What happened after Food Paradise?
On Food Paradise's 'Hamburger Paradise 3' (S5E3), Rockit Burger Bar was featured for its 'Mac&Cheese Attack' burger, a build previously highlighted on NBC's Today Show, alongside brick-oven flatbread pizzas and specialty cocktails. The restaurant operated as a spin-off of River North's Rockit Bar & Grill, located in Chicago's Wrigleyville neighborhood directly across from Wrigley Field. The Google Places record initially matched to this batch line pointed to Rockit Ranch Productions' corporate office rather than the restaurant itself, and that record's own site check showed only 2024-dated content; the restaurant's actual address, 3700 N Clark St, was located separately. A Yelp listing for Rockit Burger Bar, updated June 2026, marks the location as permanently closed, and the same brand's sister restaurant, Rockit Bar & Grill, carries a similarly dated closed listing.
