High Risk NYC Grade: C

With just two inspections in the record, there isn't enough history to establish a clear pattern. The newest entry in the record is dated Feb 20, 2026. The high risk label is a heads-up that the most recent visit didn't go well.

There hasn't been much movement either way: results have stayed near five violations per visit.

The pattern that stands out is hot TCS food item not held at or above 140 °F, which has been cited two times.

Compared to other Brooklyn restaurants (averaging 77), there's room to close the gap. Taken together, the history suggests a facility that has struggled with consistency.
