Iron Sushi, 78th and 1st, recently visited by Dept of Health
The Dept of Health has been hard at work on the UES in the past month, checking in on spots like Starbucks, Tasti D Lite, Banshee Pub, Iron Sushi and Tang Tang Noodle.
If you haven't had the pleasure of a meal at Tang Tang Noodle (76th and 3rd), now's not the time to give the place a whirl. The team there has the dubious honor of raking in the most violation points (72) in the recent sweep. The violations? The included "evidence of flying insects or live flying insects present in facility's food and/or non-food areas and evidence of rats or live rats present in facility's food and/or non-food areas." Lili's Noodle (on 3rd btwn 84th and 85th) was a close second with 70 violations, and Sushi Go Go (on 2nd btwn 85th and 86th) with 69.
So, who was nailed for having mice and/or rats? Besides the above three, evidence (rat shit i'm guessing?) was also found at Szechuan Kitchen, Falafel & More, Tasti D Lite, 71st Cafe, Paris Match Bistro, Iron Sushi, Stargate Diner, The Back Page, Il Vagabondo, Marco Polo Pizza, Dorrian's and Angel's Restaurant.
Turquoise (81st and 2nd) had zero violations.
It's enough to make you stop eating out.

I guess now we know what the "More" is at Falafel & More
