The Dock at Montrose Beach
Last inspected: Jul 2, 2025
90
Score
The Dock at Montrose Beach has been inspected 24 times since 2010. Inspectors last stopped by on Jul 2, 2025. Low risk indicates the latest report didn't flag anything that would worry the average customer.
Things are looking better lately, with recent visits averaging around three violations compared to roughly five violations earlier on.
When inspectors have written things up, “physical facilities installed, maintained & clean” has been the most frequent reason, cited 16 times.
That puts the facility ahead of the local pack: the average Chicago restaurant scores 81. There isn't much in the file that would give a customer pause.
