Tried Outback again since we were shopping at the Bay Terrace Shopping Center. Place is conveniently located with plenty of parking. I like the spacious booth seating and the atmosphere of the large dining room. Good views of the TVs too. We're always surprised by the variety of menu choices which are reasonably priced. Ordered the Aussie Trio Burger with Caesar's salad and cheese cake dessert. The wife had Onion soup and steak, also with cheese cake. The meal was filling and quite good! Broccoli side was over cooked but not a meal breaker. Service was prompt with an attentive and friendly staff. The place was clean. We left content knowing that we enjoyed good food at an affordable price. Give them a try when in the area! Will definitely be back again especially when attending the Bay Terrace Car Shows. read more

Waitress is very friendly. Keep checking on us. Then she told us to give her 5 star review so she can win some internal contest. We'll, she didn't give me a 5 star service. Food is not good. Pasta is too oily. Steak isn't that good, a lot of fat. Butter doesnt go well with the steak. Tried to ask for the Wednesday special. They said it is on the computer, but not on the paper menu. I wound up didnt get it since i dont have the detaiI. I think it is same as the 3 course deal. read more

We decided to visit Outback Steakhouse with the family after not having been in years. I put us on the waitlist online and arrived about 15 minutes early. I was told the wait would be around 15 minutes, which was fine--but it ended up being an additional 30 minutes beyond that, which was a bit frustrating. The kids enjoyed their meals. My daughter had the Joey sirloin and my son had the cheeseburger, and both were happy with their food. I ordered the ribs and steak--unfortunately, the mashed potatoes were cold and overall the food was pretty mid. My husband ordered the pasta and actually enjoyed his dish. We finished with the skillet cookie for dessert, which was the highlight of the meal--really good and definitely worth it. Overall, it was an okay experience. I'd come back if the kids suggest it, but not necessarily for the food. read more

Not a high tier steak house to be sure. The atmosphere was as if you were at Applebee's. The waitress couldn't stop saying, "No problem"; very annoying. The food was solid, though. No complaints and I WOULD return. I enjoyed my food as did my party. read more

Late lunch, the restaurant was not busy when we arrived but by the time we left it was getting busy. Service was good, we got a seasoned server. OS portions are great and so are the cocktails and mocktails. The ambience is good "mate" read more

Came here for a family dinner. We made reservations as we had a large party. Staffs were friendly and the service was quick. They provide coloring page and crayons for our little ones. Kept them busy. The complimentary bread is good especially when it is nice and hot with butter. Overall the food was good. The ribs were soft and falls off the bone. The sauce was good. The rice and mash potatoes were also good and it paired well with the ribs. My little one liked the Mac and cheese. The coconut shrimp was nice and crispy. The ribeye was a little chewy. You do need to put some salt on it as it was light on the seasoning. Caesar salad wasn't too good. I would not recommend that. Overall it was a pretty good experience. read more

Update: Had lunch at Outback again because they had a $14.99 three course special. I had a house salad, coconut shrimp main course, and cheesecake dessert. I must say this time I really enjoyed my meal. The waitress was fairly friendly although I wish she came around a little more often. I had a Kiwi Strawberry Lemonade , ok but a little too sweet (doesn't all eateries make their lemonade too sweet). This tome around I'll give Outback 4 stars. read more

Stopped in for lunch after doing some shopping in Bay Terrace. The Kookaburra Wings were the star of the show - so flavorful, well cooked, and great value for the money! We had ordered the Down Under Trio without bacon on the fries, but received the item with the bacon. We sent it back to be remade, and it seemed like the bloomin onion pieces were moved over from the original dish considering they were ice cold by the time the trio made its way out to us. A pretty disappointing experience. The drinks were great though! read more

Me and my wife just finished watching a movie at a nearby theatre, got hungry and we decided to go to this steakhouse, we have been here so many times in the past and it's a decent place to have a meal. The atmosphere is casual and lively, featuring a moderate noise level that is great for groups, families, and sports viewing. It is not considered upscale or romantic, but rather a casual, contemporary, and upbeat dining environment with a large dining space including booths, tables, and a bar. Staff who greeted us was very welcoming, we were directed to a booth which is what I really prefer. My wife and I opted to order a blooming onion, steak with coconut shrimp, sweet potato on the side. The service was fast and quick, food was served still hot. The wait staff was very friendly and attentive but not to the point of being intrusive. I like the blooming onion's show-stopping appearance wherein each onion " petal" is separately coated in a batter, deep fried until golden brown and was served with a special dipping sauce. While the steak and coconut shrimp was good, delicious and hearty. I find the place has fair, reasonable prices and good value especially when compared to other restaurants. The combination of hearty, flavorful food, a fun atmosphere, reasonable prices and good service makes it a good choice for casual dining. read more

