Medium Risk NYC Grade: A

Public records show four inspections at Stamatis stretching back to 2022. The most recent report on file is from Feb 13, 2025. Medium risk typically reflects a handful of issues that inspectors wrote up but didn't deem critical.

Things are looking better lately, with recent visits averaging around four violations compared to roughly seven violations earlier on.

When inspectors have written things up, “anti-siphonage or back-flow prevention device not provided” has been the most frequent reason, cited three times.

That falls roughly in the middle of the pack for Queens restaurants. The full record sits in fairly typical territory for a working restaurant.
