Medium Risk NYC Grade: A

With just two inspections in the record, there isn't enough history to establish a clear pattern. On Jul 17, 2025, the health department conducted the most recent visit. Diners should read medium risk as a signal that some issues exist but aren't extreme.

There hasn't been much movement either way: counts have stayed near four violations per visit across recent inspections.

Looking across the full record, “non-food contact surface or equipment made of unacceptable material” is the recurring theme, flagged two times.

That's lower than the typical Bronx restaurant, which scores around 77. The inspection history reads as standard for a restaurant of this size.
