Score
Medium Risk NYC Grade: A

There aren't many inspections to draw from yet: just two so far. Inspectors last stopped by on Dec 27, 2024. A medium risk score generally means inspectors found things to fix, though most weren't urgent.

The trend has been favorable: violation counts have eased from around five violations to closer to three violations per visit over the last few inspections.

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

Compared to other Bronx restaurants (averaging 77), there's room to close the gap. On the whole, the file is mixed but not concerning.
