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 07/07/2026. Previous inspection history affects the grade. How we calculate.
Food stored for cold-holding and service was not held at a temperature of 41 °F or below. [Repeat]
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.
Employee was drinking in a food preparation or other area where food equipment| utensils or other items requiring protection were stored. [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.
Sanitizer solution is not being used in accordance with manufacturer's instructions. [Repeat]
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.
A sanitizer test kit is not provided to accurately measure the concentration in mg/L or parts per million of sanitizing solution provided. [Repeat]
Employees' personal care items are stored where food equipment| utensils| linens| single service items or single use items may be contaminated. [Repeat]
Food stored for cold-holding and service was not held at a temperature of 41 °F or below. [Repeat]
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.
Employee was eating in a food preparation or other area where food| utensils or other items requiring protection were stored. [Repeat]
Raw animal food is not separated from ready to eat food| or is placed| stored or displayed above ready to eat food.
Raw meat, poultry, and seafood carry dangerous bacteria. When they aren't separated from other foods, bacteria can transfer to items that will be eaten without further cooking.
Food contact surfaces and utensils are not clean to sight and touch.
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.
Sanitizer solution is not being used in accordance with manufacturer's instructions.
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.
Outdoor premises used for garbage storage is not maintained clean and free of litter.
Floors are not clean.
Bulk containers are not properly labeled.
An accurate product temperature-measuring device is not provided.
Non-food contact surfaces of equipment have an accumulation of dust| dirt| food residue and other debris.
A sanitizer test kit is not provided to accurately measure the concentration in mg/L or parts per million of sanitizing solution provided.
Employees' personal care items are stored where food equipment| utensils| linens| single service items or single use items may be contaminated.
Food stored for cold-holding and service was not held at a temperature of 41 °F or below. [Corrected]
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.
Employee was eating in a food preparation or other area where food, utensils or other items requiring protection were stored. [Corrected]
Food is stored where it is exposed to splash, dust, or other contamination [Repeat]
Food scoop is constructed without a handle. [Repeat]
Food for hot holding and service was held at a temperature of less than 135°F. [Corrected]
Food held below 135°F allows dangerous bacteria to multiply and produce toxins that can't be destroyed by reheating. Clostridium perfringens alone causes nearly 1 million illnesses per year in the US.
Bulk containers are not properly labeled.
Food is not stored six (6) inches off the floor. [Repeat]
Food scoop is constructed without a handle.
Persons unnecessary to the food establishment are present in the food preparation or ware washing area. [Corrected]
The hand wash lavatory is used for purpose other than hand washing. [Corrected][Repeat]
Imported crawfish and shrimp are not identified as specified by law. [Repeat]
Louisiana requires that crawfish and shrimp sold in restaurants come from approved, traceable sources. Imported product without proper documentation can't be verified as safe — it may have been processed under unknown safety standards.
Bulk containers are not properly labeled. [Repeat]
