Mixed Health Record
How is this score calculated? →PAYA in MIAMI BEACH currently holds an InspectFL Health Score of 80.1 out of 100 — a C grade — a noticeable pattern of violations across recent inspections.

Across those visits, inspectors documented 14 total violations — 3 critical, 3 major, 8 minor.
What’s powering this page
InspectFL reorganizes public DBPR inspection records into a page you can actually scan. When imported inspector observations are available, they appear inline. Otherwise, the page falls back to violation categories plus the official DBPR record.
- •Imported DBPR observations appear directly inside inspection entries when available.
- •When note coverage is missing, the official violation record still stays visible.

*Scores are calculated by InspectFL based on public DBPR inspection data and are not official state ratings.
Inspection History
Read the newest inspection first, then scan for patterns. Repeated high-priority findings matter more than one isolated bad day.
