This is an update from a previous visit where, as a wheelchair user, I was frustrated over the dearth of seating that could accommodate me. Well, they must have updated since that time, because I had no problems this visit. Plenty of regular table space at which to position a powerchair. Food was great, and I felt the value was good, too. I had the Coconut Shrimp. Excellent. And, naturally, we enjoyed the Bloomin' Onion. The real story, though, was our service. Ours was a large group in a Sunday afternoon celebrating a birthday, and our server, Elle or maybe Ellie, was outstanding. We never lacked or waited very long for anything. Hence, I'm tickled that I can follow up a less than stellar review with a rave! Good job, Outback (Hamilton Place, Chattanooga). And, wheelchair folks come on down. read more

The only reason that I left two stars is because our server was very attentive and professional. First off we ordered the Bloomn' Onion that came out cold and soaked in grease to the point where there was a pool of oil left in the plate. Next, the other two people I was with just ordered a bowl of potato soup each.....both were hot but they told me that it was so salty that it was really hard for them to eat. I ordered the Alice Springs chicken lunch. It was cold as well. I ate about half of it. The restaurant was disgustingly dirty......no excuse for that whatsoever! The food took forever to come out (even though we were 1of only 5 tables there at that time about 2:30pm) and the food was cold which is completely unacceptable! I will NOT go back to this location again and I advise everyone to stay away if only because of how dirty it was. If there is no crowd there the employees should have been cleaning, sweeping, or at the very minimum wiping stuff down. This really breaks my heart because I love Outback but that is ruined now. Please do better. read more

Outback Steakhouse - Gross Bloom'n Onion - Steakhouses Near Me - Chattanooga, Tennessee

You can't go to outback without getting the bloomin' onions. The serving is so big that we never finish all of it. Their grilled chicken and garden salad are always good. The chicken is moist, never dry and the salad's always so fresh. I just love the atmosphere....it's very relaxed and the service has always been great. read more

Food was great. I had shrimp on the barbie, rice, & salad. No complaints. We also had cheese fries as an appetizer and those were excellent. Service was spectacular! Gabby was quick and on point. Tea refills were attentive and she even brought extra ice which is rare!!! Hard to believe she isn't at a 5 star restaurant or a manager. She rocked! read more

Ordered a large office lunch delivery today. All of the food was great! Food was hot and fresh. Everything we needed and more made the trip. Thank you! read more

We went to Outback Hamilton Place for lunch! The food was delicious and cooked perfectly! Everyone was so helpful and friendly. Best service I think I've ever had there. Chris, our main server was excellent! He took care of the things you would have asked for, such as extra dressing, extra butter, etc BEFORE you even asked. He was top notch. Not just to us but to customers around us as well. If you go, ask for Chris, he'll take good care of you! Great experience. read more

The best service I have received in a restaurant in a very long time. The service, whose name I will not list but we will call her J, was very professional and helpful. She was patient and attentive. Weekday lunchtime, moderately busy not not slammed. Typical Outback atmosphere and vibe, so good. Food was great. read more

Ordered take out and everything was fantastic! Food was delivered as requested and didn't have to wait!! Fantastic experience and highly recommended!! read more

We always enjoy Outback! Steaks are hit or miss with getting it cooked right. We prefer med well and it is never as order, it's typically well or med rare. The flavor is good regardless. Service was excellent today for lunch. Always a nice, not so loud atmosphere. read more

Outback has taken their menu to a whole new level. The blooming shrimp appetizer is the best thing going. We both had the salmon and it was top shelf. $80 for lunch (tip inc) for two people is a bit much though. read more

Outback Steakhouse - Curbside pickup - Steakhouses Near Me - Chattanooga, Tennessee

I ordered online for carry out. Though the dining room is open, I did not feel ready to dine in with the pandemic still in full swing. Ordering online was a breeze and the order was ready within the given timeframe. Pickup was phenomenal because as soon as I pulled into the designated space for curbside a server came out with my order. I ordered the blooming onion and deep fried mushrooms. Bread came as a complimentary side. Blooming sauce came with the onion and house made ranch came with the mushrooms. Portion size was good and I was very impressed. Everything was hot and fresh. The mushrooms were perfectly seasoned and very addictive. The house made ranch was some of the best I have had. It had the perfect blend of spices and the consistency was perfect for dipping. The blooming onion was huge and super fun to share. I did not care for the blooming onion sauce but it was just a matter of my personal taste. The seasoning of the sauce was well balanced and I feel it is the perfect compliment to the onion itself even if I didn't care for the taste. The bread was warm and soft. I usually do not care for dark breads but this one was perfect. It was served with real butter and I can see myself calling in orders for just the bread! If you want an excellent food experience definitely try this outback location. I will be going back! read more

Excellent food and service. The server was friendly, attentive and efficient. The food and drinks were a good value.

