4Recorded violation entries
Florida publishes dated inspection dispositions and counts of high-priority, intermediate and basic violations, without a state letter grade or numeric score. These public records were redistributed by Eat Safely In Florida. Our inspection-visit capture is complete within that publisher’s export; the individual finding-text capture is partial. Read reported counts separately from the text entries shown. A historical disposition does not establish today’s conditions.

Visit number 1. Reported counts exclude reporting-only entries. The text capture is partial: 4 finding entries are available below for this visit. Compare those entries with the reported totals; a missing narrative is not a zero-violation result. Correction or repeat-finding notes remain in the inspector’s recorded wording.