Outback has been around for years. I decided to take my kids. The staff was very accommodating and pleasant. It's was clean and spacious which made it very comfortable. I guess since I'm older with a more developed palette I can honestly say unequivocally that the food was salty. The blooming onion and shirmp was over salted. The salmon my wife had wasn't. Very flavorful. read more

The food just isn't the same as before. The steak was chewy and flavorless. When we sat down we waited about 15 minutes for our waitress that only showed her face to take the order and to ask us if we needed anything at the end of our meals. She passed us several times but not once asked if we were okay. We didn't even get utensils until we asked. We had to ask the busboy for steak sauce after waiting for a while to eat. She did not bring our food out the manager did, and she did not bring our check im guessing another manager did. We felt we wasted our time and money... don't go on Wednesday I'd say if you still want to dine here the staff is no good and it wasn't even busy. read more

Horrible experience that I have had there with my family. Waitress who served us that night was extremely disrespectful. I used to go there very often, since I used to live nearby that neighborhood, but now, I am going to discourage anyone to go there anymore. read more

3.5 Haven't been to an Outback location since the one in Elmhurst closed. Saw this place when we were in the area. Located in Bay Terrace Shopping Center so if by car, there's a big parking area. Can get there by bus too - I took buses from/to Main St Flushing. Large dining space with booths, tables and bar area, which I couldn't tell from the entrance (in a hidden corner between stores). We found the steak here a little bland compared to other places. My family noted the smaller sizes as well. Finally ordered a blooming onion - used to think it was too much for us but not anymore. Tasty though a bit oily and the batter came off easily. Most of our sides were good except for the mac and cheese which was also bland and not creamy at all. read more

We just returned from the nicest family bday dinner. The wedge salad is DELICIOUS, and I enjoyed it the most. Salmon was pretty good, chocolate cake for dessert (the very large piece) was moist and very fresh. The peachy Wallaby drink was fabulous as well. We look forward to returning. Great time had by all. read more

I've been eating their filet mignon for a while now I've had it to go as well. Today I ordered the filet mignon 2 of them. 2 potatoes and 2 asparagus. The order came and I went home and only saw 1 asparagus in the order. The rest of the meal was great as usual but whoever packed my order put 2 asparagus orders in 1 tin foil thus me thinking there was only 1 order. When I called the store I was informed that both asparagus were in the same in foil. I would have thought that since it being 2 orders they would be wrapped separately. Need to think twice before ordering a takeout meal there again. read more

Took mom out for Mother's Day Lunch. Called to see if I need to make reservations for a party of two on a weekday. Staff answered the phone and said to just come in. Be there in 15 minutes. Hostess was very friendly. She took us to a booth near bar area but it was elevated which be hard to step up or down. We then went around and found a booth there. There were not many people at Outback Steakhouse. We were like the first customers. Waiter came over took our orders and then staff came over with drinks and food came out shortly after. There was only one waiter and saw one server and the hostess. I had a great time. The food was good. Waiter came back to check on us. Sever did awesome job after bringing food asked if we wanted steak sauce. Piping crusty hot bread with butter. The Blueberry Lavender Lemonade- taste the lavender. I'll take another. We both ordered their special which was a 6oz Sirloin & lobster tail with two sides. The two sides were broccoli and fries and the other was broccoli with baked sweet potato. The lobster tails very very good and dipping pieces into hot butter. Oh My. The steak was okay. I will go for the filet for more chewy texture next time. Carrot cake- very moist. Coffee was kind of warm and not as hot. This Outback Steakhouse if the only one here. No other steakhouse in Bay Terrace. Will be back again. Come early. It got busy after an hour. read more

