Medium Risk

Public records show four inspections at Key West Golf Club stretching back to 2022. On Aug 13, 2025, the health department conducted the most recent visit. Diners should read medium risk as a signal that some issues exist but aren't extreme.

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

The most common issue across all inspections has been “carbon dioxide/helium tanks not adequately secured”, showing up three times.

That's lower than the typical Key West restaurant, which scores around 74. On the whole, the file is mixed but not concerning.
