In this episode of Restaurant: Impossible, Chef Robert Irvine heads to Tennessee to help a struggling restaurant known as Coaches Corner. Coaches Corner is the dream of former college football player turned owner and chef, Coach Tony. He named the restaurant after his past career in football, and made it a place for sports fans to come together and enjoy good food and drinks. However, over time, Coaches Corner has fallen on tough times, and the food has become lackluster.
Upon arriving, Chef Robert is taken aback by the filth and disorganization in the kitchen. The back refrigerator is full of mold and spoiled food, and Chef Tony is hoarding outdated inventory. The staff is also struggling, with one server admitting to having zero experience in the restaurant industry before working at Coaches Corner.
Chef Robert quickly gets to work, first holding a staff meeting to address the issues and changes that need to be made. He also brings in a new chef to help revamp the menu and train the kitchen staff. The new menu features dishes that pay homage to Coach Tony's love of football, including a buffalo chicken flatbread and a "Hail Mary" burger.
During the renovation process, Chef Robert and his team uncover a major issue with the roof of the restaurant. They need to fix it in order to prevent any further damage to the building and to keep diners safe. Chef Robert also works with the owners to rebrand Coaches Corner and give it a fresh new look. The dining area is updated with new tables, chairs, and football-themed decor.
As the grand reopening approaches, tensions rise between Chef Tony and his wife over the direction of the restaurant. Chef Robert steps in to mediate and remind them of their shared goal: to create a successful restaurant and provide for their family.
In the end, Coaches Corner is transformed into a thriving restaurant with a revamped menu, new look, and a motivated staff. Chef Tony and his wife are grateful for the changes, and the future looks bright for Coaches Corner.
