Sunoco in Miami

2395 Nw 119th St, Miami, FL 33167

Overview

This Miami convenience store operated by Sunoco had four FDACS inspections on record from October 2024 through September 2025, documenting 41 total violations before closure. The cafe portion of the facility was shut down on September 30, 2025, when the owner requested to transition operations to a DBPR-permitted firm, with the establishment type redesignated accordingly.

Critical deficiencies emerged across multiple inspections. The person in charge consistently could not correctly answer questions relating to foodborne illness prevention, a Priority Foundation violation appearing in all three operational inspections (October 2024, September 11, and September 18, 2025). The establishment lacked written procedures for employee response to vomit and diarrhea events across the same three inspections. Food temperature measuring devices were absent or inaccessible in October 2024 and September 11 inspections — no probe thermometer was available for checking internal food temperatures, and a walk-in cooler lacked an ambient air thermometer. Sanitizer test strips for measuring chlorine concentration were not available during the October 2024 and September 11 inspections. On September 11, the facility was cited for operating with an expired food permit, triggering a warning that failure to provide hot water within 30 days could result in administrative action. Hand towels were not present at the handwashing sink during the September 11 inspection but were provided on site (corrected) at that time. The October 2024 inspection documented multiple fruit flies observed at the mop sink drain in the backroom. The final inspection on September 30, 2025 was a consultation visit with no violations cited, conducted at the time the cafe closure was formalized.
