High Risk

Going back to 2022, Restaurante La Nueva Milagrosa has 16 inspections in the public record. The latest inspection on file is from Jan 13, 2026. High risk usually means inspectors flagged either critical violations or a stack of smaller ones.

Things have been moving the wrong way, with the rolling count rising from around two violations to closer to seven violations per visit.

“Rodent activity present as evidenced” accounts for the largest share of issues, appearing five times across the record.

Restaurants in Tampa average 79, so Restaurante La Nueva Milagrosa trails the local norm. There are enough flags in the record to merit a second thought.
