Score
Across the available record, Casa Tua Cucina has eight inspections on file, the first dated 2022. The newest entry in the record is dated Jan 14, 2026. A medium risk score generally means inspectors found things to fix, though most weren't urgent.
The trend has not been favorable: recent inspections average around 13 violations each, up from closer to six violations before.
The pattern that stands out is “clam/mussel/oyster tags not marked”, which has been cited four times.
Compared to other Miami restaurants (averaging 74), there's room to close the gap. Taken together, the history looks like that of a busy facility working through the usual inspection cycle.
