INTRODUCTION:
This Essay explores a fast growing segment in the Hospotality industry known as
quick-casual restaurants. Two studies have been examined in order to ascertain
how to provide the best service quality to the Hospotality industry. These studies
are focused on resteraunt service quality and introduce theorys and concepts on
how to measure service quality and customers Behavioural Intentions
Kendall Cochrane 08201422
Primary Research has also been conducted to evaluate these studies and
provide an analysis of how the concepts and theories of the studies hold up in
real life senarios.
Article One
Article One was found in the Journal of Hospitality and Research and is based
around findings (both primary and secondary) researched by Kisang Ru and
Heesup Han. The study examines three main dimensions of service quality in
quick-casual restraunts.
Before going any further I feel it is important to address the definition of a “quick
casual restertaunt” as this is a new and fast growing category in the current food
industry.
Kisang Ru and Heesup define a quick casual restaurant as being
“a category that fills a restaurant niche between fast-food and full service”
People are beginning to eat out more and more and are looking for something
healthier then the main chain takeaways. Quick-Casual Restaurants provide two
options either healthy takeaway options or a full service sit down menu. Quick-
Kendall Cochrane 08201423
Sale restaurants generally have a high sales volume and target adult customers
with a middle to high income.
The three main dimensions studied in article include Price, Satisfaction and
Behavioral Intention
The specific objectives of the study were to:
(a) Investigate the combined influences of Perceived Quality of food, service,
and physical environment on customer satisfaction
(b) To examine the impact on customer satisfaction and behavioral intention
(c) To explore the moderating role of perceived price in relationships between
three dimensions of quality (quality of food, service and physical
environment) and customer satisfaction.
Kisang and Heesup conducted focus groups, pilot tests and a questionnaire to
asses the associations with food, service, price, physical environment and
customer satisfaction with quick casual restaurants. All items were assessed on a
7-point Likert scale and data quality testing and regression models were used
thoroughly in order to provide true quality results.
Kendall Cochrane 08201424
Results of the study indicted that customers of quick-service restaurants are most
influenced by quality of food followed by quality of physical environment and
quality of service.
This indicates that the taste and quality of food should be highly monitored in
order to provide the best customer satisfaction.
Therefore customer feedback is very important and quick-casual restaurants
should direct their focus to feedback about the food. This will also enable waiters
to develop relationships with the customers. Un-happy customers could be given
vouchers to the restaurant if they were not happy with their meals. This enables
the restaurant to get a second chance as the customer (depending on the amount
of dissatisfaction) will return to your restaurant to spend their voucher, where you
get a chance to persuade there thoughts of the restaurant and decline negative
word-of mouth.
When evaluating restaurants to eat for lunch or breakfast new customers
evaluate a restaurant on its tangible benefits, such as lighting, aroma,
atmosphere, and layout to analyze what they think the restaurant will deliver as
they are not able to actually taste the food until they decide to become a
customer.
Intangible benefits are difficult to monitor however Physical Environment is the
second most important factor contributing to customer satisfaction in a quick-
Kendall Cochrane 08201425
casual restaurant. For that reason quick-casual restaurant managers should
ensure that their décor reflects what the restaurant offers and has an inviting feel
to it. Clark and Wood argue, “tangible rather then intangible elements are of
greater importance in gaining customer loyalty and continued restaurant
patronage.
Although this conflicts with the results from the study (that quality of food is
considered more important then quality of physical environment) it is important to
note that results from the study were based on current customers rather then
potential new customers. I think it would be interesting to compare the two results
to see the difference in opinions, which can then be related to what the physical
environment is saying to both potential customers and current customers.
This study begins to understand the fundamental rules around quick-casual
restaurants. The way to satisfy customers is to provide a pleasant Physical
Environment (e.g., attractive interior design and décor, comfortable seats, high
quality of furniture, professional appearance of employee, and pleasant music,
lighting, color) It is important to remember that people don’t nessacerily want to
go somewhere that feels like home. For this reason, National Restaurant
Association’s (2001) restaurant industry forecast, showed restaurant operators
Kendall Cochrane 08201426
are investing more than ever before in restaurant design and décor as they strive
to create a setting that will set them apart from the competition.
From this standpoint quick-casual restaurants are then able to (with little cost)
create ambience though music, scent, lighting, and layout to create a
personalized competitive advantage. According to this study, by providing this
kind of Physical and Ambient environment and teaming it with high quality food
and service will equate in the highest level of customer satisfaction. Therefore
customers will be loyal and provide healthy word-of- mouth.

