Madre santa, Dios mío — Benchmarked statewide: Broward County is near the Florida mean. Broward County holds 92 recent high-priority hits. Mix: 2 seafood spots, 1 Argentine, 1 Cafe, and 1 Chinese. Mija, in plain English: a 90-day window means the recent inspection stretch, not a verdict on every kitchen in the county. May they all wake up tomorrow with sechel.

Emergency Orders
33 records this window
Restaurants closed by DBPR emergency order in the last 90 days.
Ay, madre mía — CRAFT FT LAUDERDALE in Fort Lauderdale, LAS CARNITAS LATIN CUISINE in Pompano Beach and QUATES MEXICAN RESTAURANT INC in Oakland Park sat at the head of the Broward County list. 33 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 Gastropub, and 1 Japanese. Trend line: emergency-order volume is steady against the last public cut. Mija, in plain English: an emergency order means DBPR ordered service stopped until a callback inspection clears it. Que se cuiden — los pobres clientes.

Near Miss
92 records this window
Inspections in the last 30 days that posted high-priority violations but were not shut down.
Mira lo que te digo — WESTON DINER in Davie, GRATEFUEL CAFE in Fort Lauderdale and PEKING DUCK HOUSE in Pompano Beach pulled the heaviest numbers in Broward County. 92 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. Mija, in plain English: a high-priority violation is the state saying the risk can touch food safety right now. I should live so long.

Closed/Delinquent
125 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.
Ay Dios mío del Cielo — GRATEFUEL CAFE in Fort Lauderdale, PIRATE REPUBLIC BAR SEAFOOD & GRILL in Fort Lauderdale and BIMINI BOATYARD BAR & GRILL in Fort Lauderdale sat at the head of the Broward County list. 107 closures confirmed via news, state action, or multiple agreeing social signals. Another 46 surfaced from single-source social signals and remain under review — reported, not confirmed. Recency split: 18 in the last 90 days and 213 historical. Dated closure signals run from 2017-03-06 to 2026-07-24. Mija, in plain English: a closure signal is evidence a place may have gone dark; only verified tier-4 records are confirmed permanent closures. A klog tsu Columbus's.

⚠️ 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.
Vey iz mir, mija — 189 restaurants with chronic violation records surface in Broward County on the 11-year pattern view, led by MOON THAI & JAPANESE, DINER BY THE SEA. The full repeat-offender record sits below. Mija, in plain English: chronic violation record is our shorthand for an 11-year repeat-offender pattern, not a verdict on the operator. Don't even ask, mija.

Most Improved
44 records this window
Restaurants whose recent-window violation count is at least 50% lower than the prior window, with the most recent inspection clean.
Caramba, mein kindeleh — FIRST WATCH #0083 in Sunrise, BARILOCHE GOURMET in Fort Lauderdale and ROCCO'S TACOS in Fort Lauderdale owned the top of the Broward County board. 44 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. FIRST WATCH #0083 in Sunrise dropped HP+Critical counts from 22 to 2 across the two 12-month windows (90.9% better). Mija, in plain English: most improved means the recent record got materially cleaner than the prior-year pattern. Comer es vivir, but not LIKE THAT.

Clean Plates
129 records this window
Restaurants with multiple inspections in the current quarter and zero high-priority or intermediate violations.
Ay bendito, mija, listen to what I am telling you. In Broward County, 129 licensees managed a clean Q2 2026 ledger, which means these kitchens kept everything spotless across all their inspections. These are the good ones, the ones who respect my kitchen and keep the schmutz away from the food. Mira lo que te digo, even the big names like GULFSTREAM PARK THEME PARK CARTS, TAYLOR MADE BBQ, and RED ZEPPELIN stayed consistent. They didn't just get lucky once; they had zero high-priority or intermediate violations across multiple visits. This is what we call a clean plate—it means they aren't cutting corners on the important stuff that keeps your tummy happy. Oy gevalt, look at GULFSTREAM PARK THEME PARK CARTS in Broward County for a second. They managed to keep things perfect over 14 inspections covering roughly 3.5 years without a single high-priority violation. May they all wake up tomorrow with sechel.

🆕 New
Openings
123 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.
Listen, mein tateleh — Current Broward County tally: 123 opening signals. 3 announced via FB/news/operator signal. Current names include SABOR Y SAZON DE MI TIERRA LLC in Fort Lauderdale, RUNWAY RESTAURANT AND LOUNGE in Hollywood and MOTEK BY THE SEA in Fort Lauderdale. Dated opening signals run from 2026-07-14 to 2026-07-21. 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. Mija, in plain English: an opening signal starts with licensing or source-confirmed evidence, not wishful ribbon-cutting. Mein gott, qué locura.
