Is Off Street Cafe Still Open? Restaurant: Impossible (FN) Update

Part 1 — Season 15, Episode 10 Aired August 17, 2019

Restaurant: Impossible (Food Network) returned to Off Street Café in Cerritos, California, for the episode 'Revisited: Learning Leadership' (S15E10), which aired 2019-08-17. According to the Los Cerritos Community News, which previewed the visit on 2019-06-13, Robert Irvine's team had originally overhauled the family-owned café — then co-run by former in-laws Robin and Rose — in a Season 2 episode that aired 2011-09-14, repainting the dining room and reworking the dinner menu around the restaurant's home-cooked, country-style food. The 2019 follow-up centered on how leadership and decision-making had evolved at the restaurant in the years since that original two-day makeover. The Los Cerritos Community News reported that Irvine's crew was returning to Cerritos for the segment after an eight-year gap.

Part 2 — Season 2, Episode 9 Aired September 14, 2011

Restaurant: Impossible (Food Network) featured Off Street Cafe, a breakfast-and-lunch restaurant at 11020 Artesia Blvd in Cerritos, California, in the Season 2 episode "Off Street Cafe," which aired September 14, 2011. As shown in the episode, the restaurant was working through inconsistent food quality and a dated dining room that Robert Irvine's team judged were holding back an otherwise loyal daytime crowd. The team's renovation followed the show's standard format: refreshing the dining room's decor, focusing the menu on a shorter list of breakfast and lunch dishes, and retraining kitchen staff on consistent execution, before a relaunch service meant to reset the restaurant's daily routine.

Unlike many restaurants that appeared on the show, Off Street Cafe continued operating well beyond its television appearance. The restaurant maintains its own website, which lists current hours of 7 a.m. to 2 p.m. daily at the Artesia Boulevard address, provides an active link for online ordering, and links out to active Facebook and Instagram accounts; the site's footer carries a 2026 copyright date. That business-operated website, combined with the restaurant's continuing use of the same address and phone number across multiple third-party listings, is treated here as strong, business-sourced evidence that Off Street Cafe remains open for business.

No indication of a name change, ownership change, or relocation was found; the restaurant appears to be operating under the same name and at the same address as when it was featured on Restaurant: Impossible. No dated closure notice, permanently-closed maps listing, or negative news coverage was located for this restaurant during this research pass. The open status here is based on the restaurant's own official website as a single official source describing current operations. No other Restaurant: Impossible or Food Network appearances tied to this address were identified.
