Low Risk NYC Grade: A

With just two inspections in the record, there isn't enough history to establish a clear pattern. On Oct 18, 2024, the health department conducted the most recent visit. A low risk tier reflects an inspection that turned up minimal issues.

Things are looking better lately, with recent visits averaging around two violations compared to roughly nine violations earlier on.

The most common issue across all inspections has been “non-food contact surface or equipment made of unacceptable material”, showing up two times.

That puts the facility ahead of the local pack: the average Bronx restaurant scores 77. There isn't much in the file that would give a customer pause.
