Inspection — 03/18/2026
Safe Bite Grade: F
Critical Corrected 10 pts × 0.5 (corrected) 03/18/26

Ready-to-eat potentially hazardous food prepared on premises, and held under refrigeration, was not disposed of after 7 days. [Corrected]

Critical ~6.0× illness risk = 80 pts 03/18/26

Raw animal foods with different cooking temperature requirements are not separated to prevent cross contamination during storage, preparation, or display.** chicken stored over beef

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.

Critical ~2.2× illness risk = 50 pts 03/18/26

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 ~4.0× illness risk = 70 pts 03/18/26

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

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.

Critical ~2.2× illness risk = 50 pts 03/18/26

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

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 Repeat Corrected ~8.0× illness risk = 90 pts × 1.5 (repeat) × 0.5 (corrected) 03/18/26

Food stored for cold-holding and service was not held at a temperature of 41 °F or below.*** eggs being kept out not in use [Corrected][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 ~8.0× illness risk = 90 pts 03/18/26

Food stored for cold-holding and service was not held at a temperature of 41 °F or below.** near egg area

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 ~3.0× illness risk = 60 pts 03/18/26

Chemicals are stored with/above food, equipment, utensils, linens, single-service or single use articles.

Safe Bite Analysis Chemical toxins (bleach, degreasers, pesticides)

Cleaning chemicals, pesticides, and degreasers stored near food or food-contact surfaces can spill, leak, or produce fumes that contaminate food. Chemical poisoning from contaminated food can cause severe burns, organ damage, and death.

Critical ~8.0× illness risk = 90 pts 03/18/26

Food for hot holding and service was held at a temperature of less than 135°F.

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.
