NYC Health Department Will Start Rating City’s Street Food Vendors

Street eats are about to get grades.

The city’s Health Department announced Friday that all 5,500 food carts and trucks authorized to operate in the Big Apple will be getting the same “A,” “B” and “C” sanitary grades given out to restaurants.

“Letter grades on food carts and trucks will help New Yorkers see how these businesses fared on their latest inspection, right when they want to place an order,” said Acting Health Commissioner Dr. Oxiris Barbot.

“Just as diners appreciate letter grading in restaurants, we expect this program to be popular among customers of food carts and trucks.”
