What this is
Restaurants, delis, caterers, school and camp kitchens in New York State outside New York City are permitted and inspected by the State Department of Health or the county health department. The State publishes every inspection since 2005, one line per violation. This site puts each establishment on one record: every inspection, the critical violations and whether they were corrected — and, from the file of closed establishments, the businesses that operated at the same address before.
Who uses it
- Buying or leasing a restaurant — the inspection record of the business and of the earlier operators at the address.
- Diners — the last inspection and its critical violations.
- Owners — your own record as the State publishes it.
What it is not
Not the New York State Department of Health, not a county health department, and not an official inspection report. New York City restaurants are inspected by the City and are not in this file. Operator names are never published.
