Low Risk

The health department has logged four inspections at Hong Kong Restaurant, the earliest from 2012. The most recent visit was on Jun 12, 2013. A low risk rating suggests inspectors haven't found much to be concerned about lately. Note that Hong Kong Restaurant's inspection history hasn't been updated since Jun 12, 2013; current conditions may have shifted from what the file shows.

The trend has been favorable: violation counts have eased from around four violations to closer to zero violations per visit over the last few inspections.

The pattern that stands out is “food and non-food contact surfaces properly designed”, which has been cited two times.
