Score
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 Aug 6, 2025. 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.

When inspectors have written things up, “food contact surface not properly washed” has been the most frequent reason, cited two times.

That's lower than the typical Brooklyn restaurant, which scores around 77. The full record sits in fairly typical territory for a working restaurant.
