Today, the results of Restaurants & Institutions’ (R&I)
29th annual Consumers’ Choice in Chains study were announced, and
Red Robin Gourmet Burgers, Inc. (Red Robin) – the gourmet burger
expert for the past 40 years – was named the Gold Level
award-winning Top Burger Chain in America. This is the fourth time
Red Robin has received a Top Burger Chain distinction from R&I,
a monthly foodservice industry magazine reaching more than 120,000
subscribers.
In the Consumers’ Choice in Chains study R&I conducted,
3,000 consumers were asked to rate nearly 120 chain restaurants on
eight customer satisfaction attributes: food quality, menu variety,
value, service, atmosphere, cleanliness, reputation and
convenience. Winners were named in 13 menu categories, including
Top Burger, based on the scores given to each restaurant chain.
“This award holds great significance for us because it means our
guests recognize the quality and deliciousness of our gourmet
burgers and enjoy their experience in our restaurants, so much so
they took the time to cast their vote for Red Robin as a Top Burger
Chain,” said Susan Lintonsmith, chief marketing officer at Red
Robin. “Red Robin’s commitment to creative burgers and the level of
service our team members provide is what keeps our guests coming
back for more.”
Now in its 29th year, the R&I Consumers’ Choice in Chains
award is recognized as a key measure of success by restaurant
chains across the country.
“The R&I Consumers’ Choice in Chains award is a people’s
choice award that sends a powerful message to the industry and
beyond, which says restaurants have earned business and guest
loyalty, and the attributes that set them apart from others in each
segment,” said Dan Hogan, R&I’s publisher.
Award winners were honored in a ceremony on Aug. 17, 2009 at The
Ritz-Carlton, Laguna Niguel in Dana Point, Calif.
