County avg (restaurant): 10 to 14

Jake's Bar & Grill currently holds a D-minus grade and scores lower than 82 percent of comparable restaurants, placing it well below the median for its category. The facility shows a sharp and accelerating decline, beginning with minor cross-contamination concerns in February 2024 before cold holding temperature failures emerged in August 2024 and recurred a year later. In February 2026, violations expanded dramatically to include unsafe food handling, inadequate hand washing facilities, and missing worker certifications; by October 2026, the violations intensified further across food safety fundamentals (cold holding, unsafe food disposition, toxic substance storage, and worker knowledge), triggering a mandatory follow-up inspection that has not yet been passed. The trajectory indicates deteriorating operational control rather than isolated incidents.
