Who publishes this, and what they sell. This guide is published by Viking Net, which sells technology services to restaurants — websites, apps, point-of-sale systems and card processing — including to businesses rated on this site. Every rating here is computed by a formula published in full from public records: health inspections, city 311 complaints, published awards, and the state sales-tax permit date. No business can pay to change its score, raise its rank, or have a low score removed, and none has ever been asked to. If that ever changes, this paragraph comes down first.
Latest health inspection
100/100 on Apr 30, 2026 (98 days ago)
Inspections start at 100 and lose points for each violation found. 69 or below is a failing inspection. A score describes one visit on one day — Metro Health says so itself — not the condition of the business today.

An outer door, window or gap was not sealed against pests

Food Code 6-202.15(D) — Outer Openings, Protected · inspection item 34

Ready-to-eat food was not date-marked
Once opened or made in house, refrigerated ready-to-eat food gets a maximum of seven days. With no date on the container, nobody in the kitchen knows which day that is.
“Ensure that all food items stored longer that 24 hours are labeled with a 'use by' date that is 7 days from date of preparation.”Inspector’s note · SA Metro Health
Food Code 3-501.17(A) — Ready-to-Eat, Time/Temperature Control for Safety Food, Date Marking · inspection item 28
Something in the building was broken and not repaired
Broken tile, damaged wall, failing cooler seal. Damaged surfaces cannot be cleaned and they collect what everything else sheds.
“open and unpainted wood in floor molding inn dining room bathroom.”Inspector’s note · SA Metro Health
Food Code 6-501.11 — Repairing · inspection item 45
No person in charge was present or identified
Someone on every shift has to be accountable for food safety. With nobody in that role, nothing else in the code gets enforced.

Food Code 2-101.11 — Assignment

A fridge, freezer or hot box had no working thermometer

“Temperature reading device in reach in cooler not easily readable or located in the warmest part of unit.”Inspector’s note · SA Metro Health
Food Code 4-204.112(A) — Temperature Measuring Devices · inspection item 29
Surfaces were not sanitized after cleaning
Cleaning removes the visible soil. Sanitizing kills what is left. Cleaning alone is half the job.

Food Code 4-702.11 — Before Use After Cleaning · inspection item 10

What these numbers do and do not mean
An inspection score describes one visit on one day. It is what one inspector recorded on one date at one address — Metro Health says so itself. It is not a standing condition, not a grade for the food, and not a prediction about your lunch. A kitchen that scored 88 in March may be spotless today, and one that scored 100 may not be.
A 311 complaint is a phone call, not a finding. The city records that a member of the public called. It is not a citation, not an investigation result, and not evidence that anything was wrong. The city files it against an address, so where two food businesses share one, neither the record nor we can tell them apart. We publish the count with its denominator and let you weigh it.
Awards are reported, not endorsed. Every recognition on this site carries its publisher, its year and a link to the page we read it on. We did not judge those contests and we do not vouch for them; where a publisher named a business rather than an address, the page says so.
Absence of data is never rendered as a finding. No inspection on record means no Bird Score — never a zero, never quietly ranked last. No award found means we searched 172 recognitions from 13 publishers and found none, which is a statement about press coverage and not about cooking.
If something here is wrong, we will fix it. Every figure links to the record it came from. Email us with the correction and we will check it against the source and correct it within 48 hours, whether or not you are a customer. How to request a correction.
