Brian dines at fine dining restaurants for both business and personal occasions, values word of mouth recommendations above all else, and would rather make a reservation using OpenTable than over the phone. He’ s open to trying new restaurants for personal occasions, but prefers to stick to tried and true locations for business. Brian doesn’ t actively participate on social media, but does have a Facebook and Twitter account. He would share a post from a restaurant on his personal Facebook page if he saw a great deal or a cool event, like a wine or bourbon tasting.
“ It was weird to only be one of six people in Ruth’ s Chris during Happy Hour. And that was consistent, it wasn’ t just one time. It was empty. One of six people in a big place is a weird ambience. They don’ t advertise happy hour, so there weren’ t a lot of people there. It seemed like it wasn’ t even open.”
