Mix: 2 restaurants, 1 Chinese, 1 Religious, and 1 Sandwiches. In plain Jersey: a 90-day window means the recent inspection stretch, not a verdict on every kitchen in the county, capisce?

Emergency Orders
60 records this window
Restaurants closed by DBPR emergency order in the last 90 days.
Ya want the truth? The record's right here: KFC # L518064 in Jacksonville, NUDO VIETNAMESE CUISINE in Jacksonville and THE LOCAL - NEPTUNE BEACH in Jacksonville anchored the high end of the the Jacksonville area file. 60 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 Fast Food, 1 Restaurant, 1 Seafood, and 1 Vietnamese. Trend line: emergency-order volume is steady against the last public cut. In plain Jersey: an emergency order means DBPR ordered service stopped until a callback inspection clears it, capisce? Capisce?

Near Miss
78 records this window
Inspections in the last 30 days that posted high-priority violations but were not shut down.
Listen, my friend, the numbers don't stutter: TENKURA SUSHI in Yulee, MR FRIED in Jacksonville and CHICKEN SALAD CHICK in St. Augustine drew the loudest scorecard in the Jacksonville area. 78 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. In plain Jersey: a high-priority violation is the state saying the risk can touch food safety right now, capisce?

Closed/Delinquent
528 records this window
Two tiers: confirmed closures (owner-validated posts, news, and external places data that say service has stopped) and DBPR delinquent/inactive licenses (Primary Status Code 45/46) — a regulatory state, not by itself a confirmed closure.
Madonn', here we go again: CARNE EN VARA in Jacksonville, CHOPP BOXX in Jacksonville and DIDTHAT FUNNEL CAKES AND MORE in Jacksonville drew the loudest scorecard in the Jacksonville area. 45 closures confirmed via news, state action, or multiple agreeing social signals. Another 21 surfaced from single-source social signals and remain under review — reported, not confirmed. Main evidence reasons: 694 DBPR inactive/cancelled status (45/46) and 216 social or silence signal. Confidence mix: 653 suspected and 261 confirmed. Velocity check: 51 closure-evidence records in the last 90 days, 49 in the last 30. Dated closure signals run from 2007-10-27 to 2026-07-13. In plain Jersey: a closure signal is evidence a place may have gone dark; only verified tier-4 records are confirmed permanent closures, capisce? What're you gonna do.

The full repeat-offender record sits below. In plain Jersey: chronic violation record is our shorthand for an 11-year repeat-offender pattern, not a verdict on the operator, capisce? Capisce?

✨ Trusted
Most Improved
16 records this window
Restaurants whose recent-window violation count is at least 50% lower than the prior window, with the most recent inspection clean.
Ova here we don't sugarcoat the count: IHOP #36-233 in Palm Coast, SONNY`S REAL PIT BAR B Q in Palm Coast and CHIPOTLE MEXICAN GRILL 4528 in Jacksonville ran away with the the Jacksonville area count. 16 restaurants met the sustained-improvement test: at least four inspections in each 12-month window, recent HP+Critical counts cut by 50% or more, and an active license. IHOP #36-233 in Palm Coast dropped HP+Critical counts from 12 to 2 across the two 12-month windows (83.3% better). In plain Jersey: most improved means the recent record got materially cleaner than the prior-year pattern, capisce?

Clean Plates
198 records this window
Restaurants with multiple inspections in the current quarter and zero high-priority or intermediate violations.
Between you and me, it's a shame: 198 the Jacksonville area licensees ran a clean Q2 2026 ledger across multiple inspections — LARRY'S GIANT SUBS, BANANA LEAF ASIAN BISTRO INC, CROSBY'S CAFE INC among them. These are repeat visits with zero high-priority or intermediate violations — the operators rewarded for consistency, not one lucky inspection. LARRY'S GIANT SUBS stretched a high-priority-free run to 12 inspections covering roughly 3 years. In plain Jersey: a clean plate means the recent inspection record stayed quiet where the state was looking, capisce? What're you gonna do.

🆕 New
Openings
41 records this window
New DBPR licenses plus confirmed opening signals: the places that just joined the map and still need their first public-record track record.
Fuhgeddaboudit, the paperwork says it all: the Jacksonville area ledger: 41 opening signals. 18 announced via FB/news/operator signal; 1108 DBPR/event-ledger new-license records. Current names include AL'S YUM YUM in St. Johns, A&A ICE CREAM in Atlantic Beach and BROSKII FISH & CHICKEN in Jacksonville. Ledger type mix: 1108 new-license records and 18 announcement-led records. Cuisine/venue mix: 370 Unknown and 71 Fast Food. Area concentration: 596 JACKSONVILLE and 100 SAINT AUGUSTINE. Velocity check: 76 opening signals in the last 90 days, 24 in the last 30. Dated opening signals run from 2023-07-05 to 2026-07-15. RiskyEats treats these as opening signals: license issue, announcement, or operational evidence can precede the first routine inspection, so the paragraph does not imply a clean inspection history. In plain Jersey: an opening signal starts with licensing or source-confirmed evidence, not wishful ribbon-cutting, capisce? Capisce?
