What happened after Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives?

For the dinner-and-dessert takeout episode, Guy Fieri ordered from Momocho, chef-owner Eric Williams' modern Mexican restaurant in Cleveland's Ohio City neighborhood, which Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives has visited four times, more than any other Ohio restaurant, according to Tasting Table. The segment revisited Momocho's build-your-own guacamole flights and its machaca, a coffee-and-chile-braised beef brisket. Momocho, which Williams opened in 2006, is known for reworking traditional Mexican dishes with inventive, seasonal presentations.

On Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives episode 'Twists And Traditions' (aired 2010-03-22), the show featured Momocho's modern take on Mexican cooking, including a tableside guacamole preparation and reworked street-food classics served in a colorful dining room. The restaurant is a modern Mexican spot in Cleveland's Ohio City neighborhood, offering full-service dining, a seasonal patio, and walk-in seating with no reservations taken. According to a Yelp listing updated September 2026, Momocho remains active at 1835 Fulton Road, with more than 1,000 reviews and recent photos posted alongside current hours -- Monday through Thursday 4pm to 9pm, Friday and Saturday 4pm to 10pm, closed Sunday. The restaurant's own website, momocho.com, was reachable when checked on 2026-09-08 but consists of a single splash-page entry screen, with no menu, hours, or dated content of its own. Online ordering with contactless payment was listed as available through the Yelp page.
