What happened after Food Paradise?
The Albright was featured in the episode "Route 66" (S12E2), which highlighted this Santa Monica Pier seafood restaurant as a fitting West Coast endpoint for the historic highway. According to the restaurant's own website, thealbright.com, The Albright has operated on the pier since 1977, serving a raw bar alongside seafood-focused starters, salads, tacos, and sandwiches. The site, checked 2026-09-09, displays 2026-dated content and lists current hours of Friday from 11:30 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. and Saturday and Sunday from 11:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m., along with a working online ordering option and an e-club signup. Those combined signals, current-year content, posted hours, and an active ordering system, support that the restaurant remained open at the time of this check. No independent third-party source was reviewed to corroborate the finding.
