A large amount of the time the owners/operators are in complete denial about badly made food being a primary reason that the restaurant is failed. The other large % of the time the people who operate the restaurant can’t escape their own arrogance and incompetence, and along with these details, the restaurant itself is in dire need of a makeover. Often the kitchens have never been cleaned.

Irvine & company rescues the restaurant each week by a combination of a new “do,” counseling to the staff, and a new menu with food made to Irvine’s direction. It’s interesting to watch.
A complete rip off of Gordon Ramsey's show on BBC, and later Fox, Kitchen Nightmares.
