What Restaurant is Lakeland Missing?

It seems a few times each year there is a small celebration that Lakeland 'got' one of 'those' restaurants. You know, one of the major chains has decided to open a location in Lakeland. There is always much fanfare and anticipation of the new eatery.

Remember when Lakeland 'got' an Outback Steakhouse or the cheers when Carraba's arrived? How about the first Quiznos? Too long ago for you? How about some more recent examples like Bonefish Grill, Smokey Bones BBQ or Panera Bread?

When the new Lakeside Village was announced, rumors surfaced that The Cheesecake Factory or P.F. Chang's would come to Lakeland. No luck yet.

So what restaurant are we missing? Leave a comment below.

Or perhaps you want the chains to stay away so that local restaurants can thrive in their absence.
