it again.

Critical Corrected 10 pts × 0.5 (corrected) 11/25/25

Employee was eating in a food preparation or other area where food, utensils or other items requiring protection were stored. [Corrected]

Critical Corrected ~2.2× illness risk = 50 pts × 0.5 (corrected) 11/25/25

Food contact surfaces and utensils are not clean to sight and touch. [CAN OPENER BLADE] [Corrected]

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 0 pts 11/25/25

A covered waste can is not provided in the ladies toilet room.
