What happened after Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives?

On the September 2015 'Beef It Up' episode of Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives, Guy Fieri visited Buster's on 28th, a neighborhood beer bar in Minneapolis's Longfellow area known for its burger program. The segment featured the bar's signature burger and a side of onion rings, framed as comfort bar food paired with an extensive craft beer list. Buster's on 28th is a gastropub-style bar at 4204 28th Avenue South, reachable at (612) 729-0911 according to its Yelp listing. That Yelp listing, updated in August 2026, shows Buster's on 28th carrying 352 reviews and continuing to list the burger and onion rings featured on the show among its current menu items. Tripadvisor's listing for the bar, also showing 2026 activity, ranks it 98th of 1,135 Minneapolis restaurants. A direct check of the bar's own website on 2026-09-08 returned an access-denied response rather than any page content.
