What happened after Food Paradise?

Food Paradise's 2012 'Meatloaf Paradise' episode featured Datz's meatloaf preparation as part of the show's tour of meatloaf specialists. Datz Delicatessen operated as a scratch-kitchen delicatessen-style restaurant in South Tampa. According to a Google Places listing, the MacDill Avenue location in Tampa is permanently closed. The business's own website, datztampa.com, checked on 2026-09-08, no longer lists a Tampa address; it promotes locations only in "St. Pete" and "St. Petersburg," alongside an active online ordering system and a rewards app. The site's page content and copyright notice are dated 2026, showing the domain is actively maintained. Together, the Places listing and the site's current St. Petersburg-only locations indicate the Datz brand continues operating, but from St. Petersburg rather than the original Tampa address featured on the show.
