wonderful reviews we just got award after award after award my signature on the pizza is by cross back in the 90s it was busy but my grandfather thinks he's still in the night I think my pizza is awesome Pete is stuck in a tower I've done 200 people man come on but myself that's a long time yeah so much we used to be back now we have no customers I cannot pinpoint the reason I would tell me

of the place right changes the biggest problem you happy the pizzas um no Wow so the past oh absolutely it sounds like a very stubborn man yeah I have a lot more ideas has he started to pass the reins over seriously absolutely why is that I don't know what's gonna make him if ever it's always been three more years three more years it's crazy coming up Chef Ramsay begins his research it's like the piece of that AIT's Denver and discovers the biggest portions he has seen in a long time that looks like you won't believe how stubborn Pete really is it was the worst pizza in Denver I disagree with you so stubborn I may even believe that he may push his family out of the restaurant for good I'm out of here clearly this family is divided wife Paulette and son Josh feel that the restaurant is stuck in the past while Pete feels there is absolutely nothing wrong with his food it's time for Chef Ramsay to find out for himself siliceous a beautiful name would you think there's a few different problems when it comes to Pete and Paulette they butt heads a lot on how things should be run she wants changes and Pete wants things his way Wow anyway let me have a quick look at the menu and another letter here everything is homemade we cook for you just like the mama did that's nice to know only go for a sausage pizza please we toasted meatball hero and Pete's own cousin and then I'll go for the linguine of clam as well all right thank you my dying my god look at the diamond mommy's got as much atmosphere in here as it was in the hospital room I mean it is sad here's this pit okey-dokey okay I'm no nervous for Chef Ramsay to taste my food well let's put it this way he's gonna go to heaven today I want to know where the [ __ ] you were eating cat food sorry holy [ __ ] well that's yep where's that behind your head that's a hologram we keep me out you know what a lot of people are afraid of that that's a clown Oh girls how long's that been about Oh probably 15 years whose idea was that that's rude that's why oh my god where's the cousin really no it's done give it up no it's not I just checked it this morning is done this is putting check it like two seconds ago [Music] Jesus do I look like one of the Denver Broncos that I can eat this thing if it looks huge thank you done stirring this portion with a hideous how much filling does he put in there raw onion Paulette yes Jesus I'm just putting in there look all that pepperoni I mean the slices are sourced jam together yeah I've never seen a calzone so formal I mean the things cold that is hideous I don't either I didn't want to take that calzone and fling it like a frisbee for about 20 heroes Pete I got some critiques for you the complaint is it's so cool it's a wake-up call for Pete I put my picture up against anybody in the country know it Denver Colorado in the country that's how confident I am about my pitch let's go here we go here's your sausage pizza holy it's like the pizza there's eight Denver yeah [ __ ] okay I'll let you take that in thank you oh my god rapid increase the oil grease can we have an oil in there of the grease he said it's too greasy just exactly what I feel oh I don't want to hear honestly the best pizza in Denver I mean does that look like the best pizza trust me I can tell you it doesn't taste good so let's steal the dough so thick why I mean it's just like your loaf of bread it's like a baguette in that that's our thin crust that's the thin crust stone Wow seriously a lot of people get upset with me for that when they ask for the thin crust and I bring them Wow it's our son does raw raw pastry my god what a mess nothing I'm done already okay I'll let him know merci that is definitely not the best piece from Denver let's get that right maybe he wanted me to show you go inside and see it is very look really - are you kidding me I don't know what the chef is talking about and a lot of people love it I do I eat it but she gets only fit Amelie are you kidding me what that's disgusting I'm hungry I think sir perhaps his problem is that it hasn't tasted a classic pizza before damn is good is taste that all this fancy stuff you know here the meatball hero Wow and how do you I guess you approach that Wow thank you my dying no problem just visually there's nothing here Oh looking about that that's not anywhere near a hero sandwich that looks more like a sloppy joe bad it's all soggy there it's like eating a patch of soaking wet grass after a cow shall / enter y'all done with that I was definitely not here yet disgusting there's a type of hair on the menu it's not here oh it's zero I'll let him know please do you want to hear chefs response yes yes he said it's a zero not a hero I don't believe this I have plenty of people that they love my meatball I am very proud of my meatballs and for supremacy to say was a zero it's very insulting [Music] Chef Ramsay has started sampling the menu at Panta Leone's and Walt peat claims his food