Since this is one of the only steakhouses in town, my family decided to give it another chance. Big mistake to say the least the salads they served were brown and after asking for another one the replacement lacked any flavor. Finally, the reason we chose to try this restaurant again the steak. I usually eat mine medium rare to rare and there first attempt arrived stiff and grey with minimal red in the middle. The second attempt was closer to a medium rare but had difficulty cutting the steak due to all the silver skin this killed any desire I had to continue eating(which I sent back but they were kind enough to let me still pay for). This has been me and my families experience for at the last three times we have visited this restaurant. The service is good however if your looking for a edible steak you may want to seek out another restaurant as this outback is more of an outhouse when it come to cooking steak. We will never be back and will enjoy the drive to another town to enjoy a properly cooked steak. read more

Always great! Staff is always friendly, smiling, and happy to help. Service is great and paced appetizers, then salad and bread, then dinner. If there are any issues they are happy to fix them for you. Love this location! read more

Went there to celebrate my dear friends 78th birthday. Was seated near a party of five. They were very loud and inconsiderate. Service was extremely slow and waitress kept my gift card. Leaving an over more than 50% gratuity. Very disappointed. Debi read more

A nice chain steakhouse with good steaks, chicken and shrimp dishes. I love the Blooming Onion and the sweet potato with brown sugar, cinnamon and butter. One of my favorite dishes is the Drovers Platter with ribs and chicken breast and your choice of sides. You can eat in our take out. read more

The service is always good, food is always delicious, and the beer is always cold. We eat at Outback about once a month. Sometimes we get it to go, and sometimes we stay and eat. Either way, we have not had a bad experience yet. read more

We Moved to Inverness 2004, health battles caused us not to get out and go to various places and check them. We have gone to outbackback steak house this past weekend and the food was amazing, the Service it was a Blessing. the settings it was awesome. the bathrooms squeaky clean. Would I One Day Like to return. Oh Yes I will. Great Service, Great Food, What more can one ask for. The only complaint that I heard was there was no tv in the dinning area they had both tvs towards the bar area. You need to come out and try their foods. you really need to look out for specials when dining here though. read more

16 oz Prime Rib m/r is cooked perfectly every single time I have order it, which is at least twice a month. Not only is it perfectly each time but I've had in in other states and the quality and cooking is perfect. In addition, the bartenders in this location can make a wonderful Martini. read more

Called ahead 5 days in advance for a 6 pm dine time. Party of 12. Arrived at 5:45, told by hostess could be up to 1 hour. Why bother with call ahead. Now over an hour and a half later still waiting.... Terrible mgr and staff . read more

I seek out Outback often when I travel due to the excellent menu and well prepared food. I am always satisfied with their food and service. The same applies for this Outback as well. However, I do have one issue to touch upon as I mentioned it to the hostess on the way out and got little to no response relating to correcting the issue. My complaint.......IT WAS FREEZING. The outside temperature on this evening was 34 degrees. And the Air Conditioning was blasting away right over our booth. I had a jacket on and was literally shivering. I mentioned it to the waitress resulting in only a sheepish smile. I rushed through the meal wanting out of there ASAP. If it is because of the usual excuse of the kitchen being hot......tell them to open a door. There was plenty of ARTIC breeze to cool off the kitchen. Cmon guys, this is a simple fix. SHUT OFF THE AC. It doesn't take a secret code from White House. Just turn it off. Accommodate the patrons. That is what you are in business for. Still.....the food was great. Keep up the good work. read more

Terrible, to sat the least. Yes, they comped us, some, but was totally unprofessional. Management was so bad. Two hours for a 3 top? Will not recommend this place to anyone. Maybe it was just a bad night, but quite a few customers were complaining. Thumbs down for this place. read more

Love this place it has the best food I've ever eaten in my whole entire life nice people clean restaurant and bathrooms overall nice environment highly recommend eating here read more

This is my Disclaimer: This review is solely based on my own honest opinion in regards to a recent visit at said establishment and not being posted out of any malice or slander. I was at this Outback Steakhouse on Sunday March 4, 2018 at around 8:00pm and I was so looking forward to a Rib-eye Steak (larger Cut Size). I placed my order and than was told that they do not have any more of the Larger Rib-eye left and did I want to order the smaller size. Well, that was a big disappointment and No, I didn't want the smaller size because that's why I ordered the larger size, kinda of makes sense to me. Now I order the larger size of another steak to which the waitress comes back and say's they are out of the size steak. Now I really want to leave because I am not able to get the steak I wanted so why bother settling on something I didn't want in the first place but I did anyway because I was with another guest. My complaint is, what ever happened to making the customer feel appreciated? No one ever did anything to compensate me for my non enjoyable dinner which was not my fault. A little discount off the bill, a free appetizer or even my steak that I did not want in the first place at No Charge. I received NOTHING for this whole inconvenience on the part of Outback. I would think that this well known establishment would do something but I guess I was wrong to expect that. I know, a Fine Dinning Restaurant would have done something for me. Again this is just my opinion but I guess Outback has now fallen to the status of Another Fast Food Chain instead of being a Fine Dinning Establishment and doesn't go that one step above to make their patrons feel appreciated. read more

