Low Risk

White Castle #58 has been inspected 19 times since 2010. Inspectors last stopped by on Dec 2, 2024. When a facility lands in the low risk tier, it usually means nothing alarming showed up at the most recent visit.

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

When inspectors have written things up, “physical facilities installed, maintained & clean” has been the most frequent reason, cited seven times.
