How to read these records

Inspection and re-inspection

An inspection is the routine visit; a re-inspection checks that violations found earlier were fixed.

Critical violations

A critical violation is one that can directly cause foodborne illness (temperatures, contamination, hand washing). “Not corrected” means it was not fixed during the visit.

Items

The item codes are those of the State Sanitary Code (Subpart 14-1); the record shows the most recent critical violation in full.

Earlier businesses at this address

Read from the State file of closed (inactive) establishments, matched on street address and ZIP code. A match on address is a strong hint, not proof that two businesses used the same premises.

What is not here

New York City. Operator names, which this site never downloads. Inspection comments.
