Toyo Ramen Bar vs Park Slope-Gowanus
Park Slope-Gowanus runs 85% clean across 512 tracked restaurants — 397 clean, 24 mid, 44 cooked.
Against the 512 spots Cooked tracks in Park Slope-Gowanus, this one comes out cleaner than 4% of them.
New York City health inspectors score violations in points, and lower is better: 0–13 points earns an A, 14–27 a B, and 28 or more a C. Every restaurant is inspected at least once a year, and the letter has to be posted in the window. A restaurant that scores 14 or more on the first inspection of a cycle does not get a letter right away — it stays “Grade Pending” until a re-inspection settles it, which is why some spots here show an hourglass instead of a letter. Cooked only ever shows a letter the city actually posted; we never infer one from a score.
