These dining-room droids were certainly eye-catching.
Some even sang to guests.
“The robotics were slower than what our servers can do,” Hochman explained.
“And they kind of get in the way.”
That’s three times faster than it would take a human chef (9.5 minutes).
At locations testing out the new equipment, steak complaints are “getting close to zero.”
What about a cheeseburger?
It used to take a human chef about five minutes to cook a burger on Chili’s old equipment.
The new grill can prepare the very same burger in roughly two minutes.
In other words, no flipping needed!
“It’s a game changer for our business,” Hochman added.
Customers are taking note, too.
“Have you changed chefs?”
One patron recently asked a general manager at the Chili’s location in Manhattan Beach, California.
