These Coral Springs restaurants aced their health inspections in March
Looking for a new restaurant to try, but don’t know where to start? Several locally owned establishments passed their state inspection with flying colors.
Soon-to-open restaurants and a caterer meeting their final licensing requirements took center stage in early-March inspections, and one longtime favorite for Indian cuisine scored well, too.
Here are the best-scoring restaurants in Coral Springs through mid-March:
Kabaya Catering (10374 Sample Road)
The new catering company, located in the Coral Center shopping plaza, passed its food licensing inspection with ease. Inspectors did not note any violations in their March 10 report.
Mitch’s Downtown Bagels (3334 N. University Drive, Suite 8)
One of the most-anticipated new additions to the Cornerstone Complex, the elevated New York-style café passed its first inspection without issue on March 11. The eatery will have its soft-launch opening later this month.
The restaurant will serve a variety of locally made bagels and spreads, plus popular dishes such as matzo ball soup, French toast, omelettes and pastrami sandwiches.
Salma’s Kitchen (9817 W. Sample Road)
The family-owned halal Indian-Pakistani restaurant received one basic violation during its routine inspection on March 4. Inspectors observed a plastic single service bowl used as a scoop for yogurt.
Online reviewers’ favorite dishes include chicken biryani and mutton curry, as well as traditional desserts such as zarda (sweet rice) and kulfi (ice cream). Dining options include eat-in, takeout or delivery.
How Ya Dough’n (3420 N. University Drive)
Another highly anticipated Cornerstone Complex newcomer passed its licensing inspection on March 13. The sourdough pizza sensation had one intermediate violation, as the on-site staff did not have proof of their food manager certification.
How Ya Dough’n began as a pet project during the COVID-19 pandemic lockdowns, when Boca Raton couple Garett and Gabby Goodman began sharing their homemade artisan pizzas with their neighbors. Within the year, a few requests turned into hundreds, and the artisan creations became a viral award-winning sensation. Prices range from $16 to $28 per pie.
