Restaurant Impossible
Denny Tornatore was part of a family owned restaurant group when he and his wife decided to open up a restaurant and pizzeria on their own. The stress of running everything themselves with a new baby on the way nearly cost Denny his marriage as well as his restaurant. He was close to closing his doors when Celebrity Chef Robert Irvine and the Food Network stunned Denny with a surprise makeover on the Ambush Episode of Restaurant Impossible.
