A follow-up to confirm license-inspection violations were fixed.

Refrigeration units had dried food debris inside; equipment stored outdoors created pest risks.

Key Findings

  • Internal surfaces of first-floor refrigeration units contained dried food debris and required cleaning and sanitization.
  • Cooling units, freezers, beer kegs, and furniture stored on rear porch and backyard created pest harborage risks and clutter.

Key findings are derived directly from the inspector's notes from the Chicago Department of Public Health. See the full violation notes below.
