Ida food hygiene rating

Restaurant/Cafe/Canteen · Westminster

Ida holds a 5, the highest food hygiene rating there is. At its last inspection the restaurant met every standard the inspector checked, with nothing needing attention.

The rating: 5 - Very good

The rating dates from 25 March 2025, 15 months ago. Councils typically re-inspect higher-risk businesses every six months to two years, with well-run, low-risk places visited least often, so this is a normal gap.

Address: 167 Fifth Avenue, London, W10 4DT

How it compares in Westminster

That puts Ida among the 3,663 places in Westminster holding top marks, 70% of everywhere the council rates. A 5 is the norm here rather than the exception, so it is the rating to expect, not to be impressed by.

What the inspector found

An inspection scores three things: how food is handled, the physical condition of the premises, and how much the inspector trusts management to keep standards up. At Ida none of the three raised a concern, the overall rating is only ever as strong as its weakest area, so a clean sweep is what produces a high score.

Questions about Ida

What is Ida's food hygiene rating?

Ida has a food hygiene rating of 5 out of 5 (very good), given by Westminster Council on 25 March 2025.

Is Ida safe to eat at?

The rating covers hygiene standards found at inspection, not the food itself. At 5 out of 5, the inspector found hygiene standards at this restaurant to be very good, the top end of the scale.

When was Ida last inspected?

Ida was last inspected on 25 March 2025, 15 months ago. Food hygiene inspections are unannounced, and the rating is published by Westminster Council rather than by the business.

What did the inspector find at Ida?

The inspector scored three areas. Hygienic food handling was rated "good", the cleanliness and condition of the building "good", and confidence in the management of food safety "very good". Lower concern in all three is what earns a high overall rating.

How does Ida compare to other places in Westminster?

70% of the 5,235 rated food businesses in Westminster hold the top rating of 5, and Ida is one of them.

Who decides the rating?

Westminster Council inspects Ida and sets the rating; the Food Standards Agency publishes it. Neither the business nor this site can change a rating, a business that disagrees can appeal to its council, and can request a re-inspection once it has fixed the problems.

Tell me when this changes

The Food Standards Agency publishes only a business's rating today, not what it scored before, and not when it moves. We check every UK rating each night. Watch Ida and we will email you the morning after its rating changes.
