Low Risk

Inspectors have visited Figueroa Nutrition three times, with records going back to 2020. On Oct 18, 2021, the health department conducted the most recent visit. Diners can read the low risk label as a sign that recent inspections have gone well. Public records show no inspections at Figueroa Nutrition since Oct 18, 2021, so this file may not reflect current conditions.

Things have been moving in the right direction, with the rolling count dropping from around six violations to closer to three violations per visit.

The pattern that stands out is “management, food employee and conditional employee”, which has been cited two times.

That falls roughly in the middle of the pack for Chicago restaurants. There isn't much in the file that would give a customer pause.
