Good News
Fresh Bites Cafe in Mission Bay wins this week with a perfect inspection – zero violations.
The Chipotle on Glades near Town Center and Gretl’s Bistro in East Boca were also perfect.

There were a few others in the “pretty good” category including Tijuana Flats on Powerline and Dominic’s on Glades by the Turnpike, both with 3 minor violations. We also see a licensing inspection for what we think is a new Japanese restaurant, Fuji Yama, on SW 18th near Outback Steakhouse. Outback is also in the report with 5 violations, 1 high priority.
Boca Indian Grill in Mission Bay had 4 violations, 2 high priority.
Cheesecake Factory at Town Center did well with 4 minor violations, particularly good when you consider the size and complexity of the place.
