Score
Dirksen Us Courthouse has been inspected 12 times since 2015. On Jan 20, 2026, the health department conducted the most recent visit. A low risk rating suggests inspectors haven't found much to be concerned about lately.
Things are looking better lately, with recent visits averaging around two violations compared to roughly five violations earlier on.
Looking across the full record, “insects, rodents, & animals not present” is the recurring theme, flagged five times.
Compared to the broader Chicago restaurant scene, where the average is 81, this is a stronger showing. There isn't much in the file that would give a customer pause.
