What happened after Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives?

Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives stopped at Rasta Pasta for the 'Isle-Talian' episode, aired 2015-12-04, an island-meets-Italian theme pairing Caribbean and Italian kitchens. Guy Fieri sampled the Natural Mystic, penne in a pineapple-curry sauce with jerk chicken, and the restaurant's namesake Rasta Pasta, penne with jerk chicken tossed in red wine and house-made marinara, according to the show's own restaurant listing. Rasta Pasta is a Jamaican-Italian fusion restaurant on North Tejon Street in downtown Colorado Springs. The restaurant's original web address, rastapastacs.com, now redirects to an unrelated government portal, but a separate current site, realrastapasta.com, lists the same 405 North Tejon Street address, daily 11 a.m.-to-9 p.m. hours, and Clover online ordering. Yelp's listing for the restaurant was updated in August 2026 with 474 reviews, while a DoorDash listing flagged the restaurant as temporarily closed at check time.
