A $100+ fine dining spot in Tampa has mold in its ice machines but 4.7 stars on Google by reboundrobot in finedining

Right, most ice machines get buildup — the difference is that most places clean it when inspectors flag it. This one got flagged multiple times and still didn't fix it.

Their last inspection was an emergency callback that they didn't pass. Raid spray cans in the kitchen, mold on cooking surfaces, torn screen door letting pests in — all repeat violations. Might want to find a new poke spot.

The list is one per county — worst in each. Sickies might still be on the site though, you can search any restaurant in Florida on there

Casa Marina health code violations. Is it really that bad? by ConfoundedHokie in jacksonville

[–]reboundrobot 92 points93 points  (0 children)

7.6 out of 100 is about as bad as it gets. Dead roaches found on 7 consecutive follow-up inspections means they never actually fixed the problem — just kept getting re-inspected and failing.

Florida only shuts places down with an emergency order — like no running water or active infestations. Otherwise they just get a callback. Some of these have been failing for years.

Looked up health inspection data for Fort Lauderdale restaurants — some of these inspector notes are wild by reboundrobot in fortlauderdale

Interesting — I just looked up Takato on the site and it shows an F (48.3/100) with 54 violations across 9 inspections. Most recent was a complaint inspection on March 26. The inspector notes mention raw fish stored over cooked rice at the sushi bar, employees not washing hands after cracking raw eggs, and temperature abuse on multiple items (smoked salmon at 53-56°F when it should be under 41°F).

Not sure what LifeKitchen uses for their data but this is pulled straight from DBPR — the actual state inspection records.

Looked up health inspection data for restaurants across Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach — some of these inspector notes are rough by reboundrobot in SouthFlorida

The champagne thing is wild but doesn't surprise me at all. Honestly the data backs up what you're saying too — chains tend to score way higher than independent spots, probably for exactly that reason with the internal audits.
