Bumbinos Italian Ristorante
Orange City, Florida
The rescue did not hold; it later closed in 2014.
The short answer
Yellow Pages and MapQuest both independently tag the listing CLOSED.
What happened on the show
Bumbinos Italian Ristorante in Orange City, Florida, run by Terry Gardner and Willie Fretwell, took its eighth season slot under the series pattern, a compressed two day overhaul on a small renovation budget. No summary survives on Wikipedia, so how Irvine remade the kitchen and room is not thorough here. The restaurant has since closed, confirmed independently by Yellow Pages and MapQuest, which both tag the Enterprise Road listing as closed. A specific closing date circulating through a banned tracker was not used; the two directory tags carry the status on their own. Bumbinos sits among the eighth season entries whose televised reset failed to stick, an Italian spot that closed within a couple of years of its episode rather than building on the fresh start.
After the cameras left
Bumbinos Italian Ristorante closed in August 2014, only months after its episode aired. Two independent directories, Yellow Pages and MapQuest, each tag the listing as closed, which anchors the status; a more specific late-August date exists but traces to a source we will not cite, so we hold to the month. The two separate directory flags mean this is a high-confidence call. The Orange City Italian restaurant did not survive its own year on the show, joining the season's shorter-lived rescues rather than its comebacks.
