Executive summary
AI answer engines now help Indians choose where to grab fast food. We ran 25 questions across five quick service restaurant categories with live web search, then recorded every brand named and every source cited. The run produced 375 citations from 199 unique domains.
Global chains lead. McDonald's scores 44.8 percent and is named on 14 of 25 questions, ahead of Domino's at 29.6 percent, Burger King at 22.4 percent and KFC at 20.8 percent. Housing.com, a property portal, ranks sixth at 13.6 percent.
The sharper finding sits in the sources. Not one of 375 citations comes from a fast food chain's own website. A property portal, company data sites and trade press answer which chain is best, while software and coupon firms answer much of the rest.
Top 10 brands by AI visibility score
| # | Brand | Type | Visibility | Share |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | McDonald's | QSR chain | 44.8% | |
| 2 | Domino's | QSR chain | 29.6% | |
| 3 | Burger King | QSR chain | 22.4% | |
| 4 | KFC | QSR chain | 20.8% | |
| 5 | Swiggy | Food delivery app | 14.4% | |
| 6 | Housing.com | Property portal | 13.6% | |
| 7 | Zomato | Food delivery app | 11.2% | |
| 8 | FSSAI | Regulator | 10.4% | |
| 9 | magicpin | Deals app | 8.8% | |
| 10 | Pizza Hut | QSR chain | 8.0% |
Visibility score method: each question ranks five entities. Rank one earns 1.00 point, rank two 0.80, down to 0.20 for rank five. Scores are totaled across 25 questions and divided by 25. Every entity named is ranked, whatever its type.
Type shows what kind of organization each entity is. AI engines name delivery apps, a property portal, company data sites, software firms, coupon apps, regulators and even unrelated foreign firms alongside fast food chains. All of them are ranked here, because all of them take up space in the answer.
Top 25 cited domains
These 25 domains are the most cited across all 25 questions and carry 39.5 percent of all citations. Restaurant India leads by a wide margin, followed by Housing.com, food guides, CB Insights and Petpooja. No fast food chain's own website appears anywhere in the report.

Categories and why we chose them
We chose five categories that follow a fast food customer from picking a chain to ordering, paying and knowing their rights. Each one draws real search demand, carries commercial value for the chains, and pushes an AI engine to name specific brands rather than give general advice.
| # | Category name | Reason for selection |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Choosing a fast food chain | This is where the habit forms. People ask which fast food chain is best overall, and which is best for burgers, pizza, fried chicken and Indian fast food. Whoever wins these answers becomes the default choice when hunger strikes. |
| 2 | Menu and diet | Menus decide who can eat where. Questions about vegetarian, healthy and Jain options, breakfast and food for children test whether engines connect chains to the needs of Indian families, in a market where diet shapes every order. |
| 3 | Prices and deals | Fast food is a price led market. Questions about the cheapest chain, value meals, deals, loyalty programs and pizza prices show which chains engines link to value, and who else, from coupon sites to banks, shapes that advice. |
| 4 | Ordering and service | Service is now about speed and apps. Questions about fast delivery, the best app, round the clock outlets, drive thrus and own app versus delivery app prices show where the chains compete with the platforms that deliver for them. |
| 5 | Rules and rights | This category covers the rules at the counter: carry bag charges, GST, calorie and allergen display, trans fat limits and complaints. These answers decide trust, and regulators, courts and law firms compete with the chains for them. |
Category 1 of 5
