The New York City Health Department makes unannounced inspections of over 25,000 restaurants each year to ensure compliance with health and safety regulations. Most restaurants manage to pass inspections, but those accumulating violation points, particularly for critical issues like pest infestations or severe sanitation failures, face penalties. Establishments are graded from 'A' to 'C' based on these violations. Serious public health hazards can lead to immediate shutdowns. Recent inspections revealed specific restaurants that were closed due to significant violations, highlighting ongoing issues within the city’s food establishments.
