High Risk

Going back to 2022, Juliette Falls has eight inspections in the public record. The newest entry in the record is dated Feb 23, 2026. High risk usually means inspectors flagged either critical violations or a stack of smaller ones.

Recent inspections have turned up more issues than earlier ones, averaging around six violations lately compared to roughly four violations before.

When inspectors have written things up, “food-contact surface soiled with food debris” has been the most frequent reason, cited two times.
