Score
3 Natives appears in inspection records 13 times, starting in 2022. Inspectors last stopped by on Dec 2, 2025. Medium risk typically reflects a handful of issues that inspectors wrote up but didn't deem critical.
There hasn't been much movement either way: counts have stayed near four violations per visit across recent inspections.
When inspectors have written things up, “no probe thermometer provided to measure temperature” has been the most frequent reason, cited three times.
That's lower than the typical Pembroke Pines restaurant, which scores around 79. On the whole, the file is mixed but not concerning.
