Score
Burrito Grande appears in inspection records 23 times, starting in 2010. The latest inspection on file is from Jun 6, 2025. A low risk rating suggests inspectors haven't found much to be concerned about lately.
Things have been moving in the right direction, with the rolling count dropping from around 12 violations to closer to two violations per visit.
The pattern that stands out is “food and non-food contact surfaces properly designed”, which has been cited 12 times.
The city-wide average for Chicago sits at 81, putting Burrito Grande on the better side of that line. There isn't much in the file that would give a customer pause.
