Public records show 11 inspections at Takos stretching back to 2022. The most recent report on file is from Dec 8, 2025. Low risk indicates the latest report didn't flag anything that would worry the average customer.
Recent inspections have found fewer violations than earlier ones, averaging around two violations lately and about seven violations before that.
Looking across the full record, “no proof provided that food employees are informed” is the recurring theme, flagged three times.
That falls roughly in the middle of the pack for Naples restaurants. The full picture is one of consistent compliance.
