Call the Florida DBPR at 850-487-1395 or report a restaurant for health violations online. Get the whole story at our restaurant inspection database. Basic violations are those considered against best practices. A warning is issued after an inspector documents violations that must be corrected by a certain date or within a specified number of days from receipt of the inspection report. An administrative complaint is a form of legal action taken by the division. Insufficient compliance after a warning, a pattern of repeat violations or existence of serious conditions that warrant immediate action may result in the division initiating an administrative complaint against the establishment. Says the division website: "Correcting the violations is important, but penalties may still result from violations corrected after the warning time was over." An emergency order — when a restaurant is closed by the inspector — is based on an immediate threat to the public. Here, the Division of Hotels and Restaurants director has determined that the establishment must stop doing business and any division license is suspended to protect health, safety or welfare of the public. A 24-hour call-back inspection will be performed after an emergency closure or suspension of license.

Feud brewing after Uniontown church closes entry to shopping plaza from private driveway
A feud is brewing between a church and a business plaza in Uniontown after the church closed entry to the plaza from its private driveway. After two years of being a good neighbor, the Faith Assembly Church has had enough. They built a wall and installed a gate on Sunday to stop customers from what they call free use of a small section of its private driveway. In just a short time, KDKA-TV's camera captured driver after driver after driver, to their surprise, forced to turn around after they were denied access into the Beesontown Shoppes. "Three or four cars of us had to pull up and turn back around and kinda let each other do that, then go back out and find a new way back in which was ... yeah," said driver Cody Thompson. For years, customers have used the entrance on Wayland Smith Drive to get into the plaza, but when Faith Assembly Church moved into the former Radisson Hotel two years ago, things changed. Now drivers are forced to use the secondary entrance, which can only be accessed on the west side of Main Street. (Photo: KDKA) "That is just so tight trying to turn there," said driver Lisa Dinunno. "You have to make it more convenient. You have to make it easy access in and out," Dinunno said. KDKA-TV talked to a Cisco driver who was trying to make a delivery to Jersey Mike's, but the 18-wheeler couldn't make the turn at the alternate entrance, which is clearly marked "no trucks." "My truck is way too big for me to go up from the other side," he said. In a statement on the church's website, the board says in part: "As owners of the property, we felt it necessary to firmly establish control of the driveway, since it requires our maintenance and ultimately includes our liability. For these reasons, we are closing the illegal access into the plaza property from our private driveway until a legal agreement is in place." Customers say it's too much of an inconvenience now to access the plaza, so in turn, they say they'll take their businesses elsewhere. KDKA-TV talked with an attorney for the church who says he believes they'll be able to rectify the situation "very soon."

2 restaurants closed, insect activity found in latest Tarrant health inspections
Two restaurants were closed, and insect activity was observed at three others in the latest round of Tarrant County health inspections, according to the inspection report. The report compiled by the Star-Telegram contains data from May 25 through June 7 and 381 inspections. Tarrant County's restaurant inspections function on a 100-point system: Demerits are subtracted from a starting score of 100, which is considered perfect. A score of 70 is considered extremely poor. Two restaurants were closed by Tarrant County Public Health: Jersey Mike's Subs, 4712 Colleyville Blvd. in Colleyville, had a score of 94. Significant insect activity was observed in the kitchen and dining area, according to the report. The location closed voluntarily for deep cleaning and was later reopened after a follow-up inspection. Sabor Venezolano, 8506 Robbins Drive in Fort Worth, had a score of 81. The restaurant was closed because of a lack of hot water at the sinks, according to the report. Insect droppings and roaches were observed at three restaurants: The Hub Restaurant And Bar, 2208 Central Drive in Bedford, had a score of 63. Restaurants with a score below 70 require a follow-up inspection. Zena Sushi Express, 1101 Melbourne Road in Hurst, had a score of 86. Mini Taqueria And Popuseria, 207 N. Barton St. in Grapevine had a score of 82. Inspectors observed insect droppings and nymphs on the floor of the kitchen. 'Nymphs' generally refers to juvenile insects, particularly cockroaches. Here are the inspection scores and violations for restaurants that Tarrant County Public Health (TCPH) inspected for May 25th - June 7th, 2025. TCPH inspects and scores all restaurants in Tarrant County except for those located in Fort Worth, Arlington, Euless and North Richland Hills. Scores are based on a 100-point scale. When the score is below 70, a follow-up inspection is required. To search the restaurant inspections, type in a keyword or restaurant name. You can also sort by score. Steve Wilson swilson@
