Safe Bite Grade C Poor 04/13/2026
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 04/13/2026. Previous inspection history affects the grade. How we calculate.

Grade History
Current Safe Bite Grade: C
04/13/2026 Routine
2 critical -30 points D → C
10/06/2025 Routine
2 critical -112 points A → D
04/14/2025 Routine
0 critical 0 points A
Inspection — 04/13/2026
Safe Bite Grade: B
Critical Corrected 10 pts × 0.5 (corrected) 04/13/26

Single use gloves were not discarded after interruptions in food operations. [Corrected]

Critical Corrected ~2.2× illness risk = 50 pts × 0.5 (corrected) 04/13/26

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.

Non-Critical 0 pts 04/13/26

Utensils/food-contact surfaces are not resistant to pitting, chipping, grazing, scratching scoring, distortion or decomposition.

Non-Critical 0 pts 04/13/26

Non-food contact surfaces of equipment have an accumulation of dust, dirt, food residue and other debris.

Non-Critical 0 pts 04/13/26

Equipment and utensils are not air-dried.

Non-Critical 0 pts 04/13/26

Soap and/or paper towels are not provided for use at the hand wash lavatory.

Safe Bite Grade: D — Weighs on Current
Critical Repeat Corrected ~8.0× illness risk = 90 pts × 1.5 (repeat) × 0.5 (corrected) 10/06/25

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. [Corrected][Repeat]

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 Repeat Corrected 20 pts × 1.5 (repeat) × 0.5 (corrected) 10/06/25

Unapproved chemicals are used in the food establishment. [Corrected][Repeat]

Non-Critical Repeat ~1.15× illness risk = 20 pts × 1.5 (repeat) 10/06/25

A current state food safety certificate is not conspicuously posted. [Repeat]

Safe Bite Analysis Management control failure (indirect)

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.

Non-Critical 0 pts 10/06/25

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

Inspection — 04/14/2025
Safe Bite Grade: A
Non-Critical 0 pts 04/14/25

Outdoor premises used for garbage storage is not maintained clean and free of litter.

Non-Critical 0 pts 04/14/25

Non-food contact surfaces of equipment have an accumulation of dust, dirt, food residue and other debris.
