I love me a good transformation show but this is a sad excuse for one... The interior "makeover" in every episode is a coat of paint and reupholstered chairs. The majority of each episode is more of the cast going on a local adventure rather than them actually teaching and guiding the restaurant owners to success. At the beginning of each episode they emphasize that the restaurants are very close to going under, then proceed to show nothing about how they will save the restaurants other than a fresh coat of paint and a local dish for the menu. No follow up after the fact to let the viewers know if they were successful in saving the business. Just bad.

I feel like there is no soul in this show. Some team who I think is not in any control what is happening in the show. Camera shots look fake and the freaking SLOW-MO is really boring.

The show has potential... But the hosts are terrible

The palettes and drink segments are charming in this show but did they leave a $20 budget for design? Most of the designs legitimately look worse. It's as if they have an Eat'n Park inspiration behind the interiors. Two words: BRICK WALLPAPER

I really wanted to like this show. Having binged every thing else on Netflix, I gave this show a go. For anyone thinking the same..... DONT BOTHER.

The cast is horrible, self indulgent, and not qualified to give advice to these struggling restaurant owners. (*one can assume those owners had to cough up the money for all the decor that KARIN buys) The show misses the fundamental premise of offering sound marketing and business advice to these people. (*and what the heck does NICK do on the show?!)

I hope the cast and producers will read their own reviews and overhaul the concept.

It's like they just discovered slow motion in editing and have to use it every other shot, it gets extremely old after awhile. Locations are the saving grace of the show, beautiful locales, and the personalities of the host aren't terrible. The show just suffers from amateur editing.

As someone who LOVES these types of shows, I was surprised that I could only stomach one episode. All of the "experts"/hosts not only seem dim (like seriously..all of them) but also extremely self-important. The designer is by far the worst unless you think everywhere in the World should have that IKEA Scandinavian vibe.

And when the American chef pronounced the "h" in herbs, I was done.

BONUS, it's one of those shows that lacks enough interesting content, so it is over-edited with many slow motion shots of people walking. Pretty pretty bad.

The show does not show any type of end result they only tell the owners that they have no idea of what their own culture is.

When I first started watching, I did not really know anything about the show. At the very beginning, in Slovenia, I reacted to how three Amercan «experts» would know anything about the Slovenian restaurant business. It was more of a travel show. I stopped watching halfway through the Finland episode. I am so fed up by Americans(sorry, but mostly Americans) taking about Europe like a single country («Oh! It's SO European!!!), and then talk about Scandinavian design in Finland. Finland is a Nordic country, not Scandinavian, but both are part of Europe! Time for a geography lesson, everybody!

If the «experts» had the knowledge and facts in order, this might have been an ok travel show, but the restaurant part is rubbish.

2/10 only for these nice restaurants that are so much nicer the way they already are.

A restaurant already has this amazing looking food with unique twists (local wine and herbs). An hour later we find out that what these "experts" present to the restaurant owners (as a solution to not maybe having as many customers as they would want) is to add the same kind of local wine and herbs to the menu. Seriously?

All that these "experts" really did was changed what they themselves said was already good and modernized the decor to something that doesn't match the owners' vision or the feel of the place.
