What happened after Food Paradise?

5280 Burger Bar appeared in Food Paradise's "Apps Download" episode (S14E6). It is a downtown Denver burger restaurant in the 16th Street Mall retail corridor, known for a build-your-own burger menu and additional locations around the metro area. A September 2026 data pull from Google Places lists the 16th Street Mall location's business status as temporarily closed, while this record's direct check of the restaurant's own website returned only an access-blocked response rather than a clear signal either way. A follow-up web search found Yelp, Tripadvisor, and Facebook pages for the business still active with no permanent-closure flag in that same September 2026 check, so the current status of this location could not be confirmed one way or the other in this pass.
