12101 S Dixie Hwy, Miami, FL 33156

Overview

Pinecrest Bakery in Miami has 4 inspections on record between April 2023 and December 2025, accumulating 9 total violations. A repeat violation for time-temperature control of ready-to-eat products was documented at the most recent inspection on December 3, 2025—ham, cheese, diced tomatoes, and sliced pork held at the sandwich preparation station under time as a public health control were not marked with removal times to indicate the 4-hour limit. The inspector noted the products were marked with required times during the inspection. A backflow prevention device was also found missing at y-splitters located at the mop sink. The facility received a notice that it has 90 calendar days to eliminate a restroom that opens into the food service area, with a warning that failure to comply may result in a stop-use order on all food-related equipment in that area. Two focused inspections in January and May 2024 resulted in zero violations after prior issues were addressed. The April 2023 inspection cited a manual ware-washing sanitizer concentration of 0 ppm and a hand-washing sink without paper towels—both corrected on site during inspection.
