Inspection records are published by the Chicago Department of Public Health. A failed inspection does not necessarily mean an establishment closed — most are re-inspected after correcting violations.

Maxwell Street Grill — questions

Did Maxwell Street Grill pass its last health inspection?
Maxwell Street Grill at 7901 S South Chicago Ave was inspected on Apr 29, 2026 by the Chicago Department of Public Health and the result was "Out of Business". Across 29 inspections on record it has failed 2 times.
What does "Risk 1 (High)" mean?
Chicago assigns every food establishment a risk category based on how much food handling it does. Risk 1 (High) covers full-service restaurants and is inspected most often; Risk 2 (Medium) and Risk 3 (Low) — such as places serving only pre-packaged food — are inspected less frequently.
Where does this inspection data come from?
The City of Chicago publishes every food-establishment inspection it performs, including the result and the full text of any violations cited. This page reads that dataset directly and updates as the city posts new inspections.
