Inspection Records
Each inspection report is a "snapshot" of a restaurant's conditions on the day and time of that inspection. On any given day, an establishment may have more or fewer violations than posted here. Any individual inspection may not be representative of the overall, long-term condition of the establishment.
If you encounter a problem or have a concern while visiting a retail food establishment or food service operation, tell the manager and ask that it be corrected.
If you are not satisfied with the response, or if you have a suspected food borne illness to report, contact our office immediately by telephone or online by using https://cagis.hamilton-co.org/311// (Request Service, address, type of service, select "Food Operations"). All complaints will be investigated.
