Food Safety Report: Mama's African Restaurant/chez Lisa Loboko, 6606 N Sheridan Rd, Chicago, Il, USA.

Chicago, 60626 Illinois, United States

Inspectors found significant food safety violations during the July 1, 2026 inspection. The restaurant had no hot running water at sinks throughout the premises because gas service had been turned off due to a suspected leak. Inspectors also found that a previous significant pest-related violation had not been corrected: rat droppings were still present under dining room booths, and additional droppings were found under bar counters.

Other violations included missing handwashing signs at bar hand sinks, unlabeled food in the walk-in cooler, and food containers and pots not stored in a protected manner. Inspectors also noted dirty floors and floor drains in the kitchen and bar areas, and the restaurant did not provide required food handler or allergen training certificates.
