Low Risk

Ella Cafe appears in inspection records six times, starting in 2023. The most recent report on file is from Aug 25, 2025. When a facility lands in the low risk tier, it usually means nothing alarming showed up at the most recent visit.

There hasn't been much movement either way: counts have stayed near two violations per visit across recent inspections.

“No paper towels” accounts for the largest share of issues, appearing two times across the record.

That falls roughly in the middle of the pack for Davie restaurants. The file should reassure diners considering a visit.
