Score
Low Risk

Kilwins Ice Cream and Chocolate appears in inspection records three times, starting in 2020. On Sep 8, 2022, the health department conducted the most recent visit. When a facility lands in the low risk tier, it usually means nothing alarming showed up at the most recent visit. Note that Kilwins Ice Cream and Chocolate's inspection history hasn't been updated since Sep 8, 2022; current conditions may have shifted from what the file shows.

There hasn't been much movement either way: counts have stayed near four violations per visit across recent inspections.

The pattern that stands out is “management, food employee and conditional employee”, which has been cited two times.

That's lower than the typical Chicago restaurant, which scores around 81. The file should reassure diners considering a visit.
