A high rating is a verdict on the food. A health grade is a verdict on the kitchen. This list is every Central Florida restaurant we track where the two disagree most — 45 graded F, 35 graded D, all rated 4.5 stars or higher. Every grade is calculated from each restaurant’s most recent Florida inspection; tap any name for the full violation record.
