TAMPA BAY - Three chain restaurants were among the ten eateries with perfect scores in their most recent inspection report. Local franchises of Pizza Hut, Domino's Pizza, and Jimmy John's Gourmet Sandwiches had no violations for the week of January 2.

In total, the Division of Hotels and Restaurants documented no violations inside three eateries in Manatee, two in Pinellas, two in Orange County and one in Hillsborough, one in Hernando, and one in Sarasota County.

The Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation (DBPR) through the Division of Hotels and Restaurants inspects restaurants throughout the state. Each week, abcactionnews.com analyzes the latest list of restaurant inspections to identify those that received zero-violations, thus obtaining the perfect score.

Abcactionnews.com's analysis is based on information posted on DBPR's Web site. State inspectors can return for multiple visits stemming from one inspection until problems are corrected. The lists below include seated and non-seated restaurants that received "zero" violations on the first visit of an inspection. This list does not include restaurants that have received zero violations after multiple visits for the same inspection. Each inspection report is a "snapshot" of conditions present at the time of the inspection.

The list below includes restaurants in Citrus, Hardee, Hernando, Highlands, Hillsborough, Manatee, Orange, Pasco, Pinellas, Polk, Sumter and Sarasota counties.
