How Hendry grades

A 77B 22C 10D 1F 5N/R 15

115 kitchens carry a grade. 15 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

Raw animal food stored over/not properly separated from ready-to-eat food. Raw whole fish over salsa in walk in cooler. Operator removed and stored correctly.

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.
