What happened after Food Paradise?

In the 'Best Mex' episode, TacoLu Baja Mexicana was featured for its Baja California-style cooking, including beer-battered fish tacos and made-to-order guacamole. The episode highlighted TacoLu's rotating list of Baja-inspired seafood tacos alongside its margarita program. TacoLu is a casual sit-down restaurant on Beach Boulevard in Jacksonville Beach, Florida. A direct check of the restaurant's own website, tacolu.com, returned a blocked response rather than page content. A Yelp listing, updated in August 2026, lists TacoLu as operating, with posted hours running Tuesday through Sunday and continuing customer reviews.

A Google Places listing separately shows the business as operational. The restaurant is also listed as active on food-delivery platforms such as Uber Eats, according to its menu page there. No reports of a closure, sale, or relocation of TacoLu were found in any source consulted.