Caleb at the bar is a ROCKSTAR! After a miserable experience last night at another steakhouse, I went tried and true tonight. Was my meal cooked perfectly? Nope - but it was corrected immediately, and a manager came and apologized ( slightly undercooked.. just a little too rare for me). Caleb was just the right amount of attentive. I never wanted for anything, yet he didn't hover. What an enjoyable experience! Thank you Caleb ! My first time traveling in Chattanooga for business, but this is now my territory, so I'll be back. read more

This is ok food and ok service. Absolutely nothing special and actually the service was fairly slow. Food was a decent portion but not very good. Typical "bar food". Given all of this I would say it is over priced. For a few more bucks you can go to higher end locations and skip this one. Many of the chain restaurants have gone down hill as they try to squeeze profitability. This is one of them. read more

Outback Steakhouse - The bar area - Steakhouses Near Me - Chattanooga, Tennessee

I was there on a recent Sunday, along with five others. Three had steak, one had the Alice Springs chicken, one had the coconut shrimp, and I chose the grilled shrimp. First off as we unwrapped the napkins, three of us noticed that there was caked on and dried food on our forks. The three who had steaks were happy with theirs; the chicken and coconut shrimp were marginally "ok . ." and my grilled shrimp tasted like it was made the week+ before. It was overcooked and dry, and the baked potato was so oversalted I couldn't eat it. I left it, as well as most of the shrimp, and when asked if I wanted a go-to box I declined. When I went to the ladies' room, one paper towel dispenser was empty and the other was malfunctioning (would only dispense a small bit of paper towel at a time). The restaurant was busy, and our server was good, but we definitely wont be back. read more

Outbacks just aren't like they used to be. Yet the prices just keep going up. Basic food. Okay service. Nothing special about this experience. At least I got my food unlike my experience over at the Hixson location. So, that's worth an extra star read more

Took forever for them to bring out our food and people who was after us was getting their food. This is the second this happened and the last time we'll be coming to this restaurant!! DO NOT COME HERE read more

Best time I've had in a very long time. Came in with my boys for a birthday dinner. Our server was reallY good. I forgot her name it started with a V. She looks like Eva Mendez and Megan fox combined, so no complaints there. She knew how to pace our food properly and everything came out like a 4 course meal at perfect timing, we had forgot that we were eating at Outback due to the service being so on point. It usually isn't like this, food is good service is mediocre but this night particularly was all around perfect. Outback has made it back on my list of favorite dines. read more

I got slimy cucumbers on my salad delivered by door dash- it wasn't door dash's fault but the manager said I would have to go to them for money off or a refund. Those cucumbers should have left the kitchen in a trash bag- not on my salad. Pretty gross!!! read more

We went on a Tuesday evening around 5:45pm, not busy, I understand short staffing, we came in got seated right away and sat for 20 minutes, others that came in after us were sat in our area and were waited on before us, we walked out but not before my husband gave the manager a piece of his mind. read more

Food so good Make You Wanna Slap Yo Mama! I usually don't tell Tales like this about franchise restaurants but man this Outback has really shown itself over the course of time and improved year by year. I've been following and eating at this establishment for well over 20 years and I must say OMG! The Alice Springs Chicken is definitely a must try and even though it's not on the menu if you have a little one and it's their birthday or you just have kids in general ask for the spotted dog Sunday! That's a throwback oldie right there that only the classics know about. Restrooms are subpar here as I get that many people are starting not to really take care of those, but not to iki to wash your hands and take a leak. They have a great bar seating area that is usually first come first serve and if you get to know the bartenders and servers there and you are regular they definitely treat you well. Food comes out pretty quick here and this is an awesome place even if you have a large party to celebrate. I have seen a party of 30 in there that had a whole section and that's very rare for any restaurant to allow that. It's near all the cool stuff including the mall so after a long day of shopping this is definitely a must stop! I feel like I'm in the outback mate (in my Australian voice) The service is so good I can't garou might hop out of your pocket! You never know read more

