Medium Risk NYC Grade: Pending

With just two inspections in the record, there isn't enough history to establish a clear pattern. On Jan 20, 2026, the health department conducted the most recent visit. A medium risk score generally means inspectors found things to fix, though most weren't urgent.

Recent inspections have found fewer violations than earlier ones, averaging around three violations lately and about eight violations before that.

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