Is Emerald Hills Country Club Still Open? Mystery Diners Update
Mystery Diners, Season 10 Hollywood, Florida
Current status
As of October 2026, Emerald Hills Country Club is listed open on Yelp, reviewed by our team on September 14, 2026; not yet independently confirmed through direct contact.
What the source shows: Yelp's restaurant-specific listing for The Club at Emerald Hills' dining room (distinct from the golf-course listing) was updated as recently as June 2026 with no closure flag and active reviews of the clubhouse food service. The club's own site continues to describe an operating clubhouse restaurant, grill and bar open to the public alongside the golf course. How we decide a status →

What happened after Mystery Diners?
In "Missing Links" (Mystery Diners, Food Network, S10E8, aired 2015-07-22), according to Food Network's episode synopsis, Jeff, the general manager of Emerald Hills Golf Course in Hollywood, Florida, told investigator Charles Stiles that he had been fielding complaints about non-members playing the course for free. Charles sent Mystery Diners operatives Jamie and Brianna in undercover, and Food Network's synopsis reports their investigation turned up a separate problem inside the club's dining room. Charles then coached the club's management on tightening both course access and dining-room practices.
Wikipedia's article on Mystery Diners, citing its sources, describes the series as staged and scripted rather than an unscripted documentary. Separately, Wikipedia's article on country clubs, revised 2026-08-09, describes a country club generically as a privately owned membership club combining recreational sports such as golf with dining and social facilities, though it says nothing about this specific club. The club's own website, at theclubatemeraldhills.com, still loads as of a 2026-09-09 check but carries a copyright date of 2020 and no 2026-dated content, and Google Places lists the business as operational with no confirming current-activity signal found. This research pass located no dated source, positive or negative, resolving the club's present-day status.
