The parent company of Olive Garden and LongHorn Steakhouse said it expects sales this year to outperform pre-pandemic levels, though it continues to feel pressure from inflation, staffing constraints and other operational challenges.

Darden Restaurants Inc. on Thursday projected sales of about $9.4 billion to $9.6 billion in fiscal 2022, which ends in May. That compares with sales of $7.2 billion in 2021 and $7.81 billion in 2020.
