Medium Risk

With just two inspections in the record, there isn't enough history to establish a clear pattern. Inspectors last stopped by on Aug 25, 2025. Medium risk typically reflects a handful of issues that inspectors wrote up but didn't deem critical.

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

The pattern that stands out is “spray bottle containing toxic substance not labeled”, which has been cited two times.

By comparison, the average Orlando facility scores 79, putting La Papa Caliente on the weaker side. Nothing in the record is alarming, but there's room to improve.
