The most recent inspection (August 2025 reinspection) found no violations, showing the restaurant corrected earlier issues like sanitizer concentration and food worker card documentation. While past inspections noted some real concerns (low sanitizer levels, a hot-holding temperature issue, and a broken backflow device), these were compliance/paperwork and equipment issues that were addressed, and the latest check came back clean.
