Medium Risk

There aren't many inspections to draw from yet: just two so far. The most recent report on file is from Aug 15, 2025. Diners should read medium risk as a signal that some issues exist but aren't extreme.

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

The most common issue across all inspections has been “certification by accredited program”, showing up two times.

Compared to the broader Philadelphia restaurant scene, this is about average. On the whole, the file is mixed but not concerning.
