Latest / Extra Serving: A restaurant industry podcast
Quarterly earnings from Texas Roadhouse, El Pollo Loco, Bloomin’ Brands, and more
This week on the Extra Serving podcast, a product of Nation’s Restaurant News, NRN editors Holly Petre, Sam Oches, and Leigh Anne Zinsmeister continued to speak about this quarter’s earnings.
Since the editors last gathered for the pod, several companies have reported, including Bloomin’ Brands, El Pollo Loco, and Texas Roadhouse.
The editors mentioned Texas Roadhouse last week, anticipating the brand’s positive returns, and that’s exactly what was reported. The chain saw 4% traffic growth, slightly less than at Chipotle, and same-store sales growth of almost 8% across the system.
