Low Risk NYC Grade: A

Going back to 2024, Pokeworks has three inspections in the public record. Pokeworks was last inspected on Jan 21, 2026. A low risk rating suggests inspectors haven't found much to be concerned about lately.

The trend has been favorable: violation counts have eased from around four violations to closer to one violation per visit over the last few inspections.

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

That puts the facility ahead of the local pack: the average Queens restaurant scores 75. There isn't much in the file that would give a customer pause.
