Score
Medium Risk

Sushi Sake Doral appears in inspection records 12 times, starting in 2022. The latest inspection on file is from Oct 7, 2025. Medium risk typically reflects a handful of issues that inspectors wrote up but didn't deem critical.

Things have been moving in the right direction, with the rolling count dropping from around 13 violations to closer to six violations per visit.

Across the inspection history, “cutting board has cut marks and is no longer cleanable” is the issue that surfaces most often, recorded six times.

That's lower than the typical Miami restaurant, which scores around 74. The full record sits in fairly typical territory for a working restaurant.
