Medium Risk NYC Grade: Pending

Hong Kong Gourmet appears in inspection records four times, starting in 2023. The most recent report on file is from Dec 6, 2025. The medium risk tier sits in the middle: not spotless, but not alarming either.

Recent visits have flagged more than earlier ones: around five violations per visit lately, up from roughly three violations before.

When inspectors have written things up, “food, supplies, or equipment not protected from potential source” has been the most frequent reason, cited two times.

Restaurants in Queens average 75, so Hong Kong Gourmet trails the local norm. On the whole, the file is mixed but not concerning.
