Recent Florida DBPR inspection activity at Pasco County restaurants. Each entry below is a specific historical inspection event from the public record.

InspectFL Team · Mar 1, 2026 · Updated Apr 27, 2026
Snapshot from April 27, 2026. Health Scores update weekly (Sunday night) and may have shifted since this article was published. Inspection data itself updates daily; the headline score reflects a weekly weighted recompute. The official DBPR record at myfloridalicense.com is the authoritative source for any specific restaurant.

Pasco County’s restaurant scene reflects the county’s mix — fast-growing master-planned communities in Wesley Chapel and Land O’ Lakes, the older coastal corridor through Holiday and New Port Richey, and the rural-to-suburban transition through Zephyrhills and Dade City. Florida DBPR currently tracks 1,083 active Pasco County restaurants.

This article reports on specific historical inspection events from DBPR’s public record. Each card below describes a particular inspection — a permanent fact about a regulatory event — rather than a current judgment about the restaurant. Restaurants improve and decline over time, and grades change as new inspections come in. For the current InspectFL Health Score on any specific establishment, click through to its restaurant page; for the authoritative inspection report, see myfloridalicense.com.

How to read this: Every inspection card is anchored to a date and a DBPR disposition (such as "Warning Issued" or "Inspection Completed - No Further Action"). That inspection event is part of the public record — it happened on the date listed regardless of any subsequent inspections. The restaurant's overall grade may have shifted since.

Understanding the DBPR Inspection Process

Florida’s Division of Hotels and Restaurants (DHR) under DBPR conducts unannounced inspections of every licensed food service establishment in the state, typically one to four times per year depending on risk category.

When an inspector finds something, the disposition tells you what happens next:

  • Inspection Completed - No Further Action — the establishment was compliant, with any issues resolved during the visit
  • Call Back - Complied — a previous warning was issued, and a follow-up confirms the issue is fixed
  • Warning Issued — the establishment received notice that issues must be corrected; a callback follows
  • Administrative complaint recommended — the inspector escalated to formal regulatory action; the restaurant typically remains open during the process
  • Emergency order recommended — the inspector identified a severe public health hazard

The cards above describe specific inspection events. Each one happened on the date listed and is part of the official public record at myfloridalicense.com.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many restaurants are in Pasco County?

Florida DBPR currently tracks 1,083 active Pasco County restaurants.

How often are restaurants inspected?

Most sit-down and quick-service restaurants are inspected one to four times per year depending on risk category. Establishments with serious findings can be re-inspected within a few days as part of the DBPR callback process.

Where can I see the official DBPR inspection report?

The authoritative inspection record for any licensed Florida food service establishment is published by Florida DBPR at myfloridalicense.com.

What does “Warning Issued” mean on an inspection?

It means the inspector documented findings serious enough to require formal correction. The restaurant typically receives a callback inspection within a few days to weeks; if the issues are corrected, the disposition becomes “Call Back - Complied.”

Where does this data come from?

All inspection data is sourced from Florida DBPR (Department of Business and Professional Regulation) public records. The InspectFL Health Score is our own 0-100 calculation based on violation severity, frequency, and recency — it is not an official DBPR rating.
