Kung Fu Tea
Last inspected: Nov 5, 2025
67
Score
Across the available record, Kung Fu Tea has 10 inspections on file, the first dated 2023. The latest inspection on file is from Nov 5, 2025. Medium risk typically reflects a handful of issues that inspectors wrote up but didn't deem critical.
The picture has improved over the last few visits: recent inspections have averaged around 13 violations, down from roughly 16 violations earlier in the record.
When inspectors have written things up, “handwash sink not accessible for employee use” has been the most frequent reason, cited six times.
Compared to other Pinellas Park restaurants (averaging 82), there's room to close the gap. Taken together, the history looks like that of a busy facility working through the usual inspection cycle.
