Recently opened restaurants in the Philadelphia area

Many families around the country have traditions involving restaurants, whether it's returning to the same spot year after year for birthdays, Sunday morning brunches at a favorite local diner, or Friday night pies at a neighborhood pizza place.

While plenty of diners like to visit the same restaurants every year, every month, or even every week, others also want to try something new. Consumers today are "looking for new flavor experiences that excite their palates and provide a respite from their daily routines," Stacey Kinkaid, the vice president of product development and innovation at US Foods, said in a statement. "The trend of global flavors demonstrates this as diners look for discovery and escape from the ordinary."

US Foods, a major domestic food service distributor, surveyed 1,005 people who reflect the demographic makeup of the general American population about their dining out and takeout habits in 2024. They found that the average American dines out about five times per month, up from three times in 2023. That translates to about $191 a month on restaurant meals for the average American, up 15% from 2023.

As for what types of restaurants Americans tend to dine in, at the top of the list is casual dining (69%), followed by fast food (55%) and fast casual (55%). Contemporary casual (38%) and bar and grills (30%) round out the top five.
