The Fresh Market # in Camino Real Boca Raton

Last inspected:

100 W, Camino Real Boca Raton, FL 33432
Overview

The Fresh Market #0028 in Boca Raton has been inspected four times on record between October 2022 and May 2025, with 16 total violations documented. Two focused inspections in May 2025 addressed prior violations, with the most recent inspection on May 23, 2025 finding no new violations after corrections were made to issues identified in a previous complaint request. Two comprehensive inspections conducted on the same day in October 2022 revealed significant food safety gaps. Temperature control violations were the primary concern: internal temperatures of ready-to-eat foods including seafood salads, roasted chicken salad, and sushi held in cold cases ranged from 44°F to 52°F, well above the required 41°F maximum. The facility corrected these violations during inspection by placing out-of-temperature foods in a blast chiller or discarding them. Chemical storage violations were also documented in the produce department, where drain cleaner gel and chlorine bottles were stored on a shelf directly above food containers; chemicals were removed during the inspection. Systemic management gaps included the person in charge being unable to correctly answer questions about foodborne disease transmission, symptoms, and employee exclusion protocols. The facility lacked written procedures for responding to vomiting and diarrheal incidents. A juice labeling violation was also cited for packaged juice that was not labeled with required warning statements under FDA regulations. A minor pest finding documented a few small flies observed in the produce department. These violations were classified as priority (imminent hazard) and priority foundation (systemic management), the two most serious FDACS categories.
