High Risk NYC Grade: Pending

The health department has logged three inspections at Star Billiards, the earliest from 2023. Inspectors last stopped by on Sep 24, 2025. The high risk label is a heads-up that the most recent visit didn't go well.

Compared to the prior visit, inspectors found more to write up: seven violations versus two before.

Evidence of mice or live mice in establishment's food accounts for the largest share of issues, appearing two times across the record.

That's lower than the typical Bronx restaurant, which scores around 77. There are enough flags in the record to merit a second thought.
