Food Safety Alerts for New York City
New York City has one of the most rigorous restaurant inspection programs in the country — but the results are buried in government databases that most New Yorkers never check. Panko Alerts brings NYC food safety data to your phone every day.
What we monitor in NYC
Panko Alerts tracks NYC DOH restaurant inspection results (scores, violations, grade changes), 311 restaurant complaints (noise, pests, odors, unsanitary conditions), FDA recalls affecting products sold in New York, CDC outbreaks linked to NYC restaurants or food suppliers, and DOL labor law changes affecting NYC food service workers.
NYC 311 restaurant complaints
NYC 311 logs dozens of restaurant complaints every day — everything from rodent sightings to illegal commercial cooking in residential buildings. Panko Alerts ingests these complaints and surfaces the ones tagged to restaurants, so you can see what's happening on your block before you walk in.
Why NYC diners need this
With 27,000+ restaurants, NYC has more dining options than almost any city on earth. But the volume also means inspectors can't be everywhere at once. Between inspections, conditions can change. Having access to real-time 311 complaints, inspection scores, and recall alerts gives you visibility that the letter grade alone can't provide.
