Press Room / Clay
Clay County
What the state's inspectors have recorded in Clay County kitchens, as of the most recent nightly pull. Every line links to the record it came from, and every finding is quoted exactly as the inspector typed it.
How Clay grades
429 kitchens carry a grade. 40 show N/R — not inspected in about fifteen months, so we would rather say nothing than something stale. Grades are ours, not the state's.
Most recent high-priority finding
Toxic substance/chemical improperly stored. Two containers of hand soap stored directly against single-service portion cups and lids in storage closet next to hot water heater room.

Please don't call these official state grades. Florida does not issue letter grades to restaurants — it records what an inspector found and how the visit ended, and that is all. Every grade, score and badge on this site is ours, computed the same way for every kitchen in the state from the state's public records. The whole formula is published at how we grade. Inspection findings, closures and disciplinary records are unedited public records from the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation.
