High Risk

The health department has logged 14 inspections at Taiwan Express, the earliest from 2022. The newest entry in the record is dated Apr 22, 2026. Diners may want to take note: high risk reflects issues that a health inspector considered important.

Performance has remained roughly level over recent inspections, averaging near 16 violations each time.

“No paper towels” accounts for the largest share of issues, appearing eight times across the record.

Compared to other Orlando restaurants (averaging 79), there's room to close the gap. There are enough flags in the record to merit a second thought.
