Low Risk

Guys Pizza has a thin inspection record, with only two visits on file so far. On Sep 23, 2011, the health department conducted the most recent visit. Low risk indicates the latest report didn't flag anything that would worry the average customer. Guys Pizza's record stops at Sep 23, 2011, more than two years back, so current conditions may differ.

That puts the facility ahead of the local pack: the average Chicago restaurant scores 81. The record reflects steady performance over time.