is the best in Denver Chef Ramsay has discovered holding its anything but which I Gantt ik portions greasy pizza and tasteless dishes it's not Hara in zero Josh what are you doing Josh let the garlic roast really walk you over the head of this damn thing you're really hot before you put them in is this the first time I've done that I don't agree at all with serving anything out of a can it's embarrassing it's a stitch okay here's the linguini Wow thank you I mean that is absolutely dreadful they're seasoning bland like a plate of hospital food I mean it's just so an appetizing excess water I mean that is disgusting [Music] don't clap its piston my pasta that's bad yeah thank you that's not one of the worst urine samples you could ever give em Kim or me Joshua what I said he was very very not happy there were a lot of comments it's ridiculous right now the only person in here that's happier is that stupid [ __ ] clown on the wall that was bad take it man there's a reason this place isn't doing it right now let's come around 37 years since I came in this country I've been working in the kitchens and I know what I'm doing I don't know what to say my first time endeavor and quite possibly one of the worst experiences I've ever has first of all the clams were dreadful I disagree with you seriously yes be any idea how bad that tasted it's how he's made it for years and years well they can't do it what why are you lying to me I'm lying you mention on the menu that everything's fresh and homemade like mama did it's always first made I don't think the ingredients required as fresh anymore and then the big disaster my sausage pizza it was dripping in grease the dough was so thick parts of it were undercooked I disagree with you about my dog I think I have a great dog really yes this was a thin crust yes sir I mean you need to go get your eyes tested but that was not a thin crust I am disagreeing with you I have we are not in the 1985 Pete do you think that your father is serving the best pizza in Denver not anymore and do you think your husband is selling the best pizza in Denver no I don't you know there's a huge mistake on the awning because I think you just cooked me the worst pizza in Denver I disagree with you can I have two minutes on my own you mind no no no Peters extremely set in his ways but he's got to listen to somebody or we're not gonna make it you know what he meets us no he's right on every damn pete you're in denial that's the problem you cannot just continue going through their system of failure that you're just you're not getting anywhere you're just going further further backwards and it's not making anybody happy it's not giving your wife and your your family a bit of freedom it's just feeding your ego I don't know just you're sinking you've taken everybody else on the boat with you no I'm not [Music] the pizza is not good are still gonna disagree with you I really will I'm sorry but I am I need some fresh air focaccia [ __ ] me I don't think I'm doing in dear old Stefan I've been doing this for 37 years Chef Ramsay was a kid when I first started cooking I should know a little bit more about he dogs he's right on everything he said every [ __ ] thing you said is right the pizza even I've been telling you everything that he told you I've been saying the same [ __ ] though I said pipe the crust down it's too [ __ ] much you [ __ ] does it take time to tell you that types of listen know what to dig was the food is [ __ ] it really is are you crying why are you crying it's [ __ ] frustrating I did the best I could over the years it's not good enough anymore come outs are never I don't you know what I realized that it was like this for many many years and I've been nagging and screaming and carrying on this place either changes or lock the [ __ ] door if you don't change and do what he says you'll never see me in this place again and I don't give two flying you know what's what happens to everything out you'll be here by yourself everybody calm right I don't think that I need to change I know what I'm doing Joshua and Paulette do not understand about running in this place I got more experience than they both have been put together so there you have it after seeing how stubborn Pete was about his food the pizza is not good I'm still gonna disagree with you and it's claimed that he has the best pizza in the city Chef Ramsay knew he had to do something to finally get through to him we're gonna be tasting three Margherita pizzas so we headed downtown cheese to do a little organized research thank you guys I appreciate it now armed with the findings from the taste test for Chef Ramsay returns to Panta Leone's to confront Pete with the results one thing that is very clear I think Pete you have overestimated how good your pizza is I don't think you've ever compared it to what's happening in Denver right now so after my disappointing lunch yesterday I did a little research in Denver how about all of you stand up and come stand over here please yep and here it comes find out how good your pizzas are three pizzas in front of me ABC a is from one of the best restaurants in town B is your pizzas and C is a store-bought local frozen pizza time to put your piece that's right your pieces B which was your favorite like did I'd say a like because it was thin and your