Medium Risk

The health department has logged eight inspections at Momi Market, the earliest from 2022. Momi Market was last inspected on Jan 15, 2026. Medium risk typically reflects a handful of issues that inspectors wrote up but didn't deem critical.

Looking across the full record, “no written procedures available for use” is the recurring theme, flagged four times.
