Look at the complaints on TOTV about restaurants. They range from too expensive at Cody's to being angry that they were charged for bringing their own Crystal Light to the restaurant.

Sorry, but the upscale restaurant would not work here.
I respectfully disagree. With over 130,000 residents here plus the surrounding communities, it would work even you only went once every other month. I get it might not be everyone's cup of tea but for a lot of us who savor GOOD food and drink served in a relaxing, fine dining atmosphere, it would be better than an hour run to Orlando.
