Medium Risk

With just two inspections in the record, there isn't enough history to establish a clear pattern. On Jun 26, 2024, the health department conducted the most recent visit. Diners should read medium risk as a signal that some issues exist but aren't extreme.

The picture has gotten worse over the last few visits, with the average climbing from around two violations to closer to four violations.

Restaurants in Orlando average 79, so Tropical Spot trails the local norm. Nothing in the record is alarming, but there's room to improve.
