Low Risk

Kurimu has been inspected three times since 2021. On Oct 24, 2025, the health department conducted the most recent visit. Diners can read the low risk label as a sign that recent inspections have gone well.

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

The pattern that stands out is “physical facilities installed, maintained & clean”, which has been cited two times.

That falls roughly in the middle of the pack for Chicago restaurants. There isn't much in the file that would give a customer pause.
