Medium Risk

Nacho Mammas appears in inspection records three times, starting in 2023. Inspectors last stopped by on Mar 4, 2026. Medium risk typically reflects a handful of issues that inspectors wrote up but didn't deem critical.

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

When inspectors have written things up, “warewashing facilities” has been the most frequent reason, cited two times.
