Red Robin Gourmet Burgers has replaced its top executive.

Red Robin on Thursday said David Pace, who had been chairman since November 2019, has stepped in as president and chief executive, succeeding G.J. Hart, who had been at the helm of the Englewood, Colo., restaurant chain since September 2022.

Red Robin said Hart will remain in advisory capacity through September to assist with the transition, after which he will depart with severance that includes 18 months of his base pay, or $1.8 million.

The company said Anthony Ackil, a board member since 2020, succeeds Pace as chairman.

Red Robin said Pace, who will remain a member of the board, will receive an annual base salary of $750,000 and an annual bonus with a target of 200% of his base pay.
