What happened after Food Paradise?

The episode (S14E11, 'Fire It Up') featured Pizza Loves Emily, a pizzeria known for combining a New York-style 'grandma' pie with a Detroit-style crust, along with small plates and pasta. The brand now operates simply as Emily, with locations in Clinton Hill, Brooklyn, and Manhattan's West Village; the West Village location opened in 2017 and sits at 35 Downing St. According to the restaurant's website (pizzalovesemily.com), checked 2026-09-08, the West Village location's hours and reservation page are current, with online ordering and private-event booking both active. Google Places, checked the same day, lists the business as operational at 35 Downing St, matching the location tied to the restaurant. No reporting on a closure or sale for the West Village location turned up in the sources reviewed, and the brand's own site continues to promote it as an active pizzeria.
