The kitchen tells on itself. Statewide frame: Broward County's failure rate is 26% below the Florida average. Broward County's current board shows 62 recent high-priority hits. Mix: 4 sushi bars, 1 American, 1 Burgers, and 1 Greek. Kitchen-English translation: a 90-day window means the recent inspection stretch, not a verdict on every kitchen in the county. The line deserved better.

Emergency Orders
32 records this window
Restaurants closed by DBPR emergency order in the last 90 days.
LAS CARNITAS LATIN CUISINE in Pompano Beach, QUATES MEXICAN RESTAURANT INC in Oakland Park and ASAHI RESTAURANT in Sunrise pulled the heaviest numbers in Broward County. 32 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: 2 Mexican spots, 1 Bakery, 1 Fast Food, and 1 Japanese. Trend line: emergency-order volume is steady against the last public cut. Kitchen-English translation: an emergency order means DBPR ordered service stopped until a callback inspection clears it.

Near Miss
62 records this window
Inspections in the last 30 days that posted high-priority violations but were not shut down.
Somewhere behind the line, the facts got ugly. TEE-JAY THAI SUSHI RESTAURANT in Fort Lauderdale, PINCHO in Sunrise and OKINAWA TERIYAKI & SUSHI EXPRESS in Fort Lauderdale owned the top of the Broward County board. 62 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. Kitchen-English translation: a high-priority violation is the state saying the risk can touch food safety right now.

Closed/Delinquent
111 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.
Stripped of the marketing, the line reads as follows: PIZZA SPOT in Fort Lauderdale, BIMINI BOATYARD BAR & GRILL in Fort Lauderdale and PHO TIEN ASIAN CUISINE in Plantation anchored the high end of the Broward County file. 109 closures confirmed via news, state action, or multiple agreeing social signals. Another 56 surfaced from single-source social signals and remain under review — reported, not confirmed. Recency split: 18 in the last 90 days and 186 historical. Dated closure signals run from 2017-03-06 to 2026-07-21. Kitchen-English translation: a closure signal is evidence a place may have gone dark; only verified tier-4 records are confirmed permanent closures. The line deserved better.

⚠️ Caution
Chronic Violation Record
189 records this window
Active enforcement targets and repeat offenders: restaurants carrying emergency-order history, chronic 11-year systemic violation patterns, or cross-flag enforcement tiers.
Cooks don't lie. Temperature logs don't either: 189 restaurants with chronic violation records surface in Broward County on the 11-year pattern view, led by WILTON WING & PIZZA, TACO MASALA. The full repeat-offender record sits below. Kitchen-English translation: chronic violation record is our shorthand for an 11-year repeat-offender pattern, not a verdict on the operator. That is management, not mystery.

✨ Trusted
Most Improved
41 records this window
Restaurants whose recent-window violation count is at least 50% lower than the prior window, with the most recent inspection clean.
Past the velvet rope, the back of house keeps no secrets: BARILOCHE GOURMET in Fort Lauderdale, ROCCO'S TACOS in Fort Lauderdale and CHICK-FIL-A AT BROWARD MALL in Plantation anchored the high end of the Broward County file. 41 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. BARILOCHE GOURMET in Fort Lauderdale dropped HP+Critical counts from 18 to 2 across the two 12-month windows (88.9% better). Kitchen-English translation: most improved means the recent record got materially cleaner than the prior-year pattern.

Clean Plates
129 records this window
Restaurants with multiple inspections in the current quarter and zero high-priority or intermediate violations.
Walk into any prep room and the truth lives in the cooler: 129 Broward County licensees ran a clean Q2 2026 ledger across multiple inspections — GULFSTREAM PARK THEME PARK CARTS, TAYLOR MADE BBQ, RED ZEPPELIN among them. These are repeat visits with zero high-priority or intermediate violations — the operators rewarded for consistency, not one lucky inspection. GULFSTREAM PARK THEME PARK CARTS stretched a high-priority-free run to 14 inspections covering roughly 3.5 years. Kitchen-English translation: a clean plate means the recent inspection record stayed quiet where the state was looking. The line deserved better.

🆕 New
Openings
53 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.
When the inspector's clipboard meets the temp log, the gap is the story: Broward County ledger: 53 opening signals. 81 announced via FB/news/operator signal; 4164 DBPR/event-ledger new-license records. Current names include SMASH N FRIES in Plantation, HUEY MAGOO'S CHICKEN TENDERS in Coral Springs and JERRYS JERK in Fort Lauderdale. Ledger type mix: 4164 new-license records and 81 announcement-led records. Cuisine/venue mix: 2463 Unknown and 122 Pizza. Area concentration: 851 FORT LAUDERDALE and 579 HOLLYWOOD. Velocity check: 204 opening signals in the last 90 days, 40 in the last 30. Dated opening signals run from 2016-07-07 to 2026-07-20. 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. Kitchen-English translation: an opening signal starts with licensing or source-confirmed evidence, not wishful ribbon-cutting. That is management, not mystery.
