Score
The health department has logged 11 inspections at D'cuba Restaurant, the earliest from 2011. The most recent visit was on Jan 29, 2019. A medium risk rating points to a few notable findings at the last inspection, though nothing severe. D'cuba Restaurant's record stops at Jan 29, 2019, more than two years back, so current conditions may differ.
Things have been moving the wrong way, with the rolling count rising from around three violations to closer to eight violations per visit.
The pattern that stands out is “food and non-food contact surfaces properly designed”, which has been cited seven times.
D'cuba Restaurant's latest score of 74 falls below the Chicago average of 81. Nothing in the record is alarming, but there's room to improve.
