What happened after Food Paradise?

On "Bun-Believable," The High Dive Bar & Grill was featured for its San Diego dive-bar menu, with the segment centered on the kitchen's burger and bar-food lineup. The Morena Boulevard bar, which describes itself on its own site as San Diego's original upscale dive bar, continues to operate under the same name at the same address. Its own website, checked 2026-09-08 and last modified the same day, lists current hours and cocktail specials.

Casey Webb visited The High Dive, a sports bar and grill on Morena Boulevard in San Diego's Bay Park neighborhood, for the show's grilled fish taco special: whitefish topped with shredded cabbage and chipotle aioli, served with a choice of mango salsa or salsa fresca, per the restaurant's own menu description. The High Dive pairs a full bar carrying roughly 20 beers on tap with a food menu built around burgers, wings, and beach-style plates. Yelp's listing for the Morena Boulevard location, titled 'Updated July 2026,' shows customer reviews continuing through mid-2026, with an overall 4.6-star rating across more than 150 reviews as of that update, and lists the business as operating seven days a week.
