Score
Pork Chop appears in inspection records three times, starting in 2019. The most recent visit was on Feb 13, 2020. When a facility lands in the low risk tier, it usually means nothing alarming showed up at the most recent visit. Pork Chop's record stops at Feb 13, 2020, more than two years back, so current conditions may differ.
Recent inspections have found fewer violations than earlier ones, averaging around two violations lately and about 11 violations before that.
The pattern that stands out is “management, food employee and conditional employee”, which has been cited three times.
Compared to the broader Chicago restaurant scene, where the average is 81, this is a stronger showing. Taken together, the history is a positive one.
