We love outback! The Alice Springs chicken is our go to and we devour every morsel! Their honey, mustard sauce is unparalleled. Do yourself a favor and check it out! read more

Service was 5 stars. The Food, not even close. I had the Tasmanian Shrimp & Scallop Pasta. First, this dish is not worth $22. Second, the pasta was mushy and pasty. So much so that I couldn't finish it. And the Aussie cheese fries were underwhelming, too. It's been years since I've been to an Outback, and it will be years before I return. read more

I've wanted to try Outback for ages (none where I live) and they were out of all 6, 8, and 10oz steaks.. Sadly i had chicken lol it was good but the poor server was untrained (blame poor management not the young girl). Extremely poor service (mistakes, confusion etc etc). The floors were.. not wet but greasy.. very slippery even in the Johnny. #extranasty Outback ..one and done. Applebee's is next door and must be better. read more

Three Steaks and You are Out! We were looking forward to this dining experience based on previous experience, albeit at other Outback restaurants. We understand any help at a restaurant is hard to find these days; especially good help. Given that, this outing was one of the most disappointing restaurant experiences outings we have ever had. We walked into the restaurant. We were the only ones in the lobby. The hostess said, "Just a minute." So, we sat down on the couch. The hostess then proceeded to seat three other groups who arrived after us. After ten minutes, my spouse walked toward the hostess, and the hostess immediately found an open table. Interestingly, the restaurant was only about half full. The waitress asked for our drink order. We waited another fifteen minutes. When we then saw the waitress and asked about the drinks, she said, "Oh, yeah," and left to retrieve them. The food came. One ordered hamburger had cheese on it. No big deal. We scraped off the cheese. One medium-well steak was oozing lots of blood. We sent it back. Minutes later, the manager personally delivered another steak and asked us to cut it. This steak was more rare than the first one. We sent it back, too. We waited another fifteen minutes. Another employee (not the manager) came by with the third steak but never said a word, like, "Sorry for the wait" or "Please try this one." She left the steak and disappeared quickly. The third steak was as black as a pair of polished Florsheim wingtip shoes on Sunday morning. Unappealing would describe the third steak. We asked for some ketchup to moisten the steak since Outback does not provide any steak sauce at the table. After ten minutes, the waitress brought two ketchup containers. The problem was the steak had already been eaten. We saw the manager comp a meal next to us minutes later. She stayed away from us like we had the plague. This review is only describing our experience in Kokomo and should not be interpreted as a blanket review of all Outback Steakhouses. Summary: what an oddly sad experience for an expensive outing... read more

I don't have 85 words. The order was correct. The temperature was good. I had no wait time, I used curbside.

Our mobile order was correct and on time! 3verything was delicious! Steaks were the correct temperature also. Thanks.

TL;DR Skip this Outback and go to Foxes Trail, Marble, or even Texas Roadhouse. When you see an Outback with zero wait at dinner time on a Thursday, that's not a good sign. We were promptly greeted and seated, and got another prompt greeting from the bar server. We ordered our drinks, he forgot my lime and walked it to the table between his fingers and dropped it in my glass. The bread was warm and soft. Our blooming onion was over cooked, our salads were overdressed and the lettuce was wilted and tasted off. It felt like they were trying to mask the obviously bad lettuce with extra dressing. When coming for the full salad bowls that were pushed to the end of the table our server asked if something was wrong. We told him the salads were swimming in dressing and the lettuce tasted bad. He didn't ask if we wanted replacements, just asked if we wanted him to take them away. When taking the bowls behind the female bartender in the Purdue jersey loudly asked "What was their deal?" and he responded "They complained about the dressing." and she rolled her eyes. Nice. We ordered the filet and lobster with mixed veggies. The filet was perfectly medium rare and the lobster was tasty. The mixed veggies were so undercooked they were left uneaten. The 12 ounce prime rib was definitely more well done than the medium that was ordered. The texture of the steak was gross and it was gray in places. We paid for a "premium" side: asparagus, which was practically raw and also inedible. It was like biting into a carrot. The meal was definitely not worth the $85. During our time there an employee who was in uniform and on the clock was sitting at the bar visiting with two friends and watching videos on her phone with the volume turned up so loudly you couldn't hear the music playing in the bar. Skip this place and go to Foxes Trail or Marble. The food is far better, is about the same price, and the customer service is definitely superior. read more

