Low Risk

The health department has logged six inspections at Wings Around the World, the earliest from 2010. On Aug 9, 2012, 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. The file hasn't been updated since Aug 9, 2012, so take the current picture with that in mind.

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

When inspectors have written things up, “walls, ceilings, attached equipment constructed per code” has been the most frequent reason, cited four times.

Compared to the broader Chicago restaurant scene, where the average is 81, this is a stronger showing. There isn't much in the file that would give a customer pause.
