What happened after Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives?

Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives visited this Plaza Midwood seafood restaurant on "Indulgent Dishes" (aired 2015-05-22), where the show spotlighted its Asian-fusion seafood menu; online reviewers have separately praised dishes like blackened mahi tacos. Krazy Fish operated as a seafood restaurant, bar and grill at 2501 Central Ave in Charlotte's Plaza Midwood neighborhood. A Yelp listing updated in June 2026 marks the business permanently closed. The blog Unpretentious Palate reported that the Plaza Midwood restaurant had closed and that the space was being taken over by Morningside Pub, described as a private club serving beer, wine and liquor with no food service. Neither source gives an exact closure date, though other online references point to a closure some years before the 2026 listing update.

In the same "Takeout: Cross-Country Delivery" episode (aired 2020-05-29), Guy Fieri checked in with Krazy Fish, a Plaza Midwood restaurant in Charlotte blending Southern, Mexican, and American influences, according to WCNC. On the restaurant's original DDD visit, Fieri sampled its gumbo, made with cactus instead of okra, and its Seafood Diablo, a cream-based dish with turmeric rather than tomato and chili, per WCNC.
