Medium Risk

Gametime has been inspected 10 times since 2022. The most recent report on file is from Oct 28, 2025. The medium risk tier sits in the middle: not spotless, but not alarming either.

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

That's lower than the typical Tampa restaurant, which scores around 79. Nothing in the record is alarming, but there's room to improve.
