Score
Medium Risk

The health department has logged 27 inspections at Jansons Drive in, the earliest from 2010. On Feb 19, 2026, the health department conducted the most recent visit. Medium risk typically reflects a handful of issues that inspectors wrote up but didn't deem critical.

Recent visits have produced comparable findings, with counts hovering near five violations per visit.

When inspectors have written things up, “physical facilities installed, maintained & clean” has been the most frequent reason, cited 18 times.

That's lower than the typical Chicago restaurant, which scores around 81. Taken together, the history looks like that of a busy facility working through the usual inspection cycle.
