Business Description

Chuy's Holdings Inc. was founded in Austin, Texas in 1982 and incorporated in November 2006. The Company is a full-service restaurant concept offering a distinct menu of authentic, freshly-prepared Mexican and Tex Mex inspired food. Currently it operates 32 Chuy's restaurants across Texas, Tennessee, Kentucky, Alabama, Indiana, Georgia and Oklahoma. The Company's restaurants have a common décor, but each location is unique in format, offering an 'unchained' look and feel, as expressed by its motto 'If you've seen one Chuy's, you've seen one Chuy's!' It offers the same core menu during lunch and dinner, which was created using recipes from families and friends of its founders, and includes enchiladas, fajitas, tacos, burritos, combination platters and daily specials, complemented by a variety of appetizers, soups and salads. Each of its restaurants also offers a variety of homemade sauces made from scratch daily in every restaurant, including the signature Hatch green chile and creamy jalapeño sauces, all of which provide its customers with an added ability to customize their orders. While the layout in each of its restaurants varies, it maintains distinguishable elements across its locations, including hand-carved, hand-painted wooden fish imported from Mexico, a variety of vibrant Mexican folk art, a "Nacho Car" that provides complimentary chips, salsa and chile con queso in the trunk of a classic car, vintage hubcaps hanging from the ceiling, colorful hand-made floor and wall tile and festive metal palm trees. The Company's restaurants range in size from 5,300 to 12,500 square feet, with seating for approximately 225 to 400 customers. Nearly all of its restaurants feature outdoor patios. It designs its restaurants to have flexible seating arrangements that allow it to cater to families and parties of all sizes. It also offers a full-service bar in all of its restaurants providing its customers a wide variety of beverage offerings, featuring a selection of specialty cocktails including its signature on-the-rocks margaritas made with fresh, hand-squeezed lime juice and the Texas Martini, a made-to-order, hand-shaken cocktail served with jalapeño-stuffed olives. The Company's brand strategy of having an 'unchained' look and feel allows its restaurants to establish their own identity and provides it with a flexible real estate model, which includes ground-up prototypes and conversions of existing structures. The Company's restaurants are open for lunch and dinner seven days a week, serving approximately 7,500 customers per location per week or 400,000 customers per location per year, on average. It has developed and refined the following strengths: Fresh, Authentic Mexican Cuisine; Exceptional Dining Value with Broad Customer Appeal; Upbeat Atmosphere Coupled with Appealing, Irreverent Brand Helps Differentiate Concept; Deep Rooted and Inspiring Company Culture; Proven, Flexible Business Model with Industry Leading Unit Economic
