The New York Post reports on the New York City Health Department’s recently enacted letter grading system for restaurant inspections.
Now you “C” them, now you don’t.
The Health Department has identified the first 15 restaurants branded with a lowly C since the city’s A-B-C grading system was launched more than three months ago — but more than half of those eateries were caught hiding their lousy grades from customers….
According to the NYC Health Department Restaurant Inspection Information page:
… Starting in July 2010, New York City is requiring restaurants to post letter grades that correspond to scores that it receives from its sanitary inspection. An inspection score of 0-13 is an A, 14-27 points is a B, and 28 or more points is a C. Grade cards must be posted where they can easily be seen by people passing by…
How did Roosevelt Island restaurants do on the grading system? Well, the Trellis Diner had the most recent inspection on November 4, received 12 violation points for a grade of A and like a parent proud of a child’s Report Card, posted the A grade on their window for all passing Roosevelt Island residents to see.
Trellis Diner Received An A Grade From NY Health Department Restaurant Inspection None of the other Roosevelt Island restaurants have yet to receive a letter grade though their most recent Restaurant Inspection reports are here. UPDATE 4:40 PM – Extension of the Trellis Lease is on the Agenda for the November 17 RIOC Real Estate Development Committee Meeting.