I feel like the quality has gone downhill here. My steak wasn't very good. My husband had to send his back because it was so full of gristle. I feel like the quality of the cuts of meat isn't great. Blooming onion and bread were good. If I go back I won't order steak, even though it's a steakhouse. read more

Three stars because our waiter was excellent. Everything else was disappointing... the blooming onion was so greasy, there was literally a puddle of oil on the plate. The piña colada tasted like they threw some ice and a cheap Walmart mix in a blender, stuck an orange slice and cherry on top, and called it fancy. The steak we got was the least expensive one and came with this wine sauce on top of it... sounds good right? It wasn't. I have to admit their bread with butter was soft and deliciously warm... the caesar salad was pretty good, and the loaded baked potato that came with our steak was my personal favorite part of our meal. Over all, I can't say we'll be back anytime soon. But at least our waiter was nice. read more

Outback Steakhouse - Blooming onion, warm bread, and piña colada while we wait - Steakhouses Near Me - Chattanooga, Tennessee

Outback is one of my favorite restaurants. This particular Outback has always been my favorite. I've been going for years. The temperature has always been comfortable during all seasons. The food has always been cooked the way I've ordered it and has always come out to the table in a very reasonable time frame. In my mind it has always been five stars to me. I'm giving it four this time as I was very shocked at the wait time for our food. It was almost an hour. The food was still hot and delicious though. The restaurant temperature was very cold and uncomfortable this time. I'll definitely be going back. Maybe next time I can give five stars. read more

Outback Steakhouse - Steakhouses Near Me - Chattanooga, Tennessee

A great experience at Outback today. Celebrating my two adult children's birthdays. Sixteen in our party and although they do not accept reservations, I called a day prior to our planned lunch and asked if we could do a "call ahead". Cameron was very helpful as well as the manager. Our server, Madison was very pleasant, attentive, efficient and exceptional. Food was served in a timely manner and was very good! We were there for lunch on a Saturday at 2:00. Would definitely recommend!!!! read more

Took my wife out for dinner @ Outback at Hamilton Place for prime rib. I was certain it was bonifide grade A kangaroo. This was the toughest, driest and largest disappointment in prime rib we've ever had! This was the third attempt to enjoy a meal @ Outback. Three strikes and we're out. Never, ever again. I'm not sure what they are considering 'beef' there but it definitely wasn't anything close to what they tried to serve us. Good by Outback. You've gotten your last $100 from us! read more

Mediocre food with mediocre service. Even the steaks were just "meh". It was a little disappointing

Had not been here in a while. These reviews have been awful. They must have revamped or ? because everything was amazing... The hostess, Kameron, Alex, our server, and we even called the manager, Melissa, over to compliment her team to her face. Love, the coconut shrimp, and the hubby loved one of the new items on their menu, some sort of chicken/rib item! It may not be the newest of Outback's, but they are keeping it up well, and this team believes in doing a great job! read more

We came in at around 8:15pm on Sunday night. We were promptly seated by a friendly greeter. Our waiter was attentive and accommodating to my food restrictions. I ordered filet mignon and my husband ordered steak as well. Both of our meals were cooked to order. The place seemed clean. We were very happy. Haven't been to Outback steakhouse in years. It was a good experience. read more

This was my first time at outback steakhouse in several years. Really had a hankering for the Bloomin onion so enjoyed getting the rose petals which is the smaller version. The sauce is always to die for! Ended up getting a 6 ounce sirloin with a baked potato and a side salad. I don't eat much red meat anymore and honestly I guess I should've splurge on a filet. I got my steak done medium rare and for the sirloin quality I probably should've gone medium. I just felt like the meat was tougher and chewier than I prefer. The flavoring was good though. Now this is not specific to outback; but just in general for chain restaurants I need to vent about how they have to include all the calories on the menu. When I'm going out to eat I don't want to see all the calories that just makes me feel guilty. Oh well... read more
