High Risk

Across the available record, Satkar Indian Cuisine has nine inspections on file, the first dated 2022. The newest entry in the record is dated Jan 23, 2026. High risk usually means inspectors flagged either critical violations or a stack of smaller ones.

Violation counts have ticked up lately, averaging around 22 violations per visit versus roughly 12 violations earlier in the record.

The most common issue across all inspections has been “establishment has no written procedures for employees”, showing up six times.

The city-wide average sits at 79, which Satkar Indian Cuisine's 9 doesn't quite reach. There are enough flags in the record to merit a second thought.
