Low Risk NYC Grade: A

The health department has logged five inspections at Junior's, the earliest from 2023. The most recent visit was on Dec 10, 2024. Low risk indicates the latest report didn't flag anything that would worry the average customer.

Recent inspections have found fewer violations than earlier ones, averaging around two violations lately and about four violations before that.

When inspectors have written things up, “filth flies or food/refuse/sewage associated with (FRSA) flies” has been the most frequent reason, cited four times.

Compared to the broader Brooklyn restaurant scene, where the average is 77, this is a stronger showing. There isn't much in the file that would give a customer pause.
