Here's how:
By restaurant name: Click onto the NY City Health Department's restaurant report card . On their "Restaurant Information Page" you can search for specific restaurants by name.
By neighborhood: Or, find out how to search for "A" rated restaurants by zip code. Not sure of the zip code? You can check that out too: Find the zip code of a Brooklyn neighborhood.
The ratings aren't engraved in stone. The list of A-rated restaurant changes from time to time. That's because the Department of Health continues to make inspections of the city's zillion restaurants. Restaurants can move up from a "B" rating to an "A". They can also move down from an "A" to a "B."
So, if you want to make sure the behind-the-scene action in the kitchen is really clean and up to snuff (at least from the health department's perspective), then it's best to take a second to check their most recent online ratings.
