What happened after You Gotta Eat Here!?
TVmaze's listing for the episode "Busters BBQ, Argo Cafe, Magnolia's Grill" (S1E5, aired 2012-08-12) says host John Catucci ate fish cakes at Magnolia's Grill in Lunenburg, Nova Scotia; the listing spells the town "Lunenberg." A Lunenburg Doc Fest page dated 2016-12-29 named Magnolia's Grill as a sponsor of the festival and gave its address as 128 Montague Street, with the website magnolias-grill.com. The same page relayed Fodor's description of the restaurant as a blend of Nova Scotian and Deep South cooking, with fish cakes, creole peanut soup and pulled pork on the menu, and said the small dining room fills quickly. A Google Maps listing for Magnolia's Grill at 128 Montague Street, Lunenburg, checked on 2026-10-19, marks the business as permanently closed. The listing gives no closing date.
