Greek at the Harbor Was Doomed Before Gordon

Status: CLOSED

Greek at the Harbor in Ventura was doomed before Gordon arrived. The Greek restaurant had problems too deep for Kitchen Nightmares to solve.

Brief History

By the time filming began, the restaurant was already in free fall. The debt was overwhelming. The customer base had evaporated. The owners were exhausted and demoralized.

Gordon did what he could – improved the menu, cleaned the kitchen, pushed for better standards. But some businesses are past saving by the time rescue shows arrive.

The closure came quickly after the episode aired. Another statistic in the long list of restaurants that didn’t make it.
