People frequently inquire about the whereabouts of Kitchen featured in Kitchen Nightmares episodes. Here in this article, we will go over the different restaurants that are still open for business even in 2022.
Zayna's Flaming Grill made it

Family fallouts are something Kitchen Nightmares excels at more than nearly any other show. Zayna's Flaming Grill is one such establishment. Ramsay begins the episode by interviewing co-owners Fay and her niece Brenda, both of whom believe the other should leave the company.
Over the next 40 minutes, as you could guess, communication became a problem. After getting the Ramsay treatment, Zayna's Flaming Grill was taken over by new management in 2015.
They successfully turned the ship around, and TripAdvisor constantly rates them as good or exceptional.

This Fremont, CA-based steakhouse, which was featured in season 5, currently enjoys positive reviews, despite some customers being unhappy with the exorbitant prices.
In an attempt to save a failing marriage between the owners as a result of the business's problems, Ramsay helped them focus on a single cuisine with a dramatically reduced menu. Customers continue to flock to the restaurant in search of their mouthwatering prime rib, though other old favorites have been revived as well.
D'Italia by Luigi

Luigi Catizone, the owner, has been running this Anaheim, CA Italian restaurant since 1981, with the aid of his father. When his uncle intervened, however, it generated friction between the two, who were frequently squabbling. During his tasting, Ramsay also discovered that the ravioli was not fresh and the pasta was unseasoned.
However, after the re-launch, the restaurant gradually regained its footing and has been receiving consistently positive feedback from customers ever since.
Greek Cuisine by Yanni

When Ramsay and his team visited this family-run Greek restaurant in Phinney Ridge, WA in season 6, it was in deep debt, with an outdated menu and food quality issues. He shut down the kitchen after discovering rotten and outdated meat in the fridge.
They apparently kept some of the new meals after the remodel, but brought back other old favorites. It's still going strong today, with positive reviews praising the excellent food and service, while others say it lacks warmth and authentic Greek hospitality.
Southern Cuisine by Ms. Jean

This restaurant in Wilkinsburg, Pennsylvania, is still open, even after their move. The mayor honored the owner and retired teacher Jean Gould for her years of devotion to the city, despite mixed reviews.
When Ramsay came, the attitude was the main problem: Gould was frequently irritated by disgruntled customers, and her staff was also lacking. In addition, the food was boring, overdone, and/or greasy. Customers today seem to enjoy the buffet style, as well as the quality and flavor of the cuisine, while some still complain about the employees being unpleasant and unwelcoming.
