Leases [Abstract]  
Leases 8. Leases

We determine if a contract contains a lease at inception. Our material operating leases consist of restaurant locations and office space. Our leases generally have remaining terms of 1-20 years and most include options to extend the leases for additional 5-year periods. Generally, the lease term is the minimum of the noncancelable period of the lease or the lease term inclusive of reasonably certain renewal periods up to a term of 20 years.

In April 2020, the FASB issued guidance allowing entities to make a policy election whether to account for lease concessions related to the COVID-19 pandemic as lease modifications. The election applies to any lessor-provided lease concession related to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, provided the concession does not result in a substantial increase in the rights of the lessor or in the obligations of the lessee. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, we have received non-substantial concessions from certain landlords in the form of rent deferrals and abatements. We have elected to not account for these rent concessions as lease modifications. The recognition of rent concessions did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2020.
