About

Darden Restaurants, Inc. is an Orlando, Florida-based full-service restaurant operator — publicly traded on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE: DRI) as an S&P 500 Consumer Discretionary component — owning and operating approximately 2,000 restaurants across eight brands including Olive Garden (Italian casual dining — 900+ locations), LongHorn Steakhouse (casual steakhouse — 600+ locations), The Capital Grille (upscale steakhouse — 60+ locations), Yard House (upscale casual — 80+ locations), Cheddar's Scratch Kitchen (value casual dining), Bahama Breeze, Seasons 52, and Eddie V's through approximately 175,000 employees. In fiscal year 2025 (ending May 2025), Darden reported revenues of approximately $12.1 billion, integrating Ruth's Chris Steak House (acquired for $715 million in 2023, adding 150+ fine dining steakhouse locations) and navigating a casual dining environment where value-seeking consumer behavior and competitive pressure from fast-casual alternatives (Chipotle, Chick-fil-A) challenged traffic counts at all casual dining brands. CEO Rick Cardenas has executed "Back to Basics" operational simplification — reducing menu item counts at Olive Garden (eliminating Never Ending Pasta Bowl in 2024, the decades-long promotional fixture), standardizing kitchen operations across the company, and investing in employee wages and training to improve service quality and reduce turnover. Olive Garden's "Never Ending Breadsticks and Salad" hospitality model and its brand loyalty (highest unaided awareness of any full-service Italian restaurant in the US) provide Darden a durable casual dining anchor that generates reliable traffic from family celebrations, date nights, and business casual dining occasions.
