Chicago issues retail food license for Quericozon on West North Avenue
Rule Changes Chicago, IL localCity records show a failed inspection, a passing re-inspection, and a new license at 3420 W North Ave.
Overview
Chicago issued Quericozon a retail food establishment license for 3420 W North Ave on November 3, 2026. The same city records show the address failed a license inspection on October 14 and passed a re-inspection on October 27.
The license is one approval in a chain. It does not by itself show that the business has every permit it needs, or that it has opened or closed. What it does show is that the city's record now lists Quericozon as licensed for food preparation and dining with seating at that address.
Why it matters
Chicago's license record shows who may prepare and serve food at an address. It is one approval, not a finish line.
