Escape to Jimmy Buffett's Margaritaville, right in Destin. From a volcano flowing with margaritas to suspended airplanes, Margaritaville is more than a restaurant; it's a state of mind. Margaritaville has everything you need to have a good time: great island-inspired food, four unique bars, live music and two levels of outdoor seating. Chill out with a margarita on the Porch of Indecision. After dinner the laid-back tropical atmosphere transitions to a late night scene with dancing and live music every night of the week.

    Food was delicious! Outdoor seating is up against very busy road and was quite windy. Service was very kind, but it would’ve been helpful and upfront to know substitution charges as well as extra charge to use a credit card. Overall, a very pleasant experience

    Although we missed the sunset due to a colder/rainy day, the atmosphere, ambiance and decor of the restaurant was lovely and very welcoming. A very nice wine list and menu--so much to choose from. Our party of 8 had everything from the fresh grouper and crab cakes to filet to sushi to pasta and it was all super tasty. Nice portions and very well prepared and plated. A fantastic experience. Since it was the end of the weekend, they were out of our first wine selection, but were helpful in selecting something similar. And a few menu items were 86'd but again, they helped by making some nice substitutions. Although we selected to skip dessert, we were totally tempted by the Butter Cake. Overall, a fantastic dinner, in a great location...definitely see us going back!
