Score

High Risk

There aren't many inspections to draw from yet: just two so far. The latest inspection on file is from Jan 13, 2023. A high risk rating points to multiple serious findings at the most recent inspection. Gary Wayne and Melissa Kruse's record stops at Jan 13, 2023, more than two years back, so current conditions may differ.

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

Compared to other Lakeland restaurants (averaging 86), there's room to close the gap. There are enough flags in the record to merit a second thought.
