What happened after Best Thing I Ever Ate?
The 'Chocolate' episode featured a Mexican chocolate-inflected dish from Loteria Grill, a Mexican restaurant at 4228 West Pico Boulevard in the Mid-City area of Los Angeles. Loteria Grill's own website, loteriagrill.com, accessed 2026-09-08, listed the Pico Boulevard location's current hours, including Monday, Thursday, and Friday from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. and Sunday from 1 p.m. to 8 p.m., distinguishing it from a separate, second Loteria Grill address that the same site lists as closed. Older Yelp listings for the Pico Boulevard address include one page still marked closed, but the restaurant's own current site shows the location operating on an active schedule. Third-party delivery pages for the same Pico Boulevard address, including Grubhub and DoorDash listings found in the same search, also show active online ordering, reinforcing that the location is operating rather than shuttered. No relocation or ownership-change reports were found.
