Score
Medium Risk

Across the available record, Sukari's has three inspections on file, the first dated 2021. The newest entry in the record is dated Feb 23, 2022. A medium risk rating points to a few notable findings at the last inspection, though nothing severe. The file hasn't been updated since Feb 23, 2022, so take the current picture with that in mind.

The trend has not been favorable: recent inspections average around six violations each, up from closer to three violations before.

Looking across the full record, “sewage & waste water properly disposed” is the recurring theme, flagged two times.

That's lower than the typical Chicago restaurant, which scores around 81. On the whole, the file is mixed but not concerning.
