High Risk

Natures Table has been inspected three times since 2022. The most recent visit was on Sep 29, 2023. A high risk tier suggests the facility had a rough recent inspection, with multiple violations on record. Public records show no inspections at Natures Table since Sep 29, 2023, so this file may not reflect current conditions.

Violation counts have ticked up lately, averaging around 16 violations per visit versus roughly seven violations earlier in the record.

When inspectors have written things up, “handwash sink used for purposes other than handwashing” has been the most frequent reason, cited two times.

Compared to other Gainesville restaurants (averaging 75), there's room to close the gap. There are enough flags in the record to merit a second thought.
