Winn Dixie

Not a fan of Winn Dixie, but had to stop for milk, and this was on the way.
Middle of the afternoon and only two cashiers open. There were lines of 4 – 5 people on each and yet, no other personnel was called to assist. There was even a group of chairs talking at one of the un open stations.
Never returning.

winn dixie keeps living up to its reputation as a last option when publix is closed. tried to order a sub (big mistake). the person in the deli did not know what horseradish was and just kept pointing at different items. i think that if your work in the service industry you should try to speak a little english? decided that sub was bad idea. went on to pay for other items and only one cashier was open. on christmas eve? really? went to the automated cashier and experience was just as bad. they just don’t care.

This is one of the worst Winn Dixies in Miami. They are always short staffed, out of stock, and dirty. Here’s a bonus tip: unlike other Winn Dixies, they do NOT accept competitors coupons. If you’re looking for groceries, go to Publix instead.

I stopped by this Winn Dixie today because i needed two grocery items for dinner and was driving right in front of it. I should have gone with my instincts and kept driving to Publix, even though it was out of the way. Why? Because i had to go to Publix anyway.
This Winn Dixie is absolutely disgusting. As soon as you walk in the stench is enough to make you want to leave.
The flies around the back of the store are a serious problem.
Don’t come here expecting fresh produce (why did i think there would be anything but rock hard avocados here?) and you best not expect any quality organic products. Why, oh why was I expecting to find organic butter here?!
Then comes the checkout…
There were two regular registers open with at least five people with full carts in each line. My only option was the self checkout. After waiting behind a couple of people, the self checkout machine froze.
I politely asked the kid whose parents were allowing her to play with the register as if she was at Wanna-​do City to allow me to use the machine for its intended purpose… and it too wasn’t working properly. At this point i was fed up and thinking of just walking out of the store, but there was an employee actually around to help and he fixed whatever the problem was then he said something about, «Next time you come in…» to which i quickly replied that i won’t have to worry about that because I’m never coming back.
He asked why.
To be honest, i wish i had taken the time to tell him what was wrong with the store, but i didn’t have the half hour to spare and i doubt it would have made a difference.
Instead i took the time to write a Unilocal review to warn anyone considering this disgusting store.

Not the luxury of the high end supermarkets that I also enjoy but I pay more for but for a quick buy I can’t complain, always good customer service and good weekly specials. One of the oldest in the area, not great but good enough for quick, small shopping list.

1 cashier at 10 pm not a great idea the self check outs suck you spend more time taking the things out the bag then you would just making the line but then the lines is huge and only 1 cashier horrible avoid going here late no employees at all

Absolutely disgusting super market. Once you walk in you are overcome with stench and there are flies everywhere especially in the meat section. Dreaded my visit there. I will definitely never step foot in there again.

Most of the experiences I’ve had with Winn-​Dixie, there’s always been something that has pushed me away. And I think it’s the way they are maintained because I often feel sick when I go and it’s not always the same location. If you live in an area with a Publix, then go to Publix.

1 star for cleanliness. No joke people. This is really one of the cleanest Winn-Dixie’s that I have been to
1 star for variety. This supermarket pretty much has everything. From bakery to deli to free cholesterol test? lol yes, even that sometimes.
1 star for service. We were in and out extremely fast and I can always appreciate that as no one wants to be grocery shopping forever! Whether it’s self-​checkout or making a line, it’s easy.
1 star for location. Yeah, they situated in a relatively small strip mall but it has everything one needs so you can kill two birds with one stone. Nice!
Only thing, parking can be a bit terrible. They have plenty but it’s just people… no sorry, Miami people, can’t drive in tight spaces so drive with caution.

For some reason, it’s not leting me «roll over the stars» but I give this Winn Dixie 4 and ½ stars. I would give it a five but I do find that there is some produce that is not available there.
I have been coming to this Winn Dixie since I moved to the area in 1999 and I have actually seen it get better not deteriorate like posted on one of the reviews. The previous manager never seemed to be able to accept suggestions well. The current manager, Jose is always polite and interested in hearing my suggestions and even my complaints. He actually has stood by the cashier to cheer me on when using my multiple coupons.
At one point, the refrigerators/​freezers and the conditioners were acting up and I complained about the heat and the fact that some food was not available because of it and he gave me a blanket raincheck for my next purchase since they had had a power outage that had messed up the refrigeration in the store. Two days later, all was fixed and I was able to purchase my sale items even though the sales were done.
Several times, when looking for a particular product and discovered that they didn’t carry it, I asked the manager to consider carrying it and voila, it was there on my next visit.
It just seems like they are interested in accomodating the customer. The store is always clean, the shelves are stocked and organized, even their bathrooms are kept clean and orderly. I find that the meats there are always excellent and who can beat buy one get one free London Broil?

This is one of the cleanest winn-​dixies i’ve ever been to and its always a pleasure shopping here! even though thats publix’s motto. But publix is way to packed all the time. at this winn-​dixie, there’s always a parking space up front :)

At this location the staff is friendly and willing to help. I have been there on different times (ranging morning to night) and never had issues. My only pet peeve is that the produce doesnt seem to last as long when I get them at other supermarkets, do I tend to stay away from that area unless it’s something I will be using right away. The rewards card is a plus as you can accumulate discounts towards the Shell Gas located right in front of it! they come with good deals from time to time so you need to keep your eyes open. I like the convenience that it opens till 11 and most holidays.

I’ve lived in front of this Winn Dixie my whole life, and I’ve seen it deteriorate. So sad. :(
It’s good for just picking up quick items, but don’t get produce here! Their produce selection is terrible and it’s almost always dirty.
