What the violations mean

Violation categories, explained

5 violations · 5 categories

Every violation on this record falls into one of the state's standardized categories. Here is what each category covers and why inspectors check for it — in plain English, with the trailing-year count for this kitchen.

No live pests — roaches, rodents, flies — and no gaps that let them in: doors, screens, and outer openings must be protected. Pests move between waste areas and food-prep surfaces, carrying bacteria with them, which is why live activity is among the most serious findings on the form.

On this record, the category appears in 1 of the 1 trailing-year inspection. The written details for each entry are in the state inspection documents linked above.

^† Item numbers refer to the State of Florida’s standardized inspection form; the same item recurring across visits indicates an unresolved problem. Severity groupings and the sanitation score are explained in How it works.
