The most recent inspection found a blocked handwash sink and sanitizer solutions at 0 ppm, but staff fixed both issues immediately during the inspector's visit, and there were no signs of pest activity, improper holding temperatures, or contaminated food. These were quickly corrected operational lapses rather than ongoing systemic risks, so it should be fine to eat here.
