Score
Across the available record, Le Val De Loire has seven inspections on file, the first dated 2022. Inspectors last stopped by on Jan 30, 2025. Low risk indicates the latest report didn't flag anything that would worry the average customer.
The picture has gotten worse over the last few visits, with the average climbing from around five violations to closer to seven violations.
The pattern that stands out is “raw chicken stored over fish soup and raw mussels”, which has been cited two times.
That falls roughly in the middle of the pack for Deerfield Beach restaurants. Taken together, the history looks like that of a busy facility working through the usual inspection cycle.
