How Gilchrist grades

A 11B 4C 3D 1F 7N/R 3

26 kitchens carry a grade. 3 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

Ready-to-eat, time/temperature control for safety food marked with a date that exceeds 7 days after opening/preparation. Container of cooked Chicken dated 8/7 in walk-in-cooler

An emergency order stops a kitchen operating on the spot. Many reopen within days once the problem is fixed — each restaurant's page shows how its order ended.

Every inspection on this site links to the state's own report for that visit. If something doesn't match DBPR's record, that's our bug and we want to hear about it — the record on their side is always the one that governs.

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.
