This data includes the name and location of food service establishments and the violations that were found at the time of their last inspection. Although violation details are collected on inspection reports (i.e., the actual food item, quantity and temperature of food found out of temperature control) as well as corrective actions for critical violations, this data set is limited to the violation number and the corresponding general violation description. This dataset is for reporting purposes only. Any concerns about individual establishments should be referred to the corresponding Local Health Department.

The New York City Open Restaurant is an effort to implement a citywide multi-phase program to expand outdoor seating options for food establishments to promote open space, enhance social distancing, and help them rebound in these difficult economic times.
For real time updates on restaurants registered in the program, please visit NYC Open Restaurants dashboard: https://bit.ly/2Z00kn8
** Please note this Open Restaurant Applications dataset may contain multiple entries (e.g. restaurants submitting 2 or more applications). The Open Restaurants dashboard website containing real time update, noted above, will have fewer total records due to the removal of multiple applications and only list the newest entry.

This data includes the name and location of active food service establishments and the violations that were found at the time of the inspection. Inspections are a snapshot in time and are not always reflective of the day-to-day operations and overall condition of an establishment.

This data includes the name and location of inactive food service establishments and the violations that were found at the time of the inspection. Inactive food service establishments include only establishments that are no longer in business or have not operated for an extended period of time. Inspections are a “snapshot” in time and are not always reflective of the day-to-day operations and overall condition of an establishment. This dataset is refreshed on a monthly basis.

The dataset contains every sustained or not yet adjudicated violation citation from every full or special program inspection conducted up to three years prior to the most recent inspection for restaurants and college cafeterias in an active status on the RECORD DATE (date of the data pull). When an inspection results in more than one violation, values for associated fields are repeated for each additional violation record. Establishments are uniquely identified by their CAMIS (record ID) number. Keep in mind that thousands of restaurants start business and go out of business every year; only restaurants in an active status are included in the dataset.
Records are also included for each restaurant that has applied for a permit but has not yet been inspected and for inspections resulting in no violations. Establishments with inspection date of 1/1/1900 are new establishments that have not yet received an inspection. Restaurants that received no violations are represented by a single row and coded as having no violations using the ACTION field.
Because this dataset is compiled from several large administrative data systems, it contains some illogical values that could be a result of data entry or transfer errors. Data may also be missing.
This dataset and the information on the Health Department’s Restaurant Grading website come from the same data source. The Health Department’s Restaurant Grading website is here:

MenuStat.org is an interactive online database of nutrition and menu information from top national restaurant chains. Each item is coded a mutually exclusive food category and descriptive information is coded into binary variables (e.g. on the kids menu). A new year of data is added annually and individual menu items are linked over time with a unique ID, allowing for trend analyses. On MenuStat.org, menu items that can be ordered together as part of a customizable or combination meal are linked together by a unique ID (Customizable_Build_ID) and all data can be exported for further analyses. NYC DOHMH developed and maintains MenuStat, but it is hosted externally
