Levy County
What the state's inspectors have recorded in Levy 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 Levy grades
127 kitchens carry a grade. 27 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
Time/temperature control for safety food cold held at greater than 41 degrees Fahrenheit. pimento cheese (48F - Cold Holding) in small reach in cooler by door, other items 41F or below.

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.
