Health inspections here
In Nassau County, the New York State Department of Health publishes each place's latest inspection: its date and the counts of critical and other violations. There is no official grade there, and we don't make one. Nassau County inspects on its own system, and only part of the results reach the state's open data, so many places there have no state record here. Suffolk County publishes the violations its inspectors cited each year, with no score or grade; the app shows the violations cited in 2025.

About the inspection results
Outside New York City there is no official restaurant grade, and we don't make one. Where shown, the date and counts are from the New York State Department of Health's latest inspection on file (health.data.ny.gov), records through Sep 24, 2026. In NYSDOH's words:
“Any use of this data to develop a restaurant grading system is not supported or endorsed by the New York State Department of Health.”
Any analyses, interpretations or conclusions here are ours, not NYSDOH's. Places are never ordered by these counts.
Suffolk County publishes the violations its inspectors cited each year, with no score or grade; an inspection that found nothing isn't on the list. Counts shown are violations cited in 2025, the latest year published (Suffolk County Department of Health Services, opendata.suffolkcountyny.gov).
