Low Risk

With just two inspections in the record, there isn't enough history to establish a clear pattern. On Dec 12, 2012, the health department conducted the most recent visit. Diners can read the low risk label as a sign that recent inspections have gone well. The file hasn't been updated since Dec 12, 2012, so take the current picture with that in mind.

Recent visits have flagged more than earlier ones: around three violations per visit lately, up from roughly one violation before.

The most common issue across all inspections has been “food and non-food contact equipment utensils clean”, showing up two times.

Restaurants in Chicago average 81, so Safari Cup Coffee is doing better than most peers. Nothing in the record is alarming, but there's room to improve.
