Score
Sizler Tandoori Express appears in inspection records 17 times, starting in 2023. The newest entry in the record is dated Mar 4, 2026. A medium risk rating points to a few notable findings at the last inspection, though nothing severe.
Violation counts have ticked up lately, averaging around eight violations per visit versus roughly four violations earlier in the record.
The most common issue across all inspections has been “no chemical test kit provided when using sanitizer”, showing up eight times.
That's lower than the typical Orlando restaurant, which scores around 79. Nothing in the record is alarming, but there's room to improve.
