Reviews for The Original Margaritaville in Sandusky, OH
Eeeww! When you walk in, it smells musty and like mildew. We should have left. We sat by the waterfall and it was filthy. The... food was not good. This was not like any Margaritaville I have eaten at. And yes I know this is the original. This was ahorrible experience. I wish I could give zero stars. Read more
The MOST uncomfortable booths. We were seated at a broken booth with visible nails sticking out. Not what I picture when I hear... 'original' margaritaville. Having been to other margaritaville's the atmosphere was a disappointment. When you walk in itssmells musty, and you have to walk down a flight of not well lit stairs to even enter the restaurant. There is a waterfalloutside which would have been nice to have been seated by, but instead we weren't asked other than table or booth and wereplaced in the corner. Appetizer came out quickly, although it was tough. Food was OK, daughter thought the burger tasted weird.Our server would have known had he come back to check on us. Have never been here before and would not return. Read more
This place is really big and really cold! Women may need an additional shirt or light coat. They have great waterviews including... a handful of windows views of a waterfall. Overall it is pretty clean but the bathrooms need some work. I had a brisket andmacaroni sandwich which was a 5 out of 5. My son has a BBQ burger - 4 out of 5, daughter a burger 4 out of 5, wife a Cuban 3 outof 5. This is one of the few places still open at 9pm that isn't a bar. We all agreed we would return. Read more
The setting is like no other. You are sitting next to a huge waterfall. Our waiter was slow and made a simple trip into... multiples. When we asked to order our food with the drinks he oddly said hold on and then left. We were one of two in the areaso they were not busy. The food was good but forgettable. I give this restaurant four stars because I was served the beststrawberry margarita of my life. I ???? margaritas. We will be back because my life revolves around margaritas! Did I mentionthe margaritas? Read more

We enjoyed our dinner selections and the nice lay back comfortable atmosphere. We decided to sit in one of the booths by the... windows that look out at the waterfall. Our waitress was polite and pretty on the ball with refilling drinks and getting thefood order correct and quick. The music that was playing at just the right volume was classic rock which was very enjoyable tous. As for the food it was very good and nicely seasoned with good portions.( see pictures ) It's a great place to go during theoff season winter time when there's no large crowds like it was today. ????

After a fun-filled day at Cedar Point, we decided to stop here for dinner before driving back home to Toledo. It was our first... time at any location so we were not sure what to expect. I'll be completely honest and upfront - I had an issue with mobilityinside the restaurant in that if you want to eat indoors, you have to go downstairs and if you want to eat on the deck, you haveto go upstairs - both extremely difficult for someone using a wheelchair. Once we were seated, we met our server, Micala who wasPHENOMENAL!! She was so friendly, made great drink suggestions, and was incredibly attentive. The food.....OH MY GOD!!!!!!! Westarted with BBQ smothered fries (fries loaded with queso, pineapple salsa, cilantro, feta, and we chose smoked brisket. Theportion was HUGE! This easily could have been consumed by four people, we ate most of it with two. As I was the passenger, I wasable to have the Biker Girl Margarita. Let me start by saying, I have a love/hate relationship with tequila thanks to a night ofbinge drinking in Tijuana so for me to even THINK about ordering a margarita, took a little persuasion. Wow! That drink wentdown like a fat kid on a seesaw. I couldn't even smell the tequila which made them go down smooth. We each ordered the two meatplatter - he had brisket and pulled pork while I had brisket and smoked sausage. He had the standard sides - coleslaw and corn.The slaw was delicious. I opted to upgrade to onion rings and fried green tomatoes (a first for me). Both meals came withcornbread. My platter couldn't be finished so I ended up bringing a great deal of it home to eat for lunch today. Food, tax, andtip and we were out at $100. Despite the lack of accessibility, I will definitely be eating here again the next time we are upthat way. Read more
