Medium Risk NYC Grade: A

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 Oct 27, 2022. Diners should read medium risk as a signal that some issues exist but aren't extreme. The file hasn't been updated since Oct 27, 2022, so take the current picture with that in mind.

Things have moved in the wrong direction: violation counts went from one to four.

Food contact surface not properly washed comes up most often, recorded one time in the inspection record.

Among Queens restaurants, this is a fairly standard result. The record is unremarkable in either direction.
