11
Score
Across the available record, Piola has 11 inspections on file, the first dated 2022. Inspectors last stopped by on Mar 9, 2026. High risk usually means inspectors flagged either critical violations or a stack of smaller ones.
There hasn't been much movement either way: counts have stayed near 15 violations per visit across recent inspections.
The pattern that stands out is “unsealed concrete floor in food preparation”, which has been cited six times.
That's lower than the typical Pinecrest restaurant, which scores around 55. Taken together, the history suggests a facility that has struggled with consistency.
