What happened after Man v. Food?

Beltline Bar in Grand Rapids describes itself as the originator of the wet burrito, a smothered, cheese-topped burrito style now common across West Michigan, according to the restaurant's own site. Man v. Food host Casey Webb visited the Mexican-style cafe for the dish during the show's Grand Rapids stop, which aired February 12, 2018. Beltline Bar has operated at its 28th Street SE location since 1953 and says it has served nearly 6 million orders of the wet burrito, per beltlinebar.com. The restaurant has also been recognized locally as Grand Rapids' best burrito for nine consecutive years, according to its own promotional materials. In September 2026, Beltline Bar's Yelp listing showed customer reviews and an active online-ordering system through SpotOn, and the restaurant's website separately listed current hours and a loyalty program, per beltlinebar.com and Yelp.
