Score
Going back to 2014, Barraco's Pizza has 23 inspections in the public record. Inspectors last stopped by on Mar 16, 2026. Low risk indicates the latest report didn't flag anything that would worry the average customer.
Things are looking better lately, with recent visits averaging around six violations compared to roughly nine violations earlier on.
When inspectors have written things up, “physical facilities installed, maintained & clean” has been the most frequent reason, cited 19 times.
Compared to the broader Chicago restaurant scene, this is about average. There isn't much in the file that would give a customer pause.
