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.

The NYC Health ratings mobile App was entered into The NYC Big Apps 3.0 Competition! Download it here.