Took my son, grandaughter, her husband, and my great grandson and I had the worst filet mignon ever. Overcooked and tasteless. Never go there again!!! read more

Food was really good, the gentleman that opened the door for us and sat us was super friendly. We went on Labor Day for my daughters bday. Our server was Larry and he did a good job, we didnt want for anything, he was on top of his game. I had the ribeye and shrimp and it was the best steak I have had in a long time. read more

In November 2024, my Wife and I went and went to outback steak house from Kokomo Indiana. We ordered two Ribeye steak dinners from the takeout. We asked for well done in the middle steaks. Both ribeyes were over cooked. The steaks were basically burnt. We were very disappointed. This was the WORST EXPERIENCE EVER that We have had in our local Outback. We will not be returning. read more

we went outback steakhouse in Kokomo today for lunch. The food was but the server his name is Andrew was the rudest server I have ever had I believe in showing respect for my server, but in return, I believe I deserve to be respected also not only disrespected he disrespected his fellow worker, a young lady who was bringing the food to the table. Also, then when I asked to speak manager, he came back and disrespected him. As he left our table to get the manager, he was laughing at us and rolling his eyes. I will never go back there or if I do go back there I refuse to be served by him.2 read more

Everything was great. Emma was an awesome waitress! Steak and lobster were delicious.

Good food and great service every time when I stop to get something to eat.easy on the wallet to

We don't often think to eat at Outback. In fact, tonight we came when the wait at Texas Roadhouse was too long. Texas' loss is our gain! We need to think of this more often. It's a bit pricier, but still worth it. There was also a wait here, but two bar seats opened up just as we walked in. They were quick to bus and clean the table. The server came and got drinks quickly. Food came out hot and pretty quickly. Chicken on the Barbie was pretty good, but the piece of chicken was so inconsistent in size (really thick one in, tapered to thin at the other) so it didn't cook evenly. The thick end was juicy and perfect, the rest was a bit over done. The salmon was very good. Very friendly and quick service, despite being very busy. We had a great meal! read more

Server was awful. NEVER came back after she took our order. My steak was so tough I couldn't eat it. Broccoli was brown. Baked potato had been baked earlier and warmed up to be served. It was lukewarm and tasted old. Our server did not give us our bill until we got up, ready to leave and she finally came over. We will never return to Outback. Food was awful. Service was awful. read more

Unfortunately I couldn't eat their food, I think they must use corn pepper on everything including the Caesar dressing. When you have food allergies you need to know what your eating. I wanted my steak med to well done , I got rare, but that's okay because I couldn't eat it because of the intense pepper corn. read more

Food: Good Service: Atrocious They never texted me to say the food was ready. Naturally, my suspicions were aroused. Stepping inside to investigate, my fears were immediately confirmed. My food was neatly sitting there ready to go, but no one was around to care or take payment. I waited. I flagged down a young busboy who flung a hasty promise at me. He would send help. Help did not come Eventually I made my way to the bar and implored a distracted waitress to come and receive payment. She did. I tried to be nice and left feeling disappointed. read more

Ordered online. Wrong answer! Note 1 order out of 4 was right. My husband picked up and never checks. I'm sick and didn't feel like cooking. So my three ordered and I got baked potato soup. Guess what I didn't get? My soup, and my daughter's soup and my other daughter sweet potato. And my husbands fries. Half our dinner. Never again! read more