Dineserv: A Tool for Measuring Service Quality in Restaurants T. Vanniarajan
Article two looks at how current restaurants are offering high service quality to
ensure they have a competitive edge. “With increased disposable income,
growing urbanization and the impact of transport and communication have fuelled
a strong demand for restaurant services””. In a bid to provide customers with the
Kendall Cochrane 08201427
high level of service quality restaurants are looking for any way to be noticed by
the crowd. Wait staff are also highly trained in there bid to receive repeat
customers.
This study focuses on one of the main concepts used today in service quality in
retseraunts. DINESEV. http://cqx.sagepub.com/content/36/2/56.abstract
DINSERV is considered one of the most reliable, relatively simple tool for
determining how customers view a restaurant quality. DINSERV is a concept
derived from the SERVQUAL model which is designed to measure service quality
in specifically “restaurants”. http://books.google.co.nz/books?id=qBXliZ6-

CwQ6AEwAw#v=onepage&q=servqual%20vs%20DINESERV&f=false
DINSERV is a 29 item questionnaire. It contains 5 categories. The 5 variables of
the DINSERV model are:
1.Reliability: ability to perform the promised service dependably and accurately
2.Employee attitude: Knowledge and courtesy of employees and their abilty to
convey trust and confidence
Kendall Cochrane 08201428
3.Responsiveness: willingness to help customers and prvide a prompt service
4.Empathy: Caring individualized attention
5.Physical attributes of the facility: Physical facilities, equipment and appearance
of personnel.
By having customers awnser these questionnaires allows a manager to look at
how their customers view the restaurants service quality and allow them to make
changes to parts which need to improved.
Although, have you ever been to a café or restaurant and had to fill out a
questionnaire? This is because measuring Service Quality in restaurants is a
fairly new subject in the service quality sector. Many developments in Service
Quality in restaurants has been derived or can be compared to results from
Service Quality in Hotels.
Kendall Cochrane 08201429
This study also provides insight into how important Relationship Quality is to a
restaurant and (see figure one shown below)
Figure One was created by Kin et al. (2006) and examines the predictors and
outcomes of relationship quality with reference to the luxury restaurant industry.

Food Quality Relationship Benefits
Customer Orientation Price Fairness
i) Physical Environment: This demonstrates the importance of physical
facilities for achieving the perceived level of service quality provided by
restaurants. (Stevens et al., 1995). Tangibles such as décor, dinning
area comfort, and cleanliness, furnitures and fixtures, rest rooms and
parking areas were all shown to have impact on perceived service
quality (Garbarino and Johnson, 1999).
ii) Food Quality
This is indicative of the taste and freshness of the food supplied and the standard
of hygiene maintained in preparing the same by the restaurants (Mattila, 2001).
Mac Laurin and Mac Laurin (2000) concluded that food quality was one of nine
important elements for theme restaurants in Singapore. It is an important factor
for developing customer satisfaction and loyalty within the restaurant industry.
iii) Customer Orientation
This component represents the knowledge about customers, courtesy and
Kendall Cochrane 082014211
empathy
January - April 2009 Vol. 4 Issue 3
(Fornell et al., 1996) among the dining staff and customers loyalty (Gustafsson et
al., 2005). A customer oriented dining staff will have a positive influence on
customers trust and commitment (Bore and Johnson, 2000).
iv) Communication Level
It reveals the interaction and conversation with familiar receptionists (Scanlan and
Mc Phail, 2000). Jeyacharan et al., (2005) suggest that relational information
processes which enable customers to communicate easily with the organization
are likely to enhance customer satisfaction. The ability of customers to
communicate with a service provider enhances co- operation and trust between
them during the relationship building process (Parsons, 2002).
v) Relationship Benefits
This refers to the benefits that customers are likely to receive as a result of having
a long term relationship with a service provider (Reynolds and Beatty, 1999).
Gwrinner et al. (1998) revealed that risk reduction, friendship, personal
recognition, rapport and special treatment were all benefits of maintaining a long-
term relationship with an organization.
Kendall Cochrane 082014212
vi) Price Fairness
Price fairness indicates reasonable prices of the food items served in a restaurant
compared to those charged by the competitive firms which maintain the same
qualitative standards. Notably, it is the psychological factor that plays an
important role in determining consumers’ reactions to the prevailing price (Kim et
al., 2006). Oh (2000) suggested that price fairness has a positive impact on a
customer’s purchaseintention. Ramaweera and Neely (2003) observed that
‘perceived reasonable price’ has a positive influence on customer retention.
You may notice that these 5 factors are very similar to those in the DINESERV
model, this is because Relationship Quality heavily relates to DINESERV. The
relationship the restaurant has with the customer is very important in providing a
high-level of service quality.
When entering a new restaurant a customer will already have a perceived quality
in what they expect the restaurant can offer. By making the customer feel
comfortable, welcome, and by providing a price they feel comfortable with is a
great way to entice new customers to your store. Staff should also be trained in
giving the same service quality to EVERY customer. New customers are just as
important (if not more important) then current customers, they are the people who
Kendall Cochrane 082014213
are going to spread Word of Mouth nearly immediately after dining.
