What happened after Mystery Diners?

On the Season 8 episode "Fyre on the Beach" (Mystery Diners, aired 2014-12-29), Allen, owner of the Waikiki restaurant then known on the show as Shore Fyre Grill, noticed discrepancies in his sales figures and asked investigator Charles Stiles to look into it; mystery diners Jordan and David went undercover and traced a related issue to the surf shop operating next door. According to Wikipedia's article on the program, citing its sources, the show's own end-credits disclaimer allows that certain events may have been staged or re-enacted for dramatic effect, and a television critic quoted in the article described the show's setups as unconvincing. The Koa Avenue location today operates under the name ShoreFyre, and its website, checked on 2026-09-09, carried a 2026 copyright notice, posted hours running from 7:30 a.m. into the early morning on weekends, and a working online-ordering widget covering breakfast, brunch, lunch, dinner, and late-night menus.

The same site listed a second, newer ShoreFyre location at the International Market Place a short distance away. No source consulted in this check documented a formal name change from Shore Fyre Grill to ShoreFyre, so the naming difference is noted here without being treated as a confirmed rebrand. No closure or relocation of the Koa Avenue address was found in the sources checked.
