Red Robin Gourmet Burgers Inc. has announced the company&rsquo;s Q1 financials, and the results are, according to CEO Denny Marie Post, &ldquo;a mixed bag.&rdquo;

As <a href="http://www.nrn.com/casual-dining/red-robin-premise-sales-rise-nearly-40?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=nrn-red-robin-off-premise-sales-rise-nearly-40-percent-2706615" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">reported by Nation&rsquo;s Restaurant News</a>, the full-service franchise&rsquo;s off-premise sales, including to-go and catering sales, were up 40 percent compared to Q1 2017. In-store sales did not see the same incline, with same-store sales down 0.9 percent year over year and overall traffic rising just 0.1 percent.

Post says Red Robin will look to capitalize on the growth of the company&rsquo;s off-premise sales with new marketing campaigns.

&ldquo;We just began testing television advertising in select high-penetration markets, and we like what we see early on from the results,&rdquo; Post said. &ldquo;With off-premise averaging 9.4-percent mix in Q1, double-digit mix is clearly within the reach as we grow this segment aggressively.&rdquo;
