Medium Risk

Going back to 2013, Beaumont has 10 inspections in the public record. The most recent visit was on Aug 4, 2022. Diners should read medium risk as a signal that some issues exist but aren't extreme. Note that Beaumont's inspection history hasn't been updated since Aug 4, 2022; current conditions may have shifted from what the file shows.

There hasn't been much movement either way: counts have stayed near six violations per visit across recent inspections.

“Food and non-food contact equipment utensils clean” accounts for the largest share of issues, appearing five times across the record.

Compared to other Chicago restaurants (averaging 81), there's room to close the gap. Nothing in the record is alarming, but there's room to improve.
