Score
Going back to 2022, East Garden has 12 inspections in the public record. The most recent visit was on Nov 4, 2025. A high risk tier suggests the facility had a rough recent inspection, with multiple violations on record.
The trend has been favorable: violation counts have eased from around 17 violations to closer to 12 violations per visit over the last few inspections.
Across the inspection history, “nonfood-contact surface soiled with grease” is the issue that surfaces most often, recorded nine times.
Compared to other Orlando restaurants (averaging 79), there's room to close the gap. Diners may want to scan the inspection details before deciding to visit.
