The restaurant was ranked very bad for 'Structural Compliance' which includes; (including cleanliness, layout, condition of structure, lighting, ventilation, facilities etc.), and only received a bad for 'Food Hygiene & Safety' (including food handling practices and procedures, and temperature control) and the food safety team registered no confidence in the management.

The website states that a management that achieves good food hygiene performance, well understood by the workforce, should have achieved a good score in this area.

Scores on the Doors is a website that collates information on the food premises supplied by the Food Standards Agency and provided by local authorities.  Wandsworth Council inspects most of the 2,132 food premises in Wandsworth each year - the aim as stated on the council website is to 'to ensure that food sold to the public is safe to consume'.
