Emergency Orders
36 records this window
Restaurants closed by DBPR emergency order in the last 90 days.
OH YEAH, MEAN GENE! SICHUAN FISH RESTAURANT SICHUAN CUISINE in North Miami Beach, MI LINDO ECUADOR in Miami and TACOLOGY in Miami carried the front of this Miami-Dade County file. 36 emergency-order shutdowns in the 90-day window — DBPR ordered the kitchen closed on the spot. These are the most actionable signals: faster than admin actions, faster than license cancellation, faster than corporate dissolution. Across the Red Alert cohort: 1 American, 1 Beach, 1 Chinese, and 1 Mexican. Trend line: emergency-order volume is steady against the last public cut. OH YEAH.

Near Miss
204 records this window
Inspections in the last 30 days that posted high-priority violations but were not shut down.
THE CREAM RISES TO THE TOP — OH YEAH! PAT & PHIL in Doral, LE SPECIALITA / KRYU in Miami and CAFE BELLINI in Bal Harbour drew the loudest scorecard in Miami-Dade County. 204 high-priority citations posted in the 30-day window — none of these resulted in an emergency-order closure (those are in Red Alert). They are the near-miss watch list: restaurants that drew inspector attention but stayed open. Any of them could receive a follow-up inspection. The recurring violation labels were HP and BAS. THE MADNESS.

Closures
59 records this window
The closed-door file: confirmed shutdowns, owner-validated closure posts, DBPR status signals, and external places data that say service has stopped.
SNAP INTO IT! GUACA-MOLE in Hialeah, EMILIO'S TRATTORIA in Bay Harbor Islands and RESTAURANT EL TROVADOR #2 in Homestead carried the front of this Miami-Dade County file. 59 restaurants carry one or more defunct-indicator signals (silent inspector, license inactive, corp dissolved, or third-party verifier confirmation) in the 90-day public window. Across the closure-signal cohort: 5 American spots, 2 bakeries, 2 bars, and 2 cafes. 52 standalone restaurants and 7 chain locations. Trend line: closure-signals volume is steady against the last public cut. These are signals, not all confirmed permanent closures — Closure Score 4/4 = third-party verified; lower scores = likely / probable / DBPR-flagged-inactive. OOOOH YEAH.
