Score
The health department has logged eight inspections at Little Caesars, the earliest from 2022. On Jul 22, 2025, the health department conducted the most recent visit. Medium risk typically reflects a handful of issues that inspectors wrote up but didn't deem critical.
Things have been moving in the right direction, with the rolling count dropping from around 10 violations to closer to seven violations per visit.
“No proof provided that food employees are informed” comes up most often, recorded three times in the inspection record.
The city-wide average sits at 80, which Little Caesars' 58 doesn't quite reach. The record is unremarkable in either direction.
