Score
Ameer Kabob appears in inspection records 23 times, starting in 2010. The most recent report on file is from Jan 29, 2021. Medium risk typically reflects a handful of issues that inspectors wrote up but didn't deem critical. Ameer Kabob's record stops at Jan 29, 2021, more than two years back, so current conditions may differ.
Recent inspections have turned up roughly the same number of issues each time, hovering near nine violations per visit.

Ameer Kabob's latest score of 74 falls below the Chicago average of 81. Taken together, the history looks like that of a busy facility working through the usual inspection cycle.
