Our roots trace back to 1975 when Chili’s, Inc. was started in Dallas, TX as a neighborhood restaurant that served quality food in a casual atmosphere. In 1983, Chili’s was acquired by Norman Brinker, a leader in the restaurant Industry, and in 1991 we changed our name to Brinker International to reflect our growing restaurant portfolio.

Today, Brinker has more than 100,000 employees and over 1,600 restaurants, including Chili’s Grill & Bar, Chili’s Too, Romano’s Macaroni Grill, On the Border Mexican Grill & Cantina, and Maggiano’s Little Italy.

Brinker is routinely recognized as one of the best-managed and most progressive companies in the restaurant industry. We’ve received numerous awards and accolades that celebrate our commitment.

As we look ahead, we see a bright future where we will continue to draw upon the creative ideas of our people in developing trendsetting dining experiences.
