Have you ever even looked at building codes or not stuck the bar you rescued with a over priced bill? Because that is just what you do. You ruin great places and force them out of business!

I've watched all seasons of Bar Rescue, I've even purchased a few earlier seasons and play them when I feel like having BR marathons. JT comes on so strong and hard initially. Then you realize that he is that way because he actually cares and can give these owners some of his knowledge and know-how to help change their life and businesses. The show is amazing,same goes for the whole staff,production crew, Mr Taffer and all his sponsors ,and people responcible for putting out the show. Thank you all !

As a bar aficionado and a hopeful future bar owner, I find this show absolutely fascinating and highly entertaining. Jon Taffer is knowledgable and very tough, but he also can connect with the bar owners on an emotional level when necessary. The bar transformations are just incredible to watch, from the facility to the staff getting trained by true experts. And the show always pays off with the big reveal that 99% of the time has the owners and the employees in awe, many times crying tears of joy. Love the show and would recommend it to anyone, even teetotalers.
