Low Risk NYC Grade: A

There aren't many inspections to draw from yet: just two so far. On Mar 18, 2026, the health department conducted the most recent visit. When a facility lands in the low risk tier, it usually means nothing alarming showed up at the most recent visit.

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

When inspectors have written things up, “no hand washing facility in or adjacent to toilet room” has been the most frequent reason, cited two times.

Among Bronx restaurants, this is a fairly standard result. There isn't much in the file that would give a customer pause.
