Cheeseburger in Paradise was a casual dining theme restaurant chain in the United States[2] that operated between 2002 and 2020. The chain started in 2002 as a partnership of American musician Jimmy Buffett's company, the Orlando, Florida-based Margaritaville Holdings LLC, and OSI Restaurant Partners, with Buffett licensing the name and Outback Steakhouse operating the franchising of restaurants. After a change of ownership in 2012, most of the restaurants were closed by 2014. The last location, located in Secaucus, New Jersey, temporarily closed in March 2020 and this was made permanent in September 2020.[3]
