Medium Risk NYC Grade: Pending

Across the available record, Simon's Kitchen has three inspections on file, the first dated 2025. Simon's Kitchen was last inspected on Jan 22, 2026. A medium risk score generally means inspectors found things to fix, though most weren't urgent.

The picture has improved over the last few visits: recent inspections have averaged around four violations, down from roughly eight violations earlier in the record.

The pattern that stands out is “non-food contact surface or equipment made of unacceptable material”, which has been cited three times.
