Weak economies tend to make people reluctant to eat at restaurants as they rather choose to stay home to eat in an effort to cut down on discretionary expenses. Consumer spending is yet to fully recover and restaurant visits reflect this. However, this trend from consumers has not completely prevented restaurants from seeing success. Niche restaurant chains that provide high capital returns on investments are faring well. Restaurants outperforming the industry also have higher quantities of restaurants with strong spending per visit averages.

The consumer spending/restaurant visit corollary is an important one to track but food commodity prices are also pivotal to the industry's success. Ingredient prices are rising and margins narrowing for the bulk of the restaurant industry. Chicken, beef and produce costs are up but fortunately not to the levels seen in 2009.

Overall, with consumer spending still down, there are more losers than winners in the restaurant industry at the moment. Consumers are still more likely to eat at home or visit a low cost fast food chain for a quick chow.

One of the best ways to evaluate the performance of a company remains how it has performed financially. With the ongoing earnings season still echoing some of the macroeconomic issues of the past few months, some restaurants stocks like Chipotle Mexican Grill Inc. posted impressive results with Q2 2010 earnings per share of $1.46 on revenues of $466.8 million.
