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 04/21/2026. Previous inspection history affects the grade. How we calculate.

Grade History
Current Safe Bite Grade: F
04/21/2026 Routine
3 critical -145 points F
10/13/2025 Routine
1 critical -105 points C → F
03/20/2025 Routine
0 critical -50 points C
Inspection — 04/21/2026
Safe Bite Grade: F
Critical Corrected ~1.3× illness risk = 30 pts × 0.5 (corrected) 04/21/26

Equipment and/or utensils are not constructed of approved materials. [Corrected]

Safe Bite Analysis Chemical leaching Pathogen harborage

Equipment made from unapproved materials may be impossible to properly clean (harboring bacteria in cracks and pores) or may leach chemicals into food during cooking or storage.

Critical Corrected ~2.2× illness risk = 50 pts × 0.5 (corrected) 04/21/26

Food contact surfaces and utensils are not clean to sight and touch. [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.

Critical Corrected ~3.0× illness risk = 60 pts × 0.5 (corrected) 04/21/26

The 3 compartment sink is not used in proper sequence to wash| rinse and sanitize. [Corrected]

Safe Bite Analysis Norovirus Salmonella Listeria E. coli

The 3-compartment sink process (wash, rinse, sanitize) is designed to eliminate bacteria from utensils and equipment. Skipping steps or doing them out of order means utensils may look clean but still carry infectious organisms.

Non-Critical 0 pts 04/21/26

Floors are not clean.

Non-Critical Repeat 0 pts 04/21/26

Food is not stored in a clean| covered container. [Repeat]

Non-Critical Repeat 0 pts 04/21/26

Non-food contact surfaces are not constructed of a corrosion-resistant| non -absorbent| smooth material [Repeat]

Non-Critical Repeat ~2.2× illness risk = 50 pts × 1.5 (repeat) 04/21/26

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 Corrected 0 pts 04/21/26

In use food utensils are not stored with the handles above the top of the food. [Corrected]

Non-Critical Corrected 0 pts 04/21/26

In use food utensils are not stored on a clean dry surface. [Corrected]

Inspection — 10/13/2025
Safe Bite Grade: D — Weighs on Current
Critical Corrected ~3.0× illness risk = 60 pts × 0.5 (corrected) 10/13/25

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

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 10/13/25

Food is not stored six (6) inches off the floor. [Repeat]

Non-Critical Repeat 0 pts 10/13/25

Food is not stored in a clean, covered container. [Repeat]

Non-Critical 0 pts 10/13/25

Non-food contact equipment is not maintained in good repair.

Non-Critical 0 pts 10/13/25

Non-food contact surfaces are not constructed of a corrosion-resistant, non -absorbent, smooth material

Non-Critical Repeat ~2.2× illness risk = 50 pts × 1.5 (repeat) 10/13/25

Non-food contact surfaces are not cleaned at a frequency necessary to preclude accumulation of soil residues. Throughout [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 Corrected 0 pts 10/13/25

Clean equipment/utensils are not stored at least six (6) inches off the floor. [Corrected]

Inspection — 03/20/2025
Safe Bite Grade: C
Non-Critical Repeat 0 pts 03/20/25

Food is not stored in a clean, covered container. [Repeat]

Non-Critical Repeat 0 pts 03/20/25

Food is not stored six (6) inches off the floor. [Repeat]

Non-Critical ~2.2× illness risk = 50 pts 03/20/25

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.
