Your Home for NYC Restaurant Grades

Balthazar

At nychealthratings.com our motto has always been "you never know what's making you sick (or fat)". Why leave it up to chance? Do the research about the what and where you are eating before you go out. Why make reservations at a high end restaurant to be greeted with a sign in the window that says the restaurant got a C.

Use our google maps based tool to do restaurant inspection searches for all 24,666 restaurants in New York City. You can search by type of restaurant, by name, location, and filter by inspection grade.
