Score
Public records show seven inspections at 79th Street Barbeque stretching back to 2012. On Jun 27, 2013, the health department conducted the most recent visit. Low risk indicates the latest report didn't flag anything that would worry the average customer. Note that 79th Street Barbeque's inspection history hasn't been updated since Jun 27, 2013; current conditions may have shifted from what the file shows.
There hasn't been much movement either way: counts have stayed near three violations per visit across recent inspections.
When inspectors have written things up, “food and non-food contact equipment utensils clean” has been the most frequent reason, cited four times.
The city-wide average sits at 81, which 79th Street Barbeque's 78 doesn't quite reach. The file should reassure diners considering a visit.
