How do I look up a restaurant's health inspection score in Avondale?

Search any Avondale restaurant or bar by name in the search box on this page, or browse the full list below. Each listing opens a page showing that restaurant's most recent City of Chicago inspection result, the specific violations inspectors cited, and its full inspection history. All 114 Avondale establishments on this page come from the City of Chicago's public Food Inspections dataset, which GutCheck rebuilds daily.

Which restaurants in Avondale failed their health inspection?

No Avondale restaurants currently hold a Fail on their most recent City of Chicago inspection. 17 passed with conditions, meaning inspectors cited violations that had to be corrected but weren't severe enough to halt operation. This reflects current status and changes as new inspections are published.

What does "Pass with Conditions" mean on a Chicago health inspection?

It means the restaurant passed, but inspectors cited violations that needed correcting — often on the spot, during the inspection itself. It is not a failure and does not stop a restaurant from operating. In Avondale, 17 of 114 establishments currently carry this result, compared with 97 holding a clean Pass. Because roughly one in five Chicago establishments carries it at any given time, treating it as equivalent to a Fail would be misleading.

How often does Chicago inspect restaurants in Avondale, and are the results public?

The Chicago Department of Public Health inspects food establishments on a risk-based schedule — higher-risk operations more frequently — plus complaint-driven and re-inspection visits, so the gap between inspections varies by restaurant rather than following a fixed calendar. Every result is public record, published through the city's open-data portal (dataset 4ijn-s7e5). GutCheck reads that same feed directly; it's an independent service and isn't affiliated with the City of Chicago.
