A note about health inspections and reports.
A summary of violations as reported by the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation (DBPR) are listed on this page. The DBPR cites violations based on Florida’s sanitation and safety laws which follow the USDA Food Code. Complaints are listed below as well. Complaints are generally reported by members of the public which can trigger a follow up inspection.
Violations are categorized by levels of priority:
High priority violations are those that could contribute to a foodborne illness or injury including cooking, reheating, cooling, and handwashing.
Intermediate violations are those that, if not addressed, could lead to factors that contribute to foodborne illness or injury including training, documentation, record keeping, labeling, etc.
Basic violations are those that essentially violate best practices for safe operation.
It should be noted that while most establishments correct all violations during the inspection, the DBPR has procedures in place to compel establishments to become and remain compliant. These procedures include follow-up visits, fines, administrative action, and even closure.
The Boca Post reports and statements provided by the DBPR as a result of their investigation and process.
