Score
KFC has been inspected nine times since 2022. The latest inspection on file is from Jan 28, 2026. When a facility lands in medium risk territory, it usually means a mixed inspection result.
Recent visits have produced comparable findings, with counts hovering near four violations per visit.
When inspectors have written things up, “equipment in poor repair” has been the most frequent reason, cited three times.
That falls roughly in the middle of the pack for Miami restaurants. On the whole, the file is mixed but not concerning.
