What happened after Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives?

Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives featured Delight in downtown El Paso for the 2019-09-06 episode "Full of Surprises" (S30E12), spotlighting the deli's gourmet soups, salads, sandwiches and burgers alongside Salvadoran pupusas. Delight operated as a deli at 502 N Oregon St under owner Jose Gonzalez, according to El Paso Inc.'s original feature on the business. According to a Yelp listing for Delight, updated 2026-09, the restaurant is marked CLOSED, with a closure date of 2020-12-01 noted on the listing. Google Places' automated location match for this address instead returned a different, unrelated business, Nature's Delight, rather than Delight itself, and no updated address or successor business for the original deli could be confirmed from available records. A MenuPages listing separately archived the same 502 N Oregon Street address without noting the closure, reinforcing the location even though the business itself is no longer active there.
