본 연구는 Critical Incident Technique(CIT)를 이용하여 음식점에서 서비스 실패를 야기하는 결정적인 사건과 서비스 실패/복구수준과의 관계를 고찰해 보았다. 이와 더불어 불만족한 고객을 만족한 고객으로 전환시키는 데에 중요한 역할을 하는 고객이 바라는 복구와 점포 개선사항을 추가로 제시함으로써 실용적인 마케팅 접근을 시도하였다. 본 연구에서는 고객 불만족 원인이 서비스상품의 결함에 대부분 기인한다는 Hoffman et al. (1995)과 Tax et al. (1998)의 결과와는 달리 서비스 실패를 일으키는 주원인은 서비스제공자에게 있다는 흥미로운 결과를 얻을 수 있었다. 그 동안 국내의 많은 서비스관련 연구들이 서비스 만족과 불만족에 대해 양적 (quantitative)으로 접근한 것과는 달리 본 연구는 질적(qualitative) 접근을 시도하였다. 또한 본 연구는 CIT를 이용한 최초의 서비스 복구에 대한 연구이며, 기존의 연구들이 단순히 서비스 실패의 유형을 범주화하고 복구의 종류를 알아보는 것에 그치고 있는 데 반해 본 연구에서는 고객이 바라는 복구종류와 서비스 제공자의 개선 사항, 서비스 실패를 경험한 고객들의 구전활동에 관한 조사결과와 전략적 시사점도 함께 제시함으로써, 일선 관리자들이 본 연구의 결과를 기업의 마케팅전략 수립에 효과적으로 활용이 가능하다는 점에서 그 의의가 크다고 할 수 있다.
