Low Risk

There aren't many inspections to draw from yet: just two so far. Inspectors last stopped by on Jul 15, 2025. Low risk means the most recent visit produced few or no significant findings.

Things have been moving in the right direction, with the rolling count dropping from around four violations to closer to two violations per visit.

When inspectors have written things up, “personal cleanliness” has been the most frequent reason, cited two times.

Compared to other Macon restaurants (averaging 91), there's room to close the gap. Taken together, the history is a positive one.
