Restaurant Impossible At Perella’s Ristorante In Warren, R.I.

On tonight’s episode of Restaurant Impossible, Robert Irvine and his makeover team are in Warren, R.I., to save Perella’s Ristorante.

Perella’s Ristorante is an Italian eatery owned and operated by Louie Perella. According to the episode synopsis, Louie’s stubbornness is holding back his restaurant. He hasn’t updated the menu or decor of Perella’s since the restaurant opened 25 years ago.

Tonight’s episode “Old Habits Die Hard” was filmed back in early October, 2019.

In a recent interview with the Providence Journal, Louie descried his experience with Robert Irvine, and the overall makeover process. “At the beginning, I really wanted to throw him out. He beats the hell out of you,” the Providence Journal quoted Louie as saying.

“But by the end, I believed he was sincere about wanting the restaurant to succeed.”
