What happened after Mystery Diners?

In "The Tipping Point" (aired 2012-10-19), Mystery Diners investigators looked into a head waiter at D'Cache restaurant in North Hollywood after the owner suspected the shared tip pool was being skimmed, shorting the rest of the serving staff. Hidden cameras recorded the waiter pulling cash from the shared tip pool for himself and giving away food and drinks to acquaintances without charging them, incidents the episode tied directly to lost revenue at the register. Investigators reviewed the specific clips with the owner, itemizing the tip money taken and the comped items line by line, and the episode showed the owner confronting the waiter with the footage during service.

According to Wikipedia's article on the series, citing its sources, later episodes carried an on-screen disclaimer noting that certain depicted events may have been staged or re-enacted for dramatic purposes. Google Places lists the business at 10717 Riverside Dr, North Hollywood, CA 91602, with a business status of permanently closed as checked. No dated news coverage, social-media account, or listing update naming a specific closure date was located for this address, and our records did not include a working website for the business. Google's listing for the location marks it permanently closed. The exact closure date is not known, nor is whether another business has since taken over the Riverside Drive address.
