Overview

Charley's Philly Steaks in Jacksonville operates as a permanent food service establishment with 28 seats licensed by both DBPR and FDACS. The facility recorded 9 inspections and 11 total violations between 2023 and February 2026. On August 20, 2025, an FDACS inspection identified 8 violations, including multiple high-priority findings: raw shrimp displayed directly over ready-to-eat crab sticks, raw turkey bacon stacked directly over raw pork bacon, raw ground turkey positioned directly over raw pork brats, and a retail sliced meats cooler holding items at temperatures between 44°F and 56°F when 41°F or below is required. Honey ham, provolone, rotisserie chicken breast, and hot honey ham were among products measured at unsafe temperatures; all were voluntarily destroyed. That same inspection also issued a stop-use order for unsanitary equipment and identified fryer cleaner stored directly over single-use food trays. A second stop-use order was issued for unsanitary equipment on August 21, 2025, and a stop-sale order on August 20 for adulterated time/temperature control food—the product was voluntarily destroyed by management and witnessed by the inspector. The equipment was subsequently repaired, checked, and released. Three focused inspections conducted between August 2025 and February 2026 resulted in zero violations, including a check-back release inspection on August 21, 2025, which confirmed the retail sliced meats cooler was maintaining 41°F or lower. The most recent inspection on February 18, 2026 was a focused inspection with zero violations.
