Another Seafood restaurant would be nice. I think Bonefish is over-rated. Oops---did I say something negative?

Yes, it's the owners of Evan's Prairie, Bonifay & Scooples. A steakhouse isn't something they are looking at. Whatever it is, I'm sure will be great.

I would really doubt if a Brazillian style steakhouse would attempt a place here. They usually cost around $40 or more for the dinner and Villagers (main customers for a restaurant here) do not like paying that much - or eating that much. Those places do not provide boxes for leftovers, either!

Yummy for sure but this type of eatery will be pricey, not the type of place one will be able to frequent often.
And the brazilian steakhouses i have seen that are on the less expensive side, are usually not worth it.
Let's cross our fingers and hope this one will be decent and gooood.....

Not sure how Eaton's got in this post...Food at Eaton's is very good however service is hit and miss. Drinks are overpriced. If you go, try the gumbo...it is to die for!

I sure could go for a Joe's Crab Shack! Am sure that would be a big hit at Lake Sumter Landing.

Sure would love to see something new other than what we already have. A Joe's crab shack would fill that bill .... even Captain D's for that matter. Even better would be a White Castle!!!

You can forget about all the other chains. Ain't gonna happen. Already has owners.

We went this past Saturday night. Arrived at 5:15 - food was in front of us at 7:10. Food wasn't bad, but not good enough to wait 2 hours.

A third Mojos would be the best! Save plenty of people the drive.
