What happened after Man v. Food?
On Man v. Food, Adam Richman visited Gasthof zur Gemütlichkeit, a German restaurant in northeast Minneapolis with Mario's Keller Bar downstairs, to sample the restaurant's schnitzel and other German fare alongside the bar's beer list. Gasthof zur Gemütlichkeit operated a full-service German restaurant and bar at 2300 University Ave NE for years, known locally for its Oktoberfest events. According to Yelp, whose listing was updated in August 2026, the restaurant is closed, matching Google's listing for the same address, which marks it permanently closed. The restaurant's own website still loads but its photo galleries stop at Oktoberfest 2019, with no newer dated content, indicating the site was left up after the restaurant stopped operating rather than serving as evidence of current business.
