Score
Holiday Club has been inspected five times since 2010. Holiday Club was last inspected on Nov 20, 2014. Low risk indicates the latest report didn't flag anything that would worry the average customer. The file hasn't been updated since Nov 20, 2014, so take the current picture with that in mind.
There hasn't been much movement either way: counts have stayed near five violations per visit across recent inspections.
“Walls, ceilings, attached equipment constructed per code” comes up most often, recorded three times in the inspection record.
Compared to other Chicago restaurants (averaging 81), there's room to close the gap. The full picture is one of consistent compliance.
