70
Score
Inspectors have visited Bleu Bird Wings five times, with records going back to 2022. The most recent report on file is from Apr 8, 2024. A medium risk score generally means inspectors found things to fix, though most weren't urgent. The file hasn't been updated since Apr 8, 2024, so take the current picture with that in mind.
Things have been moving the wrong way, with the rolling count rising from around two violations to closer to five violations per visit.
That's lower than the typical Gainesville restaurant, which scores around 75. The full record sits in fairly typical territory for a working restaurant.
