What happened after Food Paradise?

Food Paradise's "Open 24 Hours" episode featured Marina Variety Store Restaurant, listed at 9 Lockwood Drive in Charleston, South Carolina. The business's own web domain, thevarietystorerestaurantandsaltymikes.com, paired the Marina Variety Store name with a second business, Salty Mike's, suggesting the two once operated together at the same address, though no dated source confirms the exact relationship. A Google Places record for the restaurant lists its business status as permanently closed. Checked on 2026-09-09, the website returned a "page not found" response rather than any working restaurant page, a result consistent with the closed status shown in the Google Places record. No additional independent source describing the closure, such as news coverage or a business announcement, was found for this entry.
