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 04/14/2026. Previous inspection history affects the grade. How we calculate.
A current state food safety certificate is not held by the owner or a designated employee of the establishment. [Repeat]
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.
Working containers of chemicals are not labeled. [Corrected]
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.
Hot water is not provided to all fixtures| equipment| and nonfood equipment as required.
Without hot water, staff can't effectively wash their hands or clean equipment. Cold water doesn't dissolve grease or activate soap as effectively, reducing the ability to remove pathogens from hands and surfaces.
Soiled linens are not kept in clean | non-absorbent receptacles or clean washable laundry bags. [Corrected]
Employee did not wash hands and exposed portions of arms at appropriate time. [Corrected][Repeat]
Unwashed hands are the #1 way restaurant workers spread Norovirus — which causes half of all food poisoning outbreaks. An infected worker can carry billions of virus particles; it only takes a few to make you sick.
Employee was drinking in a food preparation or other area where food equipment, utensils or other items requiring protection were stored. [Corrected][Repeat]
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.

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.
Moist cloths used for wiping spills on food contact surfaces are not stored in approved chemical sanitizer between uses. [Corrected][Repeat]
Outside receptacles for garbage, etc. did not have tight fitting lids, doors, or covers. - Plug [Repeat]
Ready-to-eat potentially hazardous food prepared on premises, and held under refrigeration, was not disposed of after 7 days. [Corrected]

Raw animal foods with different cooking temperature requirements are not separated to prevent cross contamination during storage, preparation, or display.
Cross contamination transfers dangerous bacteria from raw meat, dirty surfaces, or contaminated items to food that's ready to eat. Since that food won't be cooked again, any bacteria transferred will be consumed.
Food contact surfaces and utensils are not clean to sight and touch. - Can opener
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.
The 3 compartment sink is not used in proper sequence to wash, rinse and sanitize.
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.
An approved sanitizer is not being used during manual or mechanical warewashing.
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.
Working containers of chemicals are not labeled.
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.
Ready to eat, potentially hazardous food prepared on premises and held for more than 24 hours is not date marked.
Without proper date marking, ready-to-eat food can be kept too long under refrigeration. Listeria — which kills about 1 in 5 people it seriously infects — grows slowly even in the fridge and reaches dangerous levels after 7 days.
Floors are not clean. - Walk-in cooler
Moist cloths used for wiping spills on food contact surfaces are not stored in approved chemical sanitizer between uses.
Bulk containers are not properly labeled.
Food is not stored six (6) inches off the floor.
Ice dispensing utensils were not stored in a clean protected location. [Corrected]
A sanitizer test kit is not provided to accurately measure the concentration in mg/L or parts per million of sanitizing solution provided.
In use food utensils are not stored with the handles above the top of the food. [Corrected]
Employees’ personal care items are stored where food equipment, utensils, linens, single service items or single use items may be contaminated.
Hand wash lavatory is not accessible
Soap and/or paper towels are not provided for use at the hand wash lavatory.
The hand wash lavatory is used for purpose other than hand washing.
Outside receptacles for garbage, etc. did not have tight fitting lids, doors, or covers. - Plug
Outside waste receptacles were not kept closed.
Food stored for cold-holding and service was not held at a temperature of 41 °F or below.
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.

The air gap between the water supply inlet and the flood rim of the plumbing fixture or equipment is not at least twice the diameter of the water supply inlet. - Ice Machine
Without proper air gaps, contaminated water can be sucked back into the clean water supply through backsiphonage. This means water used for food preparation, ice, or drinking could become contaminated.
Lighting intensity in areas where employees are working with unpackaged potentially hazardous food, or knives, slicers, grinders, etc. is not at least 50 foot candles.
Ventilation hood systems are not provided in sufficient number/capacity.
