High Risk

Inspectors have visited Thai Curry 12 times, with records going back to 2022. The newest entry in the record is dated Feb 3, 2026. A high risk tier suggests the facility had a rough recent inspection, with multiple violations on record.

Recent visits have produced comparable findings, with counts hovering near five violations per visit.

The pattern that stands out is “required employee training expired for some employees”, which has been cited five times.

Restaurants in Tamarac average 77, so Thai Curry trails the local norm. There are enough flags in the record to merit a second thought.
