NYC Intel pulls restaurant inspection data from the NYC Department of Health. These figures show restaurants currently holding an A grade across all five boroughs.
The NYC Department of Health inspects restaurants and assigns a letter grade based on total health violation points scored. Restaurants must post their grade card in the window. Here's what each grade means.
0–13 violation points. Very clean kitchen and food handling practices. This is the highest grade a restaurant can receive and signals strong health standards.
0 – 13 points14–27 violation points. Some health concerns were found. The restaurant was allowed to remain open but must be reinspected and may face a B grade card in the window.
14 – 27 points28+ violation points. Significant health hazards. A C grade means serious violations like evidence of pests, improper food temperatures, or contaminated surfaces were found.
28+ pointsNYC Intel is the only tool that shows restaurant grades alongside building data — HPD violations, evictions, and 311 complaints — for the same address. This gives you a complete picture of any NYC block.
Check which restaurants are on your prospective block and what their grades are. A block full of C-grade restaurants can signal other sanitation issues in the area.
Enter your building address and see all restaurants within the block — not just a neighborhood-level view. NYC Intel is hyper-local by design.
See how a restaurant's grade has changed over multiple inspections — a restaurant trending from C to A is a good sign, while a restaurant repeatedly cycling between B and C is a red flag.
