High Risk

Public records show eight inspections at Smoki stretching back to 2022. Smoki was last inspected on Oct 22, 2025. Diners may want to take note: high risk reflects issues that a health inspector considered important.

The pattern that stands out is “no probe thermometer provided to measure temperature”, which has been cited three times.
