How many restaurants in Pilsen have failed a Chicago health inspection?
3 of the 264 restaurants GutCheck currently tracks in Pilsen hold a Fail on their most recent Chicago Department of Public Health inspection. This changes as new inspections come in — GutCheck rebuilds from the city's live feed on every deploy, so this reflects current status, not a historical snapshot.
Is GutCheck's Pilsen restaurant health data official?
Yes. Every record comes directly from the City of Chicago's public Food Inspections open-data feed (data.cityofchicago.org, dataset 4ijn-s7e5) — the same data the Chicago Department of Public Health publishes itself. GutCheck is an independent service and isn't affiliated with the City of Chicago.
