Low Risk

Taco Maniaa has been inspected seven times since 2023. The most recent visit was on Jan 15, 2026. A low risk tier reflects an inspection that turned up minimal issues.

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

When inspectors have written things up, “current hotel and restaurant license not displayed” has been the most frequent reason, cited three times.

Compared to the broader Clermont restaurant scene, where the average is 68, this is a stronger showing. There isn't much in the file that would give a customer pause.