Don't order delivery if you expect to get any of the sauces or dressings for your order. Gave them a chance again today, and again I received a salad without the dressing I requested and a meal without the sauces requested. I might as well have gone into the restaurant and ate without silverware. *** Reply to Outback's response: I wish your ability to fulfill orders correctly was as quick as your ability to send a disingenuous reply. read more

I ordered coconut shrimps and carrot cake. The free bread loaf was fresh and soft, shrimps were huge with nice marmalade sauce. Everything was tasty and not expensive read more

It's your typical chain restaurant with good food and service. I got their strawberry lemonade and side of fries. The strawberry lemonade was sweet, it wasn't bad at all. The fries had an interesting taste though, it could be that they used a different seasoning, but it tasted a bit like the seasoning I would use on steak. It was also a bit too salty for my preference. If you like meat heavy meals with lots of dairy, Outback Steakhouse is a good place to go. They also serve you bread and butter if you ask for it- I didn't get a chance to taste it because I wasn't too hungry, but the butter looked like it was whipped butter. Average restaurant with good food and service- not much more than that. read more

The service was under par. Took three times to ask for water. Took a while for dessert . Took forever to get the plates cleared. Ambiance was okay. Food was okay. read more

Lovely staff, great food, great price. This branch is managed well and the employees are very kind. I came here for lunch with my family and had a wonderful time. They have great deals. I love the holiday drinks, I had the one with the platypus and the egg. The place was decorated beautifully for Halloween. I will definitely be returning. Thank you to the wonderful staff at Outback Steakhouse! read more

First time coming to Outback in many years. Was promptly seated and the waitress was new but very nice and friendly. Ordered the French onion soup -- way too salty took a few spoonfuls and I was done. Ordered the ribeye and baked potato- both were good steak was maybe a bit too fatty but it was tasty. Not sure I'm coming back. Left 20% tip for very good service. read more

For a chain restaurant steakhouse I was pleasantly surprise on my takeout. We ordered sirloin, Mac and cheese, grilled shrimps, ribs, baked potato and of course bloomin onions. I repeat this was take out, and it was extremely satisfying! Only take away I have was the blooming onions was a bit too salty for me but was still good. Service was great and staff were really nice. The food was ready on time. read more

Food would've been good if there wasn't a hair in everything I ordered from my tap water to my steak pasta. Waitress was kind but seemed to not like clearing the table even when there were quite a few things to be taken. Also bathrooms were atrocious with a whole mass of fecal matter on the seat. Would not recommend unless you love hairy food. read more

I went in for lunch well it was not that busy To start I had to ask for silverware and the food was ok good great and the cake was very dry I don't think I will come back anytime soon there are better places to eat on Bell Blvd so I think that is where I will be going they can keep my rewards read more

Our waitress was sweet, but I do feel like this restaurant is under staffed. We have to wait for her to come around. She might be the only waitress taking orders. I do not see anyone else in this area. Salad was okay, but this black center is quite disappointing. It takes at least 7 mins to get out to go box and 10mins for her to come around and get our check. Overall Mid read more

Services and food are great. Waiter was very helpful with the menu choices. The atmosphere was like all Outback's and very clean.

Bad food. Annoying server I get it it's franchise food but quality of food is so bad service wasn't bad but kept on pushing for us to order more than asked for a food rating read more

Service has gotten so much better over the years especially now that they use iPads to input the orders but they really need to do something about the stench from the bathrooms. While we were waiting for a table on the benches by the host and the bathrooms it wreaks so bad of piss. read more

Outback Steakhouse - Kids menu - Steakhouses Near Me - Bayside, New York

It's a 3 star place , not a Peter Lugers, but it's cheap enough for the non gormond s to go ,

Wow I haven't been to Outback since I was a lot younger, still in elementary school coming in for dinner for the crayon sets and kids menus. Our party of 4 dropped by on a Thursday evening. Initially they sat us nearby a bigger party but we wanted a more intimate, private setting so we moved over to a booth. For 4 people, the booth was spacious. There's hooks on the side of the booths to hang your jackets but might not be optimal if you're sitting close to the door like we were. Food came out very quickly, as there weren't too many patrons in the restaurant. The brown bread was delicious and happy to see that it's still offered. The mushroom appetizer was delicious. A quick little snack prior to the entrees. Perfect for a party for 4. I ordered the 1/2 rack ribs with the side of sweet potato and the house salad. House salad was mediocre, but the ribs were juicy, lathered in bbq sauce, and the sweet potato with brown sugar was very gooey and soft. read more

BRING BACK THE BUTTER CAKE. My waitress was amazing and she spanked my friend for a tip.

