Score
The health department has logged 29 inspections at Alegria's Seafood, the earliest from 2012. The latest inspection on file is from Jul 9, 2025. A medium risk score generally means inspectors found things to fix, though most weren't urgent.
Inspection results have stayed in a similar range over the last few visits, averaging around four violations each.
When inspectors have written things up, “approved thawing methods used” has been the most frequent reason, cited 12 times.
By comparison, the average Chicago facility scores 81, putting Alegria's Seafood on the weaker side. Taken together, the history looks like that of a busy facility working through the usual inspection cycle.
