Score
Medium Risk NYC Grade: Pending

With just two inspections in the record, there isn't enough history to establish a clear pattern. The most recent visit was on Nov 20, 2024. A medium risk score generally means inspectors found things to fix, though most weren't urgent.

The picture has gotten worse over the last few visits, with the average climbing from around two violations to closer to four violations.

Looking across the full record, “non-food contact surface or equipment made of unacceptable material” is the recurring theme, flagged two times.

That's lower than the typical Manhattan restaurant, which scores around 77. On the whole, the file is mixed but not concerning.
