Lucky Vito[Pizzeria Lo Spizzco] is currently listed as closed by Chicago Department of Public Health, as of its inspection on October 27, 2011. A closure means inspectors found conditions serious enough to stop service — it is not the same as a restaurant choosing to shut down, and the listing can change once the problems are fixed and re-inspected.

When was Lucky Vito[Pizzeria Lo Spizzco] last inspected?
Lucky Vito[Pizzeria Lo Spizzco] has 3 inspections on record going back to March 9, 2010.
Chicago does not use letter grades. Every inspection ends in one of three official results: Pass, Pass with Conditions, or Fail. Pass with Conditions means violations were found but corrected on the spot or under a deadline — the restaurant is open, with homework. A Fail means serious violations went uncorrected, and it usually brings a re-inspection within days. Chicago also flags “priority” violations, the ones most likely to actually make someone sick. Cooked reads Pass as clean, Pass with Conditions as mid, and Fail as cooked, and shows the itemized violations behind each result.
