Darden highlights Chuy's growth as Chuy's Holdings stock is delisted

Darden Restaurants highlighted Chuy's positive same-restaurant sales on September 24, 2026, while Eulerpool listed Chuy's Holdings as delisted on September 21, 2026. The combination puts the restaurant brand's operating progress in a different context from the former public-market listing.

Chuy's keeps positive sales

According to The Motley Fool on September 24, 2026, Darden said Chuy's was the only brand in its history to deliver positive same-restaurant sales during its first full year of integration. Management also described Chuy's as a high-growth-potential brand within the portfolio.

The comparison is important because Darden said the other brands it acquired posted negative same-restaurant sales during their first full year. Chuy's therefore stood apart on the operating measure that tracks sales at established restaurants, even as Darden continued working on consistency across locations.

Darden expands the operating base

Darden's fiscal first-quarter report dated September 24, 2026, showed total sales of USD 3.2 billion, up 5.10 percent from USD 3.0 billion in the prior-year quarter, according to Darden Restaurants. The company's other-business segment, which includes Chuy's and Cheddar's, advanced 4.50 percent during the quarter.

Darden has also set a concrete timetable for the next operating update. Its fiscal second-quarter 2027 results are scheduled for December 18, 2026, before the market opens, according to Investing.com.

Former listing, continuing brand

Chuy's entered Darden's portfolio through the October 2024 acquisition of Chuy's Holdings. The September 2026 operating commentary shows that the brand remains part of Darden's growth plans, with market selection and restaurant consistency central to the strategy.

For the former CHUY listing, the decisive distinction is between brand performance and public ownership. Darden's reported figures describe the operating business, while the September 2026 market record identifies Chuy's Holdings as delisted.
