High Risk NYC Grade: Pending

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 Feb 19, 2026. A high risk rating points to multiple serious findings at the most recent inspection.

Recent inspections have turned up more issues than earlier ones, averaging around nine violations lately compared to roughly two violations before.

“Non-food contact surface or equipment made of unacceptable material” accounts for the largest share of issues, appearing two times across the record.

The city-wide average sits at 77, which Terra's 35 doesn't quite reach. The pattern in the record is worth a careful look.
