CleanEats - NYC Restaurants

CleanEats cuts through the noise and tells you one thing: should you eat here?

The official NYC health inspection site is slow, hard to search, and doesn't work by GPS. CleanEats fixes all of that — open the app, see what's safe on your block, and make a smarter choice before you walk in.

HOW IT WORKS
CleanEats downloads the full NYC restaurant inspection database — 30,000+ restaurants — directly to your phone. All searches are instant and work completely offline. No backend server, no waiting.

Every restaurant gets a simple verdict: EAT or SKIP.

EAT = only A grades, no vermin violations in the past 2 years (configurable)
SKIP = failed grades, vermin history, or both

EAT OR SKIP
- Green pins = EAT. Red pins = SKIP. See the whole block at a glance.
- Only about 42% of NYC restaurants pass the full test — now you'll know which ones.
- Vermin flag surfaces roach, mice, rat, and pest violations specifically
- Projected grades for ungraded inspections based on numeric score

SEARCH & DISCOVER
- GPS map shows restaurants near you with instant R-tree spatial queries
- Full-text search by name, address, or cuisine — results sorted by distance
- Browse by neighborhood, filter by cuisine type (all NYC cuisines supported)

FULL INSPECTION HISTORY
- Every inspection, every violation, fully expandable
- Vermin indicators on every inspection row
- See the grade trend over time — not just the current letter on the door

POWERFUL FILTERS
- Toggle which grades qualify: A, B, C, or Pending
- Allow or block restaurants with vermin history
- Set qualification period: 1, 2, or 3 years of history
