What happened after Food Paradise?

On "Bun-Believable," Fancy's on Fifth Oyster Dive & Burger Bar appeared as a Birmingham, Alabama gastropub combining a raw oyster bar with build-your-own burgers, with the episode focused on the kitchen's burger lineup. The restaurant operated on 41st Street South in Birmingham's Forest Park area, pairing a casual bar atmosphere with a full oyster and seafood menu. A Google Places listing checked 2026-09-08 lists Fancy's on Fifth as permanently closed. The restaurant's former domain, fancyson5th.com, no longer hosts the business's site; when checked the same day it instead served unrelated sports-betting content, with no trace of the original restaurant's pages remaining. No successor restaurant is listed at the same Birmingham address.
