TROPICAL RESTAURANT
36-10 GREENPOINT AVENUE, Queens, NY 11101 · Restaurant (Latin American)
Résumé des inspections
TROPICAL RESTAURANT a été inspecté 9 fois par NYC Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) depuis le 20 décembre 2022. La dernière inspection, le 22 septembre 2025, a relevé 6 infractions.
Aucune des 9 inspections au dossier n’a été exempte d’infractions. Aucune inspection n'est au dossier pour les 12 derniers mois. Les constats à risque élevé ici concernent : Ravageurs, Nettoyage et désinfection et Contrôle de la température des aliments.
Les inspections récentes ont relevé moins d'infractions que les précédentes; le dossier s'améliore donc.
Ce que signifient ces constats
Chaque autorité sanitaire formule ses infractions différemment; nous les regroupons donc selon leur importance pour la salubrité des aliments. Les constats à risque élevé sont ceux que les inspecteurs jugent critiques, car ils peuvent directement rendre quelqu'un malade.
RavageursRisque élevé
Signes de souris, de rats, de coquerelles ou de mouches, ou ouvertures et encombrement qui leur permettent d'entrer ou de se cacher. Les ravageurs transportent des bactéries et peuvent contaminer les aliments et les surfaces; toute activité est donc prise au sérieux et entraîne habituellement une visite de suivi.
Relevé 12 fois dans 5 inspections distinctes, la plus récente le 22 septembre 2025. Par exemple :
Filth flies or food/refuse/sewage associated with (FRSA) flies or other nuisance pests in establishment’s food and/or non-food areas. FRSA flies include house flies, blow flies, bottle flies, flesh flies, drain flies, Phorid flies and fruit flies.
Nettoyage et désinfectionRisque élevé
Tout ce qui touche les aliments, comme les planches à découper, la vaisselle et les ustensiles, doit être lavé, rincé et désinfecté. Les inspecteurs vérifient la température du lave-vaisselle, la concentration du désinfectant et l'entreposage des linges. Une mauvaise désinfection laisse les bactéries survivre d'une utilisation à l'autre.
Relevé 9 fois dans 5 inspections distinctes, la plus récente le 22 septembre 2025. Par exemple :
Food contact surface not properly washed, rinsed and sanitized after each use and following any activity when contamination may have occurred.
Contrôle de la température des alimentsRisque élevé
Les bactéries se multiplient le plus rapidement entre environ 4 °C et 60 °C. Les inspecteurs vérifient que les aliments froids restent froids, que les aliments chauds restent chauds, que les aliments cuits sont refroidis rapidement et que le personnel dispose de thermomètres précis. Les problèmes de température sont l'une des causes les plus fréquentes d'intoxication alimentaire; ils sont donc considérés comme critiques.
Relevé 5 fois dans 3 inspections distinctes, la plus récente le 22 septembre 2025. Par exemple :
Cold TCS food item held above 41 °F; smoked or processed fish held above 38 °F; intact raw eggs held above 45 °F; or reduced oxygen packaged (ROP) TCS foods held above required temperatures except during active necessary preparation.
Protection des aliments contre la contaminationRisque élevé
Cela concerne l'entreposage, la préparation et la présentation des aliments : viande crue séparée des aliments prêts à manger, aliments couverts et rangés hors du sol, rien qui ne coule ou n'éclabousse dedans. La contamination croisée entre aliments crus et cuits est une voie directe pour la salmonelle et E. coli.
Relevé 5 fois dans 4 inspections distinctes, la plus récente le 14 août 2025. Par exemple :
Raw, cooked or prepared food is adulterated, contaminated, cross-contaminated, or not discarded in accordance with HACCP plan.
Provenance, étiquetage et allergènesRisque élevé
Les aliments doivent provenir de fournisseurs approuvés, rester dans des contenants étiquetés et être jetés lorsqu'ils sont avariés ou endommagés, comme des conserves bosselées ou gonflées. L'étiquetage est important pour les allergies : un contenant sans étiquette peut cacher un allergène.
Relevé 2 fois dans 2 inspections distinctes, la plus récente le 14 août 2025. Par exemple :
16-02: The original nutrition fact labels or ingredient label for a cooking oil, shortening or margarine or food item sold in bulk, or acceptable manufacturer’s documentation not maintained on site.
