What happened after Food Paradise?

The episode featured A.J.'s Seafood & Oyster Bar's fresh Gulf oysters and harbor-view seafood plates, served on a multi-level deck overlooking Destin Harbor's fishing fleet. A.J.'s is part of a small family of related "AJ's" restaurants in the Destin area, including locations on the Bayou, at Grayton Beach and an adjoining Oyster Shanty, according to its own website. A check of the business's website (ajsdestin.com) on 2026-09-09 found the site live, listing its drinks specials, live-music events schedule, gift shop and links to the Destin Fishing Rodeo and the AJ's Tin Cup Classic tournament it sponsors. Google's business listing for AJ's Seafood & Oyster Bar, checked the same day, marked the location operational. No closure, relocation or ownership change has surfaced since the episode aired.
