2023 VIDEO RECAP
Join Chef Robert Irvine, star of Food Network’s Restaurant: Impossible, for a one-of-a-kind food and music experience.
Robert Irvine is a world-class chef, entrepreneur, and tireless philanthropic supporter of our nation’s military. The host of Food Network’s hit show Restaurant: Impossible, he has given struggling restaurateurs a second chance to turn their lives and businesses around in over 200 episodes and counting.
He would know a thing or two about running a successful business. In addition to his restaurants—Robert Irvine’s Public House in Las Vegas and Fresh Kitchen by Robert Irvine within the Pentagon—he is the owner of FitCrunch, makers of protein bars and snacks; Robert Irvine Foods, which makes restaurant-quality prepared meals available in grocery stores; and Boardroom Spirits, makers of Irvine’s Vodka and Irvine’s American Dry Gin.
A portion of the proceeds from all of Robert’s endeavors benefit the Robert Irvine Foundation, which gives back to our service members, veterans, first responders, and their families.
For his charitable work and service on numerous USO tours, Robert is the recipient of several civilian honors, including Honorary Chief Petty Officer of the United States Navy, and the Medal of Honor Society’s Bob Hope Award.
THE CAUSE
"Our freedoms would not exist without the selflessness of our brave men and women in uniform... their sacrifices deserve to be honored and never forgotten." – Chef Robert Irvine
The Robert Irvine Foundation supports and strengthens the physical and mental well-being of our service members, veterans, first responders, and their families. We provide these heroes with life-changing opportunities that unlock the potential in their personal and professional lives through food, wellness, community, and financial support.
