Score
Going back to 2010, Dear Sub has 16 inspections in the public record. The newest entry in the record is dated May 26, 2022. Low risk indicates the latest report didn't flag anything that would worry the average customer. Public records show no inspections at Dear Sub since May 26, 2022, so this file may not reflect current conditions.
Things have been moving in the right direction, with the rolling count dropping from around seven violations to closer to four violations per visit.
The pattern that stands out is “food and non-food contact surfaces properly designed”, which has been cited eight 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.
