There aren't many inspections to draw from yet: just two so far. On Jan 8, 2025, the health department conducted the most recent visit. The medium risk tier sits in the middle: not spotless, but not alarming either.

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

Looking across the full record, “food contact surface not properly washed” is the recurring theme, flagged two times.

Among Manhattan restaurants, this is a fairly standard result. The full record sits in fairly typical territory for a working restaurant.
