Score

Low Risk

Public records show eight inspections at Azalea Park stretching back to 2022. The most recent visit was on Feb 5, 2026. Low risk indicates the latest report didn't flag anything that would worry the average customer.

There hasn't been much movement either way: counts have stayed near two violations per visit across recent inspections.

When inspectors have written things up, “equipment and utensils not properly air-dried - wet nesting” has been the most frequent reason, cited two times.

That falls roughly in the middle of the pack for Lakeland restaurants. The full picture is one of consistent compliance.