Any chain restaurant is all about service and this particular location was two thumbs up. My waitress Maria was super attentive, pleasant and a joy to talk with. The wings are really the main reason why I visit Outback, the dry-rubbed wings are simply out-of-this-world good. seasoned to Perfection and I just wish each order was double in size lol. The rest of my meal was just average at best, cheese was not melted on the burger and the baked potato was cold upon serving. I didn't make an issue because Maria was just so sweet so I overlooked some inexpensive entrees. This Outback has the potential to do better. read more

Their 3 course specials at $14.99 are a great buy. I particularly like the Caesar salad, coconut shrimp and the cheese cake is incredible. The salad is large enough to take half home. And the warm bread is so good. read more

I walked in the greeter never acknowledged us he actually took a phone call and turned his back and never turned around. A server walked up and seated us in her section and I should have known it was going to be down hill from the walk in. We sat down placed our drink order and shortly after placed our food order. There was an issue with ordering the wings as we couldn't get the same amount as before the manager ended up coming over and basically telling us it was a misring and after telling her about the greeter she said nothing just went about her business. For food I decided to go with this pasta they used to have an brought it back for the anniversary it was HORRIBLE no taste, no flavor. I sent it back immediately! I ordered the blooming shrimp instead. The server came around to her 3 tables gave everyone plates but us mind you they were all seated after us. They also all got bread and we never did until I asked for it honestly this was enough to drive me away I don't plan on coming back for a while because I absolutely can not. Before leaving I ordered another boomerang drink and the bartender switched the flavors and gave what she wanted and when I brought it to the servers attention she tried to brush me off. I then went over to the bar myself and had it changed since my mother only wanted one specific flavor. Everything took forever I couldn't wait to leave it was torture! read more

This location has become my go-to since the one by Queens Mall, near Rego Park, closed down. So far, I never had a bad experience at this location and never had to wait a ridiculous amount of time to be seated or to get food on the table. The last time I was here was 2 years ago... pandemic and all... Now it's more relaxed, and we love Jasmine as our server tonight. She was super friendly and made the visit feel like we were dropping by a friend's house. My go-to entree used to be their Ribeye steak, but now it's their slowly roasted prime ribs... I got a friend hooked on it too, while another is head over hills for theirs ribs. The soft drinks come with free refills. And their freshly baked bread, paired with that light airy butter.... you will end up eating more than one lol we both had one and a half.... Now if you're want the most bang for your buck, get their gift cards when they have promos out. And sign up for the dine-in rewards program (4th visit becomes 50% off) read more

I realize this restaurant chain has nothing to do with Australian cuisine, but I do really enjoy my experience every time I visit this location. Just don't set your expectations too high! Their steaks are really good. I usually opt for the boneless ribeye medium-rare served with mashed potatoes and mixed vegetables. If I am particularly hungry, I also order a Caesar salad and a French onion soup. As for the appetizers, I choose the bloomin' onion and Aussie cheese fries. The bloomin' onion comes alongside a slightly spicy mayo-based dipping sauce and the cheese fries are served with a side of ranch dressing. Another bonus is the free pumpernickel bread and complimentary butter! I never had a problem with their service and I make sure to leave a nice tip as I leave. I make sure to visit this spot at least once a month. read more

The last time I went to an Outback Steakhouse, Bill Clinton was still president and I must admit, I enjoyed my experience tonight. The service was fast and friendly. The food was good (for the price) but there's room for improvement. We got the rib-eye and porterhouse and requested medium and rare respectively. Rib-eye came out medium well and the porterhouse came out medium...which was fine. We were too hungry to send things back. The steaks were overseasoned and it was like a salt bomb. I'd suggest to ask for light seasoning. Their fries are snappy outside and creamy inside. The coconut shrimp is exactly as I remembered some 20 years ago and should be the new staple instead of the bloomin onion. Our server Jasmine was especially friendly, attentive, and efficient. I'd suggest to ask to sit in her section if you come here. Other than the over-seasoned steak, I hope management reads this and tend to the bathroom more. I really don't like sticky bathroom floors. read more
