WASHINGTON (dpa-AFX) - Darden Restaurants, Inc., (DRI) and Uber Technologies, Inc. (UBER) announced Thursday that Cheddar's Scratch Kitchen is the next Darden brand to pilot on-demand delivery.
Cheddar's is currently conducting the pilot in 10 restaurants. It's guests can order delivery directly through the Cheddar's website and app, while Uber Direct will handle deliveries through Uber's national delivery network.

We've heard excellent feedback from Olive Garden operators on the benefits and ease of integrating Uber Direct into their operations, and are confident our teams can deliver the same benefits for Cheddar's operators, their team members, and guests.'
