Low Risk

The health department has logged six inspections at Home Run Inn, the earliest from 2017. The latest inspection on file is from Apr 4, 2019. Low risk indicates the latest report didn't flag anything that would worry the average customer. The file hasn't been updated since Apr 4, 2019, so take the current picture with that in mind.

The trend has been favorable: violation counts have eased from around four violations to closer to two violations per visit over the last few inspections.

The most common issue across all inspections has been “food and non-food contact surfaces properly designed”, showing up four times.

That puts the facility ahead of the local pack: the average Chicago restaurant scores 81. There isn't much in the file that would give a customer pause.
