58
Score
The health department has logged 11 inspections at Kelsey's Pizza, the earliest from 2022. Kelsey's Pizza was last inspected on Feb 17, 2026. Medium risk typically reflects a handful of issues that inspectors wrote up but didn't deem critical.
The trend has been favorable: violation counts have eased from around 16 violations to closer to 10 violations per visit over the last few inspections.
The pattern that stands out is “nonfood-contact surface soiled with grease”, which has been cited five times.
Kelsey's Pizza's latest score of 58 falls below the Cocoa average of 82. The full record sits in fairly typical territory for a working restaurant.
