Jimmy Buffett's Margaritaville Review

The laid-back atmosphere may take you away to paradise, but the noise level after 4pm makes it futile for Parrot Heads and plain folk alike to try to talk with their table-mates. But most people come to Margaritaville in the evenings to party, not to participate in deep conversation. Come for lunch if you want to actually speak with your fellow diners during your meal. The back "Porch of Indecision" offers the quietest spot in the place to dine. Despite the Cheeseburgers in Paradise (yes, they're on the menu at $8-$9), the menu has Caribbean leanings and includes jerk salmon and Jimmy's Jammin' Jambalaya. While it's not contending for a critic's choice award, it's fairly tasty grub. But watch the tab: At $7 to $9 a pop for margaritas, the bill can climb to $50 or more per person for a routine meal that includes the jerk chicken or crab cakes. If you don't hanker for margaritas, the drink menu is almost as long as the main menu and features domestic and imported beer, as well as some unique tropical concoctions.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
