- 14 violations cited (Public Health Hazard 3, Critical 7, General 4)
A violation in this file means an inspector cited a Health Code rule at the time of the visit. The city lists violations when they are cited, before any hearing. Violations that can carry a fine go to the NYC Office of Administrative Trials and Hearings (OATH), which can uphold or dismiss them. The status under each violation shows whether the city marked it corrected. Read the official record for details.
Below is every inspection in the file for this program, newest first, with the type and result as NYC Health published them. NYC Health sorts violations into three categories: public health hazard, critical and general. Results such as "Fines pending" and each violation's status (open or corrected) are as of the file's last update in April 2023 and may have changed since. A compliance inspection checks violations cited earlier, so its result can mention corrected violations even when no new ones are listed. If the file lists the same violation more than once for one inspection, we show and count it once and note how many times it appears.
