What happened after You Gotta Eat Here!?

Motor Burger in Windsor, Ontario, appeared on the You Gotta Eat Here! episode that aired 2013-05-10. TheTVDB's synopsis says the restaurant was named for Windsor's car culture, with menu items such as the Lamb-orghini, Fire-Bird and Autostrada. Its own website, thisismotor.com (viewed 2026-10-20, with a 2021 copyright line), says the brand began in Windsor in 2009, with the Motor Craft Ales brewery in the basement, and opened a Detroit location in 2019 at the Detroit Shipping Company. CTV Windsor reported on 2021-12-15 that the Erie Street restaurant at 888 Erie Street East had been closed for weeks, that the owners were leaving Erie Street to concentrate on the Detroit restaurant, and that a vegan comfort-food restaurant called Nooch was taking over the space. A public Google Maps listing for Motor Burger at that address, checked 2026-10-19, is marked permanently closed.
