Low Risk

With just two inspections in the record, there isn't enough history to establish a clear pattern. The most recent visit was on Jul 26, 2011. Low risk indicates the latest report didn't flag anything that would worry the average customer. The file hasn't been updated since Jul 26, 2011, so take the current picture with that in mind.

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

Restaurants in Chicago average 81, so Rokito's is doing better than most peers. The full picture is one of consistent compliance.
