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 10/01/2026. Previous inspection history affects the grade. How we calculate.

Grade History

Critical Repeat ~2.2× illness risk = 50 pts × 1.5 (repeat) 10/01/26

Food contact surfaces and utensils are not clean to sight and touch. [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 ~4.0× illness risk = 70 pts × 1.5 (repeat) 10/01/26

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

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 Repeat ~12.0× illness risk = 100 pts × 1.5 (repeat) 10/01/26

Sewage is not disposed of through an approved sewerage system/facility. [Repeat]

Safe Bite Analysis Norovirus Hepatitis A Shigella Salmonella STEC Parasites

Sewage is human and animal waste — it contains virtually every type of foodborne pathogen. Sewage contamination in a restaurant is an imminent health hazard that can simultaneously expose patrons to Norovirus, Hepatitis A, Salmonella, and parasites.

Critical Repeat Corrected ~3.0× illness risk = 60 pts × 1.5 (repeat) × 0.5 (corrected) 10/01/26

There is a direct connection between the drainage system and a drain line originating from food handling equipment. [Corrected][Repeat]

Safe Bite Analysis Norovirus Hepatitis A Salmonella E. coli

Faulty drainage systems can cause sewage to back up into food preparation areas or create cross-connections between waste lines and clean water. A drainage failure in the wrong place can turn into a sewage contamination event.

Critical Repeat ~6.0× illness risk = 80 pts × 1.5 (repeat) 10/01/26

Rodents are present in the establishment. [Repeat]

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) 10/01/26

Sewage is not disposed of through an approved sewerage system/facility. [Repeat]

Safe Bite Analysis Norovirus Hepatitis A Shigella Salmonella STEC Parasites

Sewage is human and animal waste — it contains virtually every type of foodborne pathogen. Sewage contamination in a restaurant is an imminent health hazard that can simultaneously expose patrons to Norovirus, Hepatitis A, Salmonella, and parasites.

Critical Repeat Corrected ~3.0× illness risk = 60 pts × 1.5 (repeat) × 0.5 (corrected) 10/01/26

There is a direct connection between the drainage system and a drain line originating from food handling equipment. [Corrected][Repeat]

Safe Bite Analysis Norovirus Hepatitis A Salmonella E. coli

Faulty drainage systems can cause sewage to back up into food preparation areas or create cross-connections between waste lines and clean water. A drainage failure in the wrong place can turn into a sewage contamination event.

Critical Corrected ~3.0× illness risk = 60 pts × 0.5 (corrected) 09/17/26

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.
