Fieri was born Guy Ramsay Ferry on January 22, 1968, in Columbus, Ohio, the son of Penelope Anne (née Price) and Lewis James Ferry. He grew up in Ferndale in rural Humboldt County, California. During high school, he was a foreign exchange student in France, where he developed his interest in food and cooking.
In late 1996, Fieri and business partner Steve Gruber opened Johnny Garlic’s, a “California Pasta Grill” in Santa Rosa, California. A second location opened in Windsor in 1999, a third in Petaluma in 2000 or 2001 (since closed), and a fourth in Roseville in late 2008. Subsequently, they developed Tex Wasabi’s (barbecue and sushi) in 2003 in Santa Rosa, adding a second location in Sacramento’s Arden-Arcade area in 2007 (which was rebranded as Johnny Garlic’s, and then subsequently closed). An additional Johnny Garlic’s was opened in Dublin, California, in 2011. His first New York City restaurant, Guy’s American Kitchen and Bar, opened in 2012 to brutal New York Times coverage by Pete Wells that Larry Olmsted of Forbes called “the most scathing review in the history of the New York Times”, and “likely the most widely read restaurant review ever.” Fieri, for his part, accused Wells, the nation’s highest profile reviewer, of using Fieri’s fame as a platform for advancing his own prestige. Despite appearing on Restaurant Business’s list of the top 100 independent restaurants as ranked by sales for four years in a row, the restaurant announced plans to close at the end of 2017. In 2011, Fieri partnered with Carnival Cruise lines to create Guy’s Burger Joint to sell Fieri’s burgers fleet-wide. As of October 2017, there were 19 restaurants on Carnival’s cruise ships, including some serving beer-and-BBQ, Guy’s Pig & Anchor Smokehouse Brewhouse.
After winning the second season of The Next Food Network Star on April 23, 2006, Fieri was awarded a six-episode commitment for his own cooking show on Food Network. Guy’s Big Bite premiered on June 25, 2006 with the most recent episode airing on November 16, 2016.
