Score
Low Risk

The health department has logged nine inspections at Hurricane Lanes, the earliest from 2022. Inspectors last stopped by on Mar 23, 2026. Low risk indicates the latest report didn't flag anything that would worry the average customer.

The trend has not been favorable: recent inspections average around three violations each, up from closer to one violation before.

When inspectors have written things up, “time/temperature control for safety food cold held” has been the most frequent reason, cited two times.

That puts the facility ahead of the local pack: the average Destin restaurant scores 90. The full record sits in fairly typical territory for a working restaurant.
