Bill Knapps
 
If they were still around, I would love to have one of their restaurants. Anyone from the Midwest remember Bill Knapps?

I'm in for Uno's. I'm from Chicago and drive to Winter park to get Uno's. Portillos would be nice but not big enough!!

YES....Abuelo's is awesome! It is a Mexican restaurant with some actual Mexican flavor....and I am not talking hot and spicy, which would never go over here. Their food just has a lot of flavor. Most Mexican restaurants in Florida are so bland.

There was a Bill Knapps on High St. in Worthington. It was always busy and the food and desserts were great. Families filled the place every evening. The chain then sold and the new owners from out west decided they were smarter than the previous owners. They soon filed bankruptcy.
I get the feeling that the new owners/management bunch at Bob Evans are going to take that chain down sooner, rather than later.

Any restaurant opening anywhere needs to appeal to its anticipated customer base if it is to successfully develop and maintain a prosperous business.

That being the case just what are the demographics at Sumter Landing both seasonal and year round?

What are the food preferences, tastes and budgets of the target market: Villagers, visitors and folks residing nearby who dine out regularly?

That would be great, with a few vegetarian choices.

I've seen lots of folks suggest major chains like Brio, Bravo or Cheesecake Factory. Remember these are all corporate stores and the all look the same inside and out. These all might be good if they were taking over something the size of Barnes and Noble. In my opinion, the limited square footage will drastically limit the choices for that location.

Red Robin. Best burgers money can buy. Modestly priced.
