Establishment did not report seating change that affects the license fee, Clean Indoor Air Act, sewage system approval or other related requirements.
This record follows the licence, not the owner. Restaurants change hands and the licence history normally does not, so an older entry may describe people who no longer run the place. Every inspection above links to the state's own report. Something wrong? Tell us.
