Low Risk

Going back to 2011, Tedino's has 19 inspections in the public record. On Oct 12, 2021, the health department conducted the most recent visit. When a facility lands in the low risk tier, it usually means nothing alarming showed up at the most recent visit. Public records show no inspections at Tedino's since Oct 12, 2021, so this file may not reflect current conditions.

The trend has been favorable: violation counts have eased from around 10 violations to closer to two violations per visit over the last few inspections.

Across the inspection history, “walls, ceilings, attached equipment constructed per code” is the issue that surfaces most often, recorded 10 times.

Compared to the broader Chicago restaurant scene, where the average is 81, this is a stronger showing. The record reflects steady performance over time.
