Score
Going back to 2022, Ran's Restaurant has nine inspections in the public record. The most recent visit was on Feb 13, 2026. Diners may want to take note: high risk reflects issues that a health inspector considered important.
Things have been moving the wrong way, with the rolling count rising from around 17 violations to closer to 26 violations per visit.
Across the inspection history, “time/temperature control for safety food cold held” is the issue that surfaces most often, recorded four times.
By comparison, the average Florida City facility scores 66, putting Ran's Restaurant on the weaker side. Taken together, the history suggests a facility that has struggled with consistency.
