What happened after Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives?

Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives (Food Network) featured Ro-Ho Pork & Bread: Tortas Ahogadas on "Tortas, Tomatoes and Tequila," which aired 2024-12-06, spotlighting the restaurant's tortas ahogadas, a Guadalajara-style sandwich drowned in salsa. The business describes itself on its site as a small, easygoing outlet on New Braunfels Avenue in San Antonio built around that single Jalisco specialty, and it has since added a second drive-thru location on Fair Avenue. According to the restaurant's website (ro-hoporkandbread.com), checked 2026-09-08, the page listed current Sunday hours of 10am-5pm for the New Braunfels Avenue location, showed both locations with working "Order Online" links, and its shopping-cart checkout tool was functioning.

Google's business listing for the New Braunfels Avenue address marked the location operational as of the same check. Together, the current site content, the added second location, and the matching Google status show the restaurant continuing to operate at its original featured address.
