What happened after Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives?

Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives visited Grubstak in the "All Kinds of Comfort" episode, which aired 2018-02-18, showcasing the restaurant's fast-casual "stak-able" format of layered sandwiches, bowls, and shakes built around customizable stacked ingredients. According to an AccessWire press release announcing the restaurant's launch, Grubstak opened in downtown Gilbert's Heritage Square in 2016 as a build-your-own fast-casual concept founded by Colton Grubb. A Triple D episode tracker, tripledmap.com, lists the Gilbert location at 384 N Gilbert Rd as closed, and Food Network's own restaurant directory carries no active page for that address. According to tripledmap.com, the business briefly added a second location in Chandler before that location also closed. The address and coordinates associated with this record in prior location data pointed to the SanTan Village shopping center, which does not correspond to any confirmed Grubstak location; the restaurant's documented address was 384 N Gilbert Rd, Gilbert, Arizona.
