Later in August, Red Robin Gourmet Burgers Inc. will open its latest Florida restaurant at the Melbourne Square Mall on West New Haven Ave. in Melbourne on the East Florida coast. It will be the Colorado-based chain’s 21st restaurant in the state. Introduced in 1969, the casual dining family-friendly chain serves more than two dozen high-quality gourmet burgers in a variety of recipes with its ‘Bottomless Steak Fries’ as well as salads, soups, appetizers, entrees, desserts, and signature ‘Mad Mixology’ beverages.  Presently there are more than 500 Red Robin restaurants across the United States and Canada, including Red Robin Burger Works locations and those operating under franchise agreements. For its second quarter that ended in mid-July, Red Robin Gourmet Burgers recorded a 14.4 percent increase in total revenues to $293-million and a 2.9 percent increase in comparable restaurant sales.

During the second quarter, the company opened four Red Robin restaurants, including the reopening of one Red Robin restaurant that was temporarily closed in 2014 due to public construction. The company also completed 31 remodels during the second quarter towards its goal of 150 remodels this year and expects to have a total of 295 restaurants conforming to the new brand standards by year end, including new restaurant openings.
