What happened after Food Paradise?
Food Paradise (Travel Channel) featured Sarussi Subs in the 'Sandwich Heroes' episode, spotlighting the Miami sandwich shop's pressed Cuban-style subs. The business operates today as Sarussi Cafe Subs at 9836 SW 40th Street in Miami, according to its own website and an online ordering page listed there. This appearance is treated as an additional TV credit for the same restaurant already on file as mvf-128, rather than a separate business, based on the matching name and Miami location.
Man v. Food's Miami-area episode (aired 2010-02-03) visited Sarussi, a Cuban sandwich counter on Southwest 8th Street built around what the business calls its Original Sandwich. According to Sarussi's own website, the restaurant has served as a gathering spot for Miami's Cuban community for roughly fifty years, and its Original Sandwich drew wider attention in 2009 for its presentation and flavor. Checked on 2026-09-08, Sarussi's website, sarussisubs.net, carried a 2026 copyright date, listed weekday hours beginning at 9 a.m., and offered functioning online ordering, delivery information and a photo gallery under the name Sarussi Subs. The business operates at 6797 SW 8th Street in Miami, describing itself as devoted to the authentic Cuban sandwich. The site also listed a business phone number, (786) 208-0626, for direct inquiries.
