Score
Medium Risk NYC Grade: B

With just two inspections in the record, there isn't enough history to establish a clear pattern. The most recent visit was on Jul 8, 2025. Diners should read medium risk as a signal that some issues exist but aren't extreme.

The latest visit found four violations, down from five violations the time before.

The pattern that stands out is cold TCS food item held above 41 °F, which has been cited two times.

The city-wide average sits at 77, which Cafe One's 67 doesn't quite reach. Nothing in the record is alarming, but there's room to improve.
