History
Darden Restaurants was founded by Bill Darden when he was just 19 years old. The first restaurant he opened was a 25-seat luncheonette in Waycross, Georgia called The Green Frog. Darden's first chain restaurant, Red Lobster, was opened in Lakeland, Florida in 1968. In 1970, General Mills acquired Red Lobster and expanded it nationwide. In 1995, General Mills spun off its restaurant division into Darden Restaurants.
