Medium Risk NYC Grade: A

Going back to 2023, Urban Press has five inspections in the public record. On Jul 17, 2025, the health department conducted the most recent visit. A medium risk rating points to a few notable findings at the last inspection, though nothing severe.

The most recent inspection cleaned up several issues, finishing with two violations after four on the prior visit.

Food contact surface not properly washed comes up most often, recorded two times in the inspection record.

That falls roughly in the middle of the pack for Queens restaurants. On the whole, the file is mixed but not concerning.
