Chef Robert Irvine visits Whiskey Creek Steakhouse in Keyport, Washington, where he finds very poor quality, unseasoned food, a dark and dated dining room with old battered furniture and the staff cannot be trusted and due to poor management they frequently let customers leave without paying.
Owners Pat and Karan haven't moved with the times after being open 20 years, they don't keep records on a computer, costs have gotten out of control and they have lost track of the finances.
A few months after filming they had a good few months and had begun to pay off their debts. They moved from the location featured on the show to a bigger space across the road, they were renting the space but it was sold.
Pat and Karan retired in November 2013, passing the business to their employees. They closed in August 2016.