Comparison of Article One and Two
Article One focuses on the quality of food, quality of physical environment and
quality of service in a quick casual restaurant environment. This Article mainly
focuses on new customers and how to entice and keep them.
The study compares to Article Two by providing more information some of the
main variable in the DINESERV model in realation to new customers.
The results from Article One infur how important each factor if the DINESERV
model is. Quality of food being top of the list closely followed by physical
environment and quality of service.
However Article One did not look into the Relationship benefits that highly effect
service quality. This may be because the relationship with the customer is hard to
keep consistent, as there are many different cultures and such a variety of people
that one kind of service may not fit the next person in line.
I feel it important for the front of house staff to be able to distinguish the difference
between customers and try to meet there expectations as best possible.
Kendall Cochrane 082014214
For example, a family of four who arrive for lunch should be treated differently
then a person who comes in for a takeaway coffee. This does not mean that
because the family will spend more money that they should have priority of
service. Instead its about analyzing which type of service they expect.
For the takeaway coffee customer this may be a fast service, with quality coffee
at a good price, with a barista that they can trust every morning to make quality
coffee.
For the family of four they would most likely be expecting table service, a smiling
informative waiter, something to entertain the kids and a fair priced menu.
In conclusion both Article One and Two show similar concepts and Theories and
together show a good understanding of how to measure service quality in a
restaurant. By increasing effectiveness in the 5 variables of the DINESERV model
should allow both new and current customers to be continually happy ad for the
business owner gain a better competitive advantage.

Analysis of a Service in the Hospitality Industry
From the findings above I have decided to take the DINSERV concept to the
Sitting Duck Café located in the West Haven Marina, Auckland. The Sitting Duck
café is a quick – casual restaurant, they sell pies, sandwiches, Panini’s, slices
and biscuits all to eat in or takeaway. They also offer a full sit down service and
which offers a range of delicious seafood chowders, venison sausage spaghetti
and ceaser salads to name a few which may be served with wine beer or fresh
juices.
This quick-casual restaurant is open from 7am till 4pm weekdays and 4.30 on the
weekends. This allows for the resteraunt to catch the early morning workers
around the westhaven marina to come in including suitable lunches for people to
take out on their yaughts.
I devised a DINSERV model to analyze The Sitting Duck café, I also am going to
include a pre purchase evaluation questionnaire to asses what new customers
pre expectations are to the café and continue to recommendations on what I think
would make improvements.
Kendall Cochrane 082014216
The DINSERV Questionnaire I have formulated is a 5 point Likert Scale. It used
the same 5 variables as shown previously (Reliability, Employee attitude,
Responsiveness, Empathy, Physical attributes of the facility)
There will be 3 questions per variable.
The Questionnaire can be found in Appendix One. The Questionnaire was tested
on 20 people. Ten of which were new customers, 10 who had been there before.
The Likert scale was used to be able to analyze customer’s feelings about certain
areas. The scale used in a Likert model is a bipolar scale respondents are asked
to rate the level at which they agree or disagree with a given statement. A Likert
scale is used to measure attitudes, preferences, and subjective reactions.
I chose The Sitting Duck Café as my establishment to do this assignment as I
regularly go there for coffee on a Sunday morning. I chose to evaluate the
business in 5 different encounters using the DINESERV model. In conjunction
with this I asked 10 current customers and 10 potential customers. I noticed that a
lot of people walk dogs, job and cycle around this area so potential customers
were easy to find. To define a potential customer, this is; a person who has a
similar need or want and who might be willing and able to in exchange satisfy that
need or want. http://www.usingenglish.com/forum/ask-teacher/34042-who-
potential-customer.html
Kendall Cochrane 082014217
Also potential customers are people who have not already been a customer so it
was interesting to analyze the difference between customer expectations and
Current Customer Evaluations. I decided to make two questinaares to cater to the
different respondents; current customers will be surveyed using the variables of
the DINESERV model, and potential customers will be evaluated using the
concepts focused towards customer pre perceptions and expectations.
