Introduction to Perfect Inspections
The cleanliness competition among South Florida restaurants and food trucks has seen a notable trend. Palm Beach County eateries outshined their Broward County counterparts in achieving perfect inspections, with a significant difference in the total tally of spotless kitchens.
Understanding the Inspection Process
These “gold-star” restaurants and food trucks achieved perfect scores in their April 2025 inspections, meaning not a single violation, whether minor, intermediate, or high-priority, was found during the surprise visits from Florida safety and sanitation inspectors. Typically, eateries are inspected at random every six months to a year, and they are not required to publicly disclose their results.
Breakdown by County
Last month, 35 Broward County eateries managed to earn perfect scores. In contrast, Palm Beach County saw 49 establishments pass their inspections without any incidents. This significant difference highlights the emphasis on cleanliness and safety in Palm Beach County eateries.
Compilation of Perfect Scores
The list of perfect inspections has been compiled and sorted by city for ease of reference. Establishments without physical addresses on their Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation inspection reports and those that are not restaurants, food trucks, flea market stalls, or food hall vendors have been excluded from the list. If a city is not listed, it means either no restaurants were inspected that month, or none achieved a perfect score.
The Importance of Cleanliness
The cleanliness of a restaurant or food truck is paramount for the health and safety of its patrons. Achieving a perfect score on an inspection is a testament to the hard work and dedication of the establishment’s staff. It also provides customers with peace of mind when dining out.
