A Norman, Oklahoma diner is famous for its chili but, after more than a century in business, could use some updating.

Three longtime friends, who purchased Johnny Cakes Diner in Nyack, N.Y., to save it from extinction, need help keeping it from failing, because of boring burgers, rocking booths and an all-around dull presentation.

Rising costs pose a threat to George's Place in Carmel, N.Y., but Ty and Amanda have a plan to save the beloved diner, which they determine needs a farm-fresh makeover and some updates to the interior.

A pungent carpet, bland side dishes and a disorganized front area are among the problems Ty and Amanda tackle, when they help a diner owner in Monroe, Michigan.
