Pascal Restaurant in Fort Myers
Last inspected:
2529 Simpson St, Fort Myers, FL 33901Pascal Restaurant in Fort Myers has compiled a troubling compliance record marked by severe and recurring violations across its 22 inspections since 2016. The facility has averaged 3.5 violations per inspection, below the statewide average of 5.2, but the nature and frequency of high-priority violations paint a different picture. Employee health policy violations appeared in at least 5 inspections, proper cooking temperature violations in at least 4, handwashing violations in at least 4, and food contact surface violations in at least 5. These are among the most serious categories of food safety violations — failures in employee health protocols and cooking temperatures directly threaten the safety of served food.
The two most recent inspections document a sharp escalation in violation density and severity. The December 19, 2025 inspection uncovered 21 violations including one high-priority violation each for employee health policy, proper cooking temperatures, food contact surfaces, and handwashing procedures — the same core failures documented repeatedly. The March 11, 2026 inspection followed with 18 violations including identical high-priority categories. The March 11 disposition was "Call Back - Admin. complaint recommended," signaling that a formal administrative complaint has been recommended to the state — a step above routine warning issuance that indicates consideration of formal disciplinary action. No emergency closures are on record, but the pattern of unresolved systemic failures across employee training, temperature control, and facility maintenance suggests persistent management awareness or capability deficits.