This is a very poor excuse for a restaurant bad service week drinks and the small portions of driest food I have ever seen we push the food aside paid the bill and went elsewhere to eat read more

Always a perfect temp on the Ribeye. The Blue Cheese Wedge is the Best around. We usually sit at the Bar for awesome service. All the girls are great. Yara on Wednesday nights is awesome. Great personal service & perfect drinks. The manager on duty always stops by to make sure we are happy. read more

We ordered online for take out. You would think that since it was in writing, it would be correct. Alas, not so. The steak that was ordered medium rare was cooked well done and a different steak that was ordered well done was cooked medium rare. Hmmm, Outback cooks read much??? Also, their website is a little fuc*ed up because when I ordered one person's side, it allowed me to customize the twice baked mashed potato so there wasn't any sour cream but on another person's twice baked mashed potato side order, the website did not offer any customization so that one came with sour cream and ultimately had to be thrown away in the garbage. Outback- get your cooks to read and hire a company to fix your online ordering problems!!! read more

I just had the driest prime rib that I have every had. To start with we had to wait till the hostess came back by to ask if there was a waitress working this table. When the drinks and bread arrived no plates were provided to place the bread on after you cut the bread. No salt or pepper on the table had to ask for them. read more

Very disappointing. We were seated at a table that had a cracked polyurethane surface, these cracks were full of food scrap and was a case of food poisoning waiting to happen. We moved. My wife ordered the filet ($22) and I ordered the sirloin. ($10) . They looked and tasted identical. My French fries were salted to the point of being inedible. They brought some bread but was told they were out of knives?? There wasn't 8 other couples in the place?? My special ($9.99) for a 6oz sirloin and came with fries only did not seem so special, didn't even get a vegetable. Can't see spending $13 for a onion. This is no longer The Outback I once new. My fault tho I did read all these negative reviews first but thought I give them a try anyway. (Got a gift card for Xmas). read more

Just had a fabulous meal with friends. Four of us had filets, perfectly cooked, tender and juicy. Two also had a lobster tail...delicious. (Actually better than we've had at Red Lobster!) One had the salmon and said it was fantastic. The sides were wonderful, the service friendly and efficient. We will definitely be back! read more

Food was great, drinks was awesome. Service better than it has been in previous visits.

Well to all of the people complaining about call ahead ,Those are NOT RESERVATIONS !! Not like you all think they are so I don't care where you go here in Citrus, down in spring hill any of the chains will take a call ahead but its not a reservation. This is the standard had to get that off my chest. We just went there this evening the whole experience was stellar !! We USED to eat at the one in spring hill but after tonight it will always be Inverness . From the greeting at the door to the immediate seating was fantastic. The waitress was pleasant and attentive. The salads were delicious and then the prime Rib and the 16 ounce sirloin with shrimp was Excellent. Medium well was done exactly as it should have been the green beans were delicious. My wife said the blue cheese salad wedge was out of this world. and the whole place was impeccably clean compared to many of the chains in the area..5 star experience all the way Kudos to management and staff read more

We were greeted at the door and seated immediately. Our waitress came over promptly and took our drink order. We both ordered the 6 ounce sirloin. They were done perfectly and were delicious, as was the baked potato and broccoli. Our waitress was extremely nice and efficient. We thoroughly enjoyed our experience and will definitely return. We have been to this restaurant numerous times and always enjoy it. read more

So this review has nothing to do about the food bc I honestly my food was good, the old fashioned I had was good.. my complaint is that upon paying my bill I went to put my ID back into my purse and I guess it didn't make it all the way back in and fell out onto the floor. They were already closing up so when I realized it, they were obviously closed. Trying not to freak out bc I had just went to the ATM and had $200 in $20's and 1 $50 bill.. some 1s and maybe a couple of $5.. anyway called this morning and I was asked my name, I gave it and was told "the manager said that it may be here". Ok well I'm on my way. Was told to bring ID.... Hello you have it ‍. Ended up getting my ID back but of course all of the cash was gone. I could have cried but the manager told me "oh well". I came home, called the Sheriffs Office and made a report. The deputy went up to review the cameras and unfortunately there wasn't any cameras pointed at the bar, only the cashier. So if you go to Outback, be aware that if you sit on the right hand corner of the bar as you walk in there aren't any cameras pointed in your direction ‍ read more

Pretty good service, the prime rib was really good. Service was a bit slow but overall the place was clean and well kept and the staff were all friendly. Prompt service is a big one for us because we have a one year old and we need his food to come out earlier so he doesn't get fussy. The food was great and the service was good also just a bit slow for the amount of business they had at the time. read more

We had to wait FOREVER!! They quoted us 35-40 minutes, and it was at least an hour and 15 minutes before we got seated. They did walk around giving out samples of their appetizers, which I've never seen at an Outback before, but honestly, that just made me feel hungrier! Then, I ordered the Outback Special and it was very fatty. I'm so thankful for the free meal that my in-laws took us to, but next time I'll ask to go somewhere else. read more

I've been to this outback on a take out basis only. The curbside pick up is anything but. You usually gave to walk inside otherwise you just wait forever. Also, the three times I've been there something is always missing be it silverware, dressing, butter it is always something. This is frustrating BC you usually don't notice until you are at your destination and by then its pointless to go back. A little more attention to detail would be great. Food is good as always at Outback. read more

Horrible service, slow and completely unresponsive. Food was ill prepared and slow and not tasty. Lost us as customers

Ate there last night (new years eve). They were Great! Great food, great service, great staff!

