What happened after Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives?

Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives featured The Red Door in the episode "On the Hook and In the Bun," which aired July 27, 2018, spotlighting the restaurant's burger-and-beer menu. The Red Door operated as a restaurant on Evanston Avenue North in Seattle, Washington. According to Wikipedia, in a version revised July 11, 2026, The Red Door closed in 2020. Google Places separately listed the Evanston Avenue North location's business status as permanently closed in a September 2026 check. Wikipedia's entry does not name any successor tenant at the address.

No 2026-dated website, social-media account, or news coverage was found describing a reopening, relocation, or new business operating from the same address since the 2020 closure. The Wikipedia entry also notes the restaurant's earlier appearance on Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives before it closed.