least-favorite mean why be soggy on the crust way too much cheese it'll prompt everything else felt my heart stop it is too much south across the aggressive soggy okay his results in a nutshell 75% of our taste testers preferred Pizza ray from the top local Italian restaurants in second place with 15 percent of the votes was a store-bought frozen pizza and in third and last position was yours with 10 percent only of the votes yours was the least favorite you're actually beaten by a store-bought [ __ ] frozen pizza get the message Wow yeah Wow how does that make you feel pull it dad but I'm not surprised because I've been saying the same thing too much cheese dementia crust too much everything I've talked and talked and talked about the same things and I don't see it changing it's really bad it needs to change I think that in his mind it's always more is better I do put it on our agreement I do your pizzas are dated I am very surprised of the results of the video I never thought my wildest dreams thought the people of Denver who big frozen bits over my pizza you have got to understand you are miles away from serving Denver's best pizza that 1991 review behind me is no longer valid we're in a different era you've taken the praise of a local critic has gone to your head and you have locked in what they said was good and you've kept doing it for nearly 30 [ __ ] years can you three just give me two minutes and get some fresh air outside because this is important I've got one very important question for you am I willing to change that's the one No you realize like how embarrassing it's been the last three years to work for other people well we have a restaurant that's all because of yes that's [ __ ] I've been in here waiting tables and my needs are shocked I'm not gonna do any more I'm serious with you I mean I may even believe I pulled with you I've been your partner you haven't always been mine but I have been yours and I want you now to step up because I don't want to lose my home and the few little things that I have I don't want you to faint are you committed I am you are I am 100% yes I am ready to change I am can you yes I hope so [Music] Peter's a creature have had it and it's gonna be hard for him to change at break habits I want to see it the combination of Chef Ramsay's taste test favorite actually beaten by a snowboard [ __ ] frozen pizza and ultimatums from his family I may even leave has resulted in a commitment from Pete I am ready to change to accept change but before any physical changes are made to the restaurant or to the food Chef Ramsay wants to bridge the gap between a father and a son here we are with one two three generations working in this business how important is that for you very very so let me tell you something about a unique Italian restaurant it's in New York it's called Rao's they have been serving quality food since 1896 what and every single night is packed you cannot get in there Josh how does that sound that's my dream short I'd love to take you to Rao's unfortunately it's a little far from here but in 2006 they opened up in Vegas and I can take you both to Vegas that is exactly what all three others are doing tonight ray Oates is out of Caesars and my good friends at Caesars have said their private plane wheels up in an hour what the [ __ ] is going on it's unbelievable I can't even think right now but this is gonna be a blast are you kidding I'm ready to go to Vegas with Chef Ramsay and my son of course hello [Music] how nice is that to get out of that restaurant you feel great to be a licensed tonight is about you to catch up with each other and spend a bit of quality time together yeah here's to you both yeah Cheers follow the Sun [Music] Frankie how I say thank you come on it's going to are any room let's go full generations I'm the fourth generation can you give an insight in terms of how I grew up under the tutelage of my father and I had to learn how to really become open-minded and willing to communicate in a constructive way and if you have that strong relationship and care for one another that will only reflect in your business and who's really gonna pick up on that all your guests if there was a strong key message to Josh stepping up to the plate what would it be truthfully the most important thing is the relationship you have with your dad I agree with Frank that the most important relationship is with my father and I hope my father can see with working together how successful we can become are you ready to try some stunning food yes we are I am so thankful for Chef Ramsay to bring me over here and open my eyes and my mind I can see why they've been in business for over 100 years off salute I know what they doing let's take a lesson from it I'm gonna remember this night for the rest of my life [Music] one late together in Vegas has clearly brought Josh and Pete together again and while they have been away Chef Ramsay gave the green light to his team to overhaul the decor of this outdated restaurant so are you all ready to see the next chapter under the oh yes okay great remove your blindfolds this is gorgeous amazing gold is that depressing tacky look at the 80s we have completely transformed this gorgeous little room it's the rest of today it's got that fresh contemporary feel is it amazing it is amazing we tore down that
