Iron Sushi
Last inspected: Aug 13, 2025
18
Score
Across the available record, Iron Sushi has 11 inspections on file, the first dated 2022. The most recent report on file is from Aug 13, 2025. High risk indicates the latest inspection turned up problems worth knowing about.
The trend has not been favorable: recent inspections average around 17 violations each, up from closer to eight violations before.
When inspectors have written things up, “no chemical test kit provided when using sanitizer” has been the most frequent reason, cited nine times.
By comparison, the average Miami Beach facility scores 69, putting Iron Sushi on the weaker side. There are enough flags in the record to merit a second thought.
