Medium Risk NYC Grade: B

Irestaurant has been inspected five times since 2022. The newest entry in the record is dated Dec 20, 2024. A medium risk rating points to a few notable findings at the last inspection, though nothing severe.

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

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

Restaurants in Brooklyn average 77, so Irestaurant trails the local norm. The record is unremarkable in either direction.
