Medium Risk NYC Grade: A

Lenwich has been inspected three times since 2022. The latest inspection on file is from Sep 18, 2024. When a facility lands in medium risk territory, it usually means a mixed inspection result.

Recent visits have flagged additional issues, ticking from two violations up to four.

When inspectors have written things up, non-food contact surface or equipment made of unacceptable material has been the most frequent reason, cited two times.

That falls roughly in the middle of the pack for Manhattan restaurants. On the whole, the file is mixed but not concerning.
