Low Risk

Inspectors have visited Mcdonald's seven times, with records going back to 2022. The most recent visit was on Sep 4, 2025. Low risk indicates the latest report didn't flag anything that would worry the average customer.

There hasn't been much movement either way: counts have stayed near two violations per visit across recent inspections.

Looking across the full record, “ice buildup in reach-in freezer on cooks line” is the recurring theme, flagged three times.

The city-wide average for Palmetto sits at 83, putting Mcdonald's on the better side of that line. There isn't much in the file that would give a customer pause.
