The most recent inspection on October 8, 2025, identified a deficiency related to food items not being held at the required cold holding temperature in the main kitchen. Earlier inspections showed a mix of results, with prior reports mostly free of deficiencies except for the October 27, 2023, survey, which cited several food service issues including hand hygiene, food storage, and equipment cleanliness. Complaint investigations were generally unsubstantiated, with no enforcement actions or fines listed in the available reports.
