Score
Across the available record, Pointe West Country Club has eight inspections on file, the first dated 2022. Inspectors last stopped by on Jan 13, 2026. Low risk means the most recent visit produced few or no significant findings.
There hasn't been much movement either way: counts have stayed near six violations per visit across recent inspections.
Looking across the full record, “equipment and utensils not properly air-dried - wet nesting” is the recurring theme, flagged three times.
That falls roughly in the middle of the pack for Vero Beach restaurants. There isn't much in the file that would give a customer pause.
