What happened after You Gotta Eat Here!?

Staxx Burger Chicken & Waffle House was the Hamilton, Ontario stop in the 2015-06-19 episode of You Gotta Eat Here! (season 4, episode 21), where, according to TheTVDB's listing, host John Catucci met his match in waffles. The episode paired it with Puckett's Gro and Restaurant in Tennessee and Ferris' Oyster Bar and Grill in Victoria. Google's data places the restaurant at 275 King St E in Hamilton, and its name describes a menu built around burgers, fried chicken and waffles. A Google Maps listing for Staxx Burger Chicken & Waffle House at that address, viewed on 2026-10-19, marks the business as permanently closed. Hamilton City Magazine's open-and-closed roundup dated 2025-02-27 did not list the restaurant, and no dated news report of its closing was found, so the date it stopped operating is not known from the sources read.
