What happened after Food Paradise?

Food Paradise's "Cheat Day" episode featured Quality Italian, an Italian restaurant near Central Park South that shares ownership with sibling venues Quality Meats and Quality Bistro. The restaurant occupies 57 West 57th Street in Manhattan and operates as a full-service dining room with private-event space. According to Quality Italian's website, checked 2026-09-08, the page listed the same 57 West 57th Street address and 212.390.1111 phone number, along with active links for menus, private events, and hours and location. The site's navigation also pointed to its sister restaurants, Quality Meats and Quality Bistro, consistent with the group's continued operation.

The page also carried a link for guests looking for the group's separate Denver location, underscoring that Quality Italian continues to operate as part of a small multi-city restaurant company. No additional dated coverage beyond the business's own website was located for this record.