You'd think a restaurant that has steakhouse in its name and pictures so you know what medium rare looks like would know how to perfectly prepare a steak. Disappointing meal tonight. My husband and I both ordered 9-oz sirloin steak tonight. Medium. Mine came out mostly medium with a few bites of medium rare. Okay. His came out medium rare to rare. He couldn't eat it that way. Sent it back, something he hates to do. It came back looking medium-well to well. That's not what he wanted. Sent it back. The manager was fine with taking it off the bill but didn't seem terribly apologetic. We felt he should have cared more. So I ate alone at Outback while he watched and then he ate alone at Wendy's while I watched. Next time we might go directly to Wendy's (and I don't eat burgers). read more

It's an Outback. Usually they're all the same. And this one had good food and very good service. However, the one thing that set it apart from all other Outbacks I've ever been is cleanliness. This was hands down the dirtiest restaurant I've ever been in my entire life. The floors were so dirty you literally slid on grease walking to your table. And every table was dirty. The entire time I was eating I had an irresistible urge to get a mop and start cleaning the floor. It was science fiction. Maybe it was an off night. Next time I pass through I'll stop in again just to see if I was hallucinating this time and give an update. read more

Last time I went to Outback I ordered the Prime Rib and it was delicious, tender, perfect. My husband and I went back today and I ordered Prime Rib, medium rare, same way. It was tough and overcooked. I hate to complain, but it wasn't what I asked for. They said it wasn't Medium Rare because it was seared. Medium rare is medium rare and prime rib is tender. The manager and the waitress were very nice and said they would bring out another prime rib. However, the waitress grabbed the gift card and rang up the meal before the replacement came out. I was told that I shouldn't have been charged. Anyway, second prime rib, same thing. Tough as leather and over cooked. I asked them if this was prime rib, because it was tough like a pork chop and looked like a pork chop. The only thing I can think of is that since everything has gone up in price, they must be ordering cheap cuts of meat. The steak they brought me must have been an old cow. My husband thinks it's funny because he hates going out to eat and gave me the "I told you so crap." I have been ordering prime rib for years, from Virginia to Florida and I never tasted a prime rib like this one. I asked for a box. They charged me so I brought the tough leather home. I have three dogs. At least they liked it. They also eat lizards. read more

The waitress was great. But they couldn't put a basic salad together. They couldn't put a premium salad together. The broccoli was over cooked. We won't be back. read more

We visit steakhouses for prime rib, but the steaks at this Outback had larger amounts of gristle and fat than those at most Outback steakhouses. It would've choked a dog. Meanwhile, the bloomin onion was way overcooked and inedible. The salad and bread were both up to par. I will NEVER again patronize Outback because the steaks are inferior. Cody's steakhouse while not great, far exceeds the Outback, or I can grill a great New York strip and save the aggravation and money. read more

Staff is great, always willing to take the extra step if something comes out wrong (which happens from time to time, they are VERY busy). They've changed up a bit with the menu (some things we used to order aren't there anymore) and the bar area isn't 1st come seating anymore, but they try really hard to seat you quickly with your call ahead. It's a chain, so the food is what you'd expect from any other Outback, good quality. read more

I'm starting to question myself on why I even choose to go to Outback anymore! It use to be my favorite place to go for a steak in our little town, not so much now! My last bad experience was on my birthday a few days ago! We decided to go to Outback because I wanted steak for my birthday dinner! Ha...should have gone somewhere else! Not only was the service sub par the waitress never refilled our drinks, the managers did as they were making their rounds throughout the restaurant. She was very inattentive! I also had a little "visitor" in my salad! Not sure what type of bug it was, but it was enough to totally gross my husband out! He couldn't even finish the rest of his dinner! Not how I wanted to spend my birthday! I don't think we'll be going back to this location, at least not for a while! That was kind of the last straw for me! read more

This was my first time at this restaurant. I had the Outback Special with Baked Potato. The meal was cooked perfect. I will recommend this restaurant to everyone. read more

Last 2 times I ate here I got sick. Definitely food poisoning once. I notified the manager are they offered me gift cards. I refused as I didn't want to get sick again. I haven't been back again. It's been over a year. I won't be back. read more

On 24th Wed we order take out 2 steak dinners for the sum of $48.43 and we received the worse meals ever. The steaks were not cooked as ordered, the baked sweet potatoes weren't tasteful, and over priced. To top everything off I've been sick for 3 days not able to keep anything but water down. We will never ever order from them again nor recommend Outback to anyone and if they were giving their food away I would let a homeless person eat there... read more
