Yes, eat hereJudged 7/10/2026

The most recent inspection (June 2026) found no violations at all, and prior issues—like a blocked handwash sink, weak sanitizer, and a cold-holding temperature lapse—were promptly corrected and haven't recurred. There's no ongoing pattern of serious food-safety risk, so it should be safe to eat here.
