High Risk NYC Grade: Pending

With just two inspections in the record, there isn't enough history to establish a clear pattern. The most recent report on file is from Nov 21, 2025. A high risk tier suggests the facility had a rough recent inspection, with multiple violations on record.

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

Dishwashing and ware washing accounts for the largest share of issues, appearing two times across the record.

That's lower than the typical Manhattan restaurant, which scores around 77. There are enough flags in the record to merit a second thought.
