Low Risk

Izola White has only two inspections on file, a thin record to work from. Izola White was last inspected on Oct 15, 2010. Low risk means the most recent visit produced few or no significant findings. The file hasn't been updated since Oct 15, 2010, so take the current picture with that in mind.

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

When inspectors have written things up, “walls, ceilings, attached equipment constructed per code” has been the most frequent reason, cited two times.

Compared to the broader Chicago restaurant scene, where the average is 81, this is a stronger showing. Overall, the inspection record reads well.