Findings Part One – Potential Customers
A second questionnaire was made to analyse the pre purchase expectations and analysis of the physical environment at The Sitting Duck Café. The physical environment is an important indicator when selecting a new resteraunt.The questionaare and its results can be found in Appendix 3.The questionaare was tested on 10 potentail customers who had not eaten at the Sitting Duck Café.The Questionaare was tested using a 5 point Likert Scale. This questionaare was based around three concepts presented in Article one, customers are most effected by the quality of food followed by quality of physical environment and quality of service. This will be measured in terms of pre expectations. Find results below:
Potential Customer Questionaare ResultsQuality of foodPerceived food quality Poor/AverageFamily environment ExcellentImpress Friends PoorQuality of Physical EnvironmentInviting and comfortable PoorRelaxing AverageFurniture Quality PoorQuality of ServiceEmployee presentation Excellent
Helpful and SkilledAverage/Excellent
Happy Employees Excellent Results from these finding shows that customers pre perceptations and expextations are very low. When looking at the resteraunt potential customers thought it had poor food quality, cheap prices, poor furniture quality and would’nt show the place off to friends. This is a big worry for the sitting duck. If current
Kendall Cochrane 082014218
customers feel the same they are more likely to get small individual meals for people who cant afford much, rather then big tables of people who like to take there time and in term end up spending more money. When relating this to the reults from current customers you can see that the Physical Quality Attributes are very low on both scales. This is a cause for concern and is developed more in depth in the recommendations section of this assignment.
By linking these results to a customer value model may help The Sitting Duck Management to work towards better results in potential customers.The framework below shows how to develop and deliver customer value

The Findings of current customers can be viewed in Appendix 3. From these results I have developed a table to show the major trends that the results have shown. Results have been divided into 3 categories:
Poor Average Excellent
This reflects the general outcome of each variable in the DINESERV model.Please find the table below:

Physical AttributesQ13 - Presentation, layout, aroma, music PoorQ14 - Quality Equipment Poor
Q15 - Presentable EmployeesExcellent
Although this is a very general reading (there would have been time and quality constraints if a proper sized survey was developed) however, it is obvious to see some problem areas at The Sitting Duck Café.The one major issue this survey returned was the Physical Attributes of the café, where presentation, layout, aroma, music and quality of equipment all had poor results. I agree with the feedback from this. According to Article One Physical Attributes are one of the most important factors in gaining the best customer satisfaction. So why is The Sitting Duck still running?You may also note that The Sitting Duck has excellent food quality. This is the most important factor in creating customer satisfaction, therefore fight food quality along with the great location, helpful and welcoming waiters provide The Sitting Duck with a good overall service quality.
Another main indicator of service quality is the Price. For me as a student price is the main indicator on whether I will be a repeat customer or not. Whether my expectations of the overall service is high enough to feel that is it worthy to spend my money on. Obviously everybody is not in my financial situation and therefore my opinion maybe varied then people who are in the yaughting and boating
Kendall Cochrane 082014220
industry. Although after doing the DINESERV survey it seems other customers feel the same way. It is important to note that Price was only just qualified as poor. This may be caused from the lack of perceived quality.This links to the concept of disconfirmation of expectations. Current customers feel that there expectations don’t meet what they actually received, Therefore there maybe maybe dissatisfied customers.Expectations represent what the customers realistically believe they will receive. The resteraunt industry is fierce and many establishments seem to over promise and under deliver. The Expectations-confirmation theory posits that expectations, coupled with perceived performance, lead to post-purchase satisfaction. This effect is mediated through positive or negative disconfirmation between expectations and performance. If a product outperforms expectations (positive disconfirmation) post-purchase satisfaction will result. If a product falls short of expectations (negative disconfirmation) the consumer is likely to be dissatisfied (Oliver, 1980; Spreng et al. 1996).The four main constructs in the model are: expectations, performance, disconfirmation, and satisfaction. Expectations reflect anticipated behavior (Churchill and Suprenant, 1982). They are predictive, indicating expected product attributes at some point in the future (Spreng et al. 1996). Expectations serve as the comparison standard in ECT – what consumers use to evaluate performance and form a disconfirmation judgment (Halstead, 1999). Disconfirmation is hypothesized to affect satisfaction, with positive disconfirmation leading to satisfaction and negative disconfirmation leading to dissatisfaction.
A major debate within the marketing literature concerns the nature of the effect of disconfirmation on satisfaction. The root of the problem lies in the definition of predictive expectations as the comparison standard for perceived performance. In such case, the confirmation of negative expectations is not likely to lead to satisfaction (Santos and Boote 2003). To overcome this problem, researchers have proposed other comparison standards such as desires, ideals, equity, or past product and brand experience (see reviews by Halstead, 1999; Yi 1990 and analysis by Tse and Wilton, 1988. Also see Spreng et al. 1996; Woodruff et al., 1983).The model of the concept is presented below: http://www.istheory.yorku.ca/ect.htm
This model shows show important satisfying expectations and perceived performance are in creating satisfied of dissatisfied customers. If The Sitting Duck were to use this model they would most likely find that there lack of physical
Kendall Cochrane 082014221
attributes is the only major factor holding them from satisfied customers. This presses the issue on how important analyxing service quality is as it is easiler to understand what your missing, and why customers are continuously coming to dine with you.
