Score
Low Risk

The Deck appears in inspection records seven times, starting in 2022. On Nov 12, 2025, the health department conducted the most recent visit. Diners can read the low risk label as a sign that recent inspections have gone well.

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

The pattern that stands out is “food-contact surface soiled with food debris”, which has been cited two times.

Compared to the broader Fort Lauderdale restaurant scene, where the average is 80, this is a stronger showing. There isn't much in the file that would give a customer pause.
