A recent online survey was conducted to find out America's favorite chain restaurants.

The survey collected 4,805 responses from diners about their experiences with more than 173 brands nationwide.

The results show that we love us some cheesecake, or rather a place that does that and a lot of other things really well.

Check out the top 10. Oh, to be specific, this survey was specifically about "casual dining" restaurants:

  1. Cheesecake Factory
  2. The Melting Pot
  3. Bonefish Grill
  4. Red Lobster
  5. Romano's Macaroni Grill
  6. Carrabba's Italian Grill
  7. Olive Garden
  8. Ninety Nine Restaurant and Pub
  9. Mellow Mushroom Pizza
  10. Chevy's Fresh Mex

It looks like Lafayette has only four of the top 10. Oh but don't worry, I'm sure some of these others are coming our way. (I'd especially love a Melting Pot!)
