New York City's Health Department conducts unannounced inspections at more than 25,000 restaurants annually to assess health and safety compliance. While most restaurants pass, violations can range from minor issues to severe public health hazards like vermin infestations. Restaurants with numerous violations may receive fines or lower letter grades; a score of zero to 13 earns an 'A,' while 28 points or more receive a 'C' grade. Significant health threats, such as infestations, lead to immediate closures, especially for establishments unable to address issues on the spot.
The Health Department inspects over 25,000 New York City restaurants each year for health and safety standards, aiming to ensure public safety and hygiene.
Restaurants accumulating 28 points or more from health violations receive a 'C' rating, while non-food-safety violations can lead to fines or points deductions.
