I was invited to check out the new menu at Jimmy Buffett’s Margaritaville located at the Horseshoe Casino in Cincinnati.

This was my first time visiting Horseshoe Casino. During a visit, guests can choose outdoor seating with a view or indoor dining.

Inside dining gives you a fun atmosphere with bright colors, palm trees and laid back music.

Guest can enter through the casino or if you have guests under 21 there is an outside entrance as well. We started off by trying the margaritas. There is something for everyone on the drink menu.

Next, we tried several appetizers.

Grilled Shrimp Skewers 

(Jerk-glazed shrimp dusted with sugared coconut served with pineapple)

They were perfectly seasoned to perfection and the piece of pineapple was delicious.

My friend’s boyfriend got Jimmy’s Jammin’ Jambalaya. ( Cajun rice loaded with shrimp, chicken and Andouille sausage simmered in a spicy broth.) He said it had a great mix of spice and flavor.
