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 04/06/2026. Previous inspection history affects the grade. How we calculate.

Grade History
Current Safe Bite Grade: F
04/06/2026 Routine
11 critical -530 points D → F
11/24/2025 Routine
2 critical -80 points A → D
04/02/2025 Routine
0 critical 0 points A
Inspection — 04/06/2026
Safe Bite Grade: F
Critical Corrected ~2.2× illness risk = 50 pts × 0.5 (corrected) 04/06/26

Food contact surfaces and utensils are not clean to sight and touch. (Soda nozzles) [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 10 pts 04/06/26

Food prepared, packed, or held under conditions where it may have been contaminated.

Critical Repeat ~8.0× illness risk = 90 pts × 1.5 (repeat) 04/06/26

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 10 pts 04/06/26

Food to be held cold was not cooled from 70°F to 41°F or below within 4 hours following cooking or hot holding.

Critical ~8.0× illness risk = 90 pts 04/06/26

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.

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 10 pts 04/06/26

Cutting board, food preparation or other food contact surface was not washed, rinsed and sanitized following contact with raw animal food or raw vegetables and before contact with ready to eat foods.

Critical ~2.2× illness risk = 50 pts 04/06/26

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

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 ~2.2× illness risk = 50 pts 04/06/26

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

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 10 pts 04/06/26

Food-contact surfaces are not being sanitized before use.

Critical ~3.0× illness risk = 60 pts 04/06/26

Chlorine sanitizer concentration for warewashing is not between 50-100 p.p.m. at 75ºF.

Safe Bite Analysis Norovirus Salmonella E. coli (if too low) Chemical injury (if too high)

Sanitizer that's too weak won't kill bacteria and viruses. Sanitizer that's too strong can leave chemical residues on dishes and utensils that cause illness. Either way, the safety system has failed.

Critical ~6.0× illness risk = 80 pts 04/06/26

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.

Non-Critical 0 pts 04/06/26

Critical Corrected ~8.0× illness risk = 90 pts × 0.5 (corrected) 11/24/25

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

Safe Bite Analysis Listeria Salmonella B. cereus C. perfringens
