This week, Taffer and his crew are in Los Angeles— but they will be heading to make over bars in Washington, D.C., Baltimore, Cincinnati, Fort Lauderdale and in the West Palm Beach area.

As one of the country’s top restaurant and bar consultants, he brings about 30 years of industry experience to help failing businesses. The show not only helps with the exterior, but with restructuring other facets of running a bar in hopes of creating a more profitable menu, crowd management, music selection and managing disgruntled employees.
