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 06/30/2026. Previous inspection history affects the grade. How we calculate.

Inspection — 06/30/2026
Safe Bite Grade: F
Critical Corrected ~12.0× illness risk = 100 pts × 0.5 (corrected) 06/30/26

Food meets the definition of adulterated. CABABAGE RECEIVED DISCOLLORED-DISCARDED [Corrected]

Safe Bite Analysis Multiple pathogens Chemical toxins Foreign matter

Adulterated food is unsafe by definition — it may contain pathogens, toxins, foreign objects, or unapproved chemicals. Serving adulterated food is the most direct path to making someone seriously ill.

Critical Corrected ~8.0× illness risk = 90 pts × 0.5 (corrected) 06/30/26

Food for hot holding and service was held at a temperature of less than 135°F. TOO MANY FOODS STORED OUT AT ROOM TEMPERATURE [Corrected]

Safe Bite Analysis C. perfringens B. cereus S. aureus

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.

Critical Repeat ~8.0× illness risk = 90 pts × 1.5 (repeat) 06/30/26

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 Corrected 10 pts × 0.5 (corrected) 06/30/26

An approved cooling method was not used to meet temperature requirements during cooling. 1311 - Food to be held cold was not cooled from 135°F to 70°F within two hours of cooking or hot holding. 1311 - Food to be held cold was not cooled from 70°F to 41°F or below within 4 hours following cooking or hot holding. CORRECTED BY EDUCATION [Corrected]

Critical Repeat Corrected ~8.0× illness risk = 90 pts × 1.5 (repeat) × 0.5 (corrected) 06/30/26

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. [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 Corrected 10 pts × 0.5 (corrected) 06/30/26

Employee did not dispense ice for consumption with tongs| scoops or other ice self dispensing utensils. [Corrected]

Critical Corrected ~6.0× illness risk = 80 pts × 0.5 (corrected) 06/30/26

Employee did not wash hands and exposed portions of arms at appropriate time. [Corrected]

Safe Bite Analysis Norovirus Hepatitis A Shigella Salmonella STEC

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.

Critical Corrected 10 pts × 0.5 (corrected) 06/30/26

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. [Corrected]

Critical Corrected 10 pts × 0.5 (corrected) 06/30/26

Single use gloves were used for more than one purpose. [Corrected]

Critical ~2.2× illness risk = 50 pts 06/30/26

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

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 06/30/26

Warewashing equipment used as food contact surfaces are not cleaned as required. ALL THREE COMAPRTMENT SINKS

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 06/30/26

Food-contact surfaces are not being sanitized before use.

Critical Corrected 10 pts × 0.5 (corrected) 06/30/26

Food package was not in good condition exposing the food to adulteration or potential contamination. [Corrected]

Critical ~3.0× illness risk = 60 pts 06/30/26

The 3 compartment sink is not used in proper sequence to wash| rinse and sanitize.

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.

Critical ~4.0× illness risk = 70 pts 06/30/26

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

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 ~4.0× illness risk = 70 pts × 1.5 (repeat) 06/30/26

Ready to eat| potentially hazardous food prepared on premises and held for more than 24 hours is not date marked. [Repeat]

Safe Bite Analysis Listeria monocytogenes

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.

Inspection — 04/07/2026
Safe Bite Grade: F — Weighs on Current
Critical Corrected ~8.0× illness risk = 90 pts × 0.5 (corrected) 04/07/26

Food stored for cold-holding and service was not held at a temperature of 41 °F or below. Shell eggs at 71F, voluntarily discarded by staff [Corrected]

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 Repeat Corrected ~8.0× illness risk = 90 pts × 1.5 (repeat) × 0.5 (corrected) 04/07/26

Safe Bite Analysis Salmonella Campylobacter STEC Allergens

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.
