14 Restaurants In Monroe County With Critical Health Violations

These 14 restaurants in Monroe County had multiple critical health inspection violations last month. Dining out can be convenient and even a treat for a special occasion, but we often don't know what's happening in the kitchen. Is it clean? Are there pests? Are employees following hygiene rules? Thankfully, a list of restaurants that have violations in Monroe County has been published for March.

** (The list includes non-restaurants - such as schools and country clubs, which are also inspected and reported to the New York State Department of Health.)
