This research empirically analyzes the effects of service recovery justice on the post-recovery satisfaction
and loyalty based on the service recovery paradox in the family restaurant. To achieve this purpose, we
employ a field survey of family restaurant customers who experienced service failures and conduct an
empirical method utilizing evidence from 264 respondents. The findings present that distributive,
interactional, and procedural justices have a significant influence on the post-recovery satisfaction, which
positively affects on the loyalty. These results emphasize the service encounter management to establish a
positive service recognition for the customer who experienced a service recovery. Furthermore, this study
provides implications for managers and practitioners to maintain and improve the customer relationship
through the service recovery efforts considering all justices even if there is a service failure in the family
restaurant.
