What happened after Restaurant: Impossible (Food Network)?
Restaurant: Impossible (Food Network)'s "Golf: Impossible" visited Pomona Golf and Country Club, a nine-hole golf course and clubhouse in Egg Harbor City, New Jersey that three cousins had run together for about a decade, continuing a family operation with roughly 45 years of history at the same address. Chef Robert Irvine found a clubhouse restaurant that had changed little in decades, with an outdated menu, aging decor, and a lack of new, younger members or diners to replace an aging customer base. The cousins' working relationship had grown strained under the financial pressure of a business that was not turning a consistent profit, and the episode framed much of its drama around whether the three could agree on a shared vision rather than only on food or design problems. Irvine's team used the show's standard 48-hour window and roughly $10,000 budget to renovate the clubhouse dining space, updating the room and reworking a menu built around casual, golf-course-friendly food meant to draw both longtime members and newer, younger customers. As with the show's other themed specials that season, the episode treated the country-club setting as part of the challenge, distinguishing the rescue from a typical stand-alone restaurant makeover by also addressing how food and beverage service fit into a broader golf-club business built on memberships and course fees rather than walk-in traffic alone. Irvine worked directly with the three cousins on communication and decision-making, pushing them to define clearer roles in running the food side of the business rather than leaving it to informal arrangements. The reveal presented a modernized clubhouse dining room and a simplified menu intended to be easier to execute consistently and more appealing to a broader range of golfers and guests. The episode aired August 13, 2014, immediately following the season's bowling-alley-themed special, continuing a run of non-traditional venues within the show's ninth season.
