Island Kine Grinds is a Hawaiian restaurant owned by married couple Renus and Ludi.
According to the episode synopsis, Renus and Ludi are on the edge of bankruptcy and despair. “Renus’ health issues have left him physically incapable of helping Ludi, who is overwhelmed managing the restaurant by herself. Robert must help Renus heal his mind, body and spirit or else their marriage and business could fail.”
During the rescue which happened back in late May 2022, Island Kine Grinds was renamed Aloha island Grill.
Furthermore, according to documents filed with the Idaho Secretary of State, there was a change of ownership on August 3, 2022.
