About Chili’s
Chili’s Grill & Bar kicked off in 1975 when Larry Lavine decided Texas needed a casual dining spot with some real personality. Fast forward, and it’s now a powerhouse under Brinker International, serving up bold flavors and good times across the globe.
The challenge
Chili’s, a household name in casual dining with over 1,600 locations globally, was facing declining engagement among Gen Z and younger millennials—particularly on digital platforms where fast-casual competitors were dominating the conversation. While in-restaurant traffic was steady post-COVID, online engagement and off-premise dining (delivery/pickup) were not meeting targets.
Goals:
Reposition Chili’s as a “social-first brand” for the next generation.
Increase Customers from digital.
Drive foot traffic during off-peak hours via targeted promos.
