High Risk

Across the available record, A La Folie has 11 inspections on file, the first dated 2023. The most recent visit was on Dec 17, 2025. High risk usually means inspectors flagged either critical violations or a stack of smaller ones.

Recent visits have produced comparable findings, with counts hovering near 12 violations per visit.

Across the inspection history, “no proof provided that food employees are informed” is the issue that surfaces most often, recorded six times.

Compared to other Miami Beach restaurants (averaging 69), there's room to close the gap. Taken together, the history suggests a facility that has struggled with consistency.
