atmosphere. Except for buffet-style restaurants, casual dining restaurants typically provide table service. Casual dining comprises a market segment between fast food establishments and fine dining restaurants. In the United States, the bill per diner at a casual dining restaurant usually averages $10 - $30 for an evening meal and slightly less for lunch, as of 2004
A fast casual restaurant is a type of restaurant which is
similar to a fast-food restaurant in that it does not offer full table
service, but promises a somewhat higher quality of food and atmosphere. It
is a growing concept to fill the space between fast-food and casual
dining.
Counter service accompanied by handmade food (often visible via an open
kitchen) is typical. Alcohol may be served. Dishes like steak, which
require experience on the part of the cook to get right, may be offered.
The menu is usually limited to an extended over-counter display, and
options in the way the food is prepared are emphasized. Health-conscious
items have a larger than normal portion of the menu, and some restaurants
may emphasize high quality ingredients like free range chicken and freshly
made salsas; Overall, the quality of the food is presented as much higher
than conventional factory-made fast food. While full table service is not
offered, conveniences like non-plastic utensils and plates are common.
Fine dining is a phrase used to describe restaurants that
create a serious dining experience. The experience can start with the
location and the view. The interior of such restaurants is often purported
to be quite elegant and designed in accordance with the restaurant's
concept. Service attempts to be impeccable, with chefs and service crew
typically hailing from the best culinary schools.
Restaurants fitting the fine dining label are normally highly rated; in
the four star range and will provide more nuanced service and more
expensive food than a standard sit-down restaurant.
