What happened after Food Paradise?

"Food Paradise" featured Tombolini's Meatballs, a Tomball, Texas restaurant built around its meatball dishes, in the 2013 episode "Meatball Paradise" (S4E13). The show highlighted the restaurant's meatball preparation as a draw for visiting food tourists. The restaurant was located on Market Street in downtown Tomball, a small city northwest of Houston. Since the episode aired, the business at 106 Market Street has changed. According to the current occupant's website, everybellies.com, the address now houses Every-Bellies, a restaurant serving burgers, barbecue, and loaded tater dishes with catering and online ordering.

A check of the site on 2026-09-08 found 2026-dated content, a working ordering widget, and no mention of Tombolini's Meatballs or its meatball menu. A Google Places listing for the address likewise shows only the Every-Bellies name, with nothing connecting the two businesses.
