Kung Fu Tea/token Ramen in Tampa
Last inspected:
401 S Dale Mabry Hwy, Tampa, FL 33609Kung Fu Tea/Token Ramen in Tampa has experienced significant food safety enforcement tied to pest activity and temperature control failures. Four stop-use orders issued September 11–12, 2025 required the facility to clean and sanitize affected areas after an inspector observed rodent droppings on the floor under shelving and inside a floor drain in the back room area. The facility's 6 inspections on record between August 2023 and March 2026 revealed 60 total violations, averaging 10 per inspection — nearly double Florida's statewide average of 5.2. High-priority violations have centered on cold-holding temperature control (ready-to-eat foods held above 41°F in three separate inspections), hot-holding temperature failures (tapioca held at 120°F instead of the required 135°F minimum), and employee hygiene (a food worker observed entering from outside and handling food without washing hands or changing gloves). Intermediate violations included recurring issues with date marking of prepared foods held in coolers, missing handwashing supplies, equipment cleanliness (food buildup on a deli slicer), and absent written procedures for responding to vomiting or diarrheal events. The most recent inspection on March 23, 2026 documented 18 violations under operating without a valid food permit status, with the inspector noting that multiple cited violations were corrected on site during the inspection. Prior stop-use orders issued September 11, 2025 were released following a check-back inspection on September 12, 2025 after affected areas were cleaned and sanitized.