The only bright spot about this visit to Outback Kokomo was the Martini was cold and made as requested. Good TERRIBLE! Salmon slimy, clearly thawed out poorly. Vegetables nuked in a microwave, no way are they steamed in any way. Rice, just gross!! Would never return and again the one star was for the bartender and martini. 7:30pm 1/17/22. read more

it was New years so I always understand when it's busy and things can go wrong but it's another thing when ALL the staff is rude and when did management stop having to go around table touching with all customers? our server had no sympathy for us never getting our bar drinks, our appetizer being sold out, then our appetizer being burnt TWICE, having no silverware for us so got plastic silverware minutes after salads were delivered. we are freqent customers at outback and just wanted to leave a critical review as I'm a server too and saw a lot of mistakes that could have been handled much better. read more

Kendle was outstanding! Great customer service Food was ready when I arrived, and Kendle was out to my vehicle immediately. Thanks Kendle!! read more

My family and I went for dinner this evening-the food and the service were both great. Emma did an awesome job taking care of us!!

Unfriendly hostess. We stopped for dinner with our grandsons. As we walked in there were a dozen people waiting while the restaurant was less than half full. I went to the hostess to sign up and she informed us it would be 15-25 minute wait. I asked what for and the reply was that's what the computer says. I said well the restaurant is mostly empty and there is plenty of room to seat all of us. Nope need to wait. I don't mind waiting for a spot but when there is a spot open and you won't seat us it's time to go. Thank goodness Applebees was across the driveway. read more

Worst Curbside experience ever! We waited over 20 minutes past the notification from the restaurant saying they would be right out with our order. Finally went inside the take out door to find our order sitting there and the take out employee taking a different order outside to that customer! When we asked why we had been waiting so long, we were told that the spot we were parked in (space #1) wasn't visible by the camera and she had no idea we were waiting there. After paying nearly $100 for our order (to include a 15% tip), we got home to enjoy the disappointing lukewarm steaks, overdone asparagus, overdone sweet potato with none of the requested addons, and a wilted salad due to it sitting in the bottom of the bag underneath the once warm entrees. Someone tell me, what is the point of the check-in text if the take out employees can't even make an effort to notice who is parked in the curbside spaces which are right outside the freakin' take out door!?!? And she KNEW that space #1 wasn't visible on her camera! read more

The overall experience was amazing. Molly was my server and she really made the night enjoyable. The food was great, if your looking for some great service with outstanding food, Outback is the place to go!!! read more

Way overpriced for what we got... I'm not usually finicky about steaks being rare but I got a 15$ burger that was wasted because the inside was bright pink and cold. Also we had to argue with the server about a drink we had paid for and then finally she looked at the receipt... make sure you are tipping after you check your food folks . We won't be coming back ‍ read more

Great environment love the food !!! Also the service is amazing !! Steak is seasoned very well !!

Majorie or Gabby- I'm not sure which manager should be held accountable for our poor experience this evening. Far too many people were seated for how much the kitchen seemed staffed. Our waitress was doing the best she could given the circumstance.(Haley) We had an hour and a half before we had to leave for our evening engagement, sadly that wasn't enough and we had to get the food to go after waiting 40 minutes after getting our appetizers. The manager so kindly bagged up our food, but offered nothing in the way of an apology for our inconvenience. She did say 'you wanted your food bagged up - here ya go" and hustled away to avoid any conversation. It was remarkable cowardice, but probably the worst was her incompetence in bagging and omitting the silverware. What a sad state of affairs. read more

Today wasn't a good Outback experience. For their not to be a crowd service was slow. Wings weren't well done as requested and husband steak was burnt. Another couple got their food before we did. We've definitely had better service. read more

I sat down at the bar and it was dirty with crumbs everywhere... No it was not busy and I never leave reviews, it takes a lot ... Cindy made me do my order across the bar instead of coming to me face to face... Others sat down in a dirty spot and she moved crumbs out of the way with her hand! The girl sitting there then used the menu to scrape the crumbs off to the side! Disgusting! Will never go back ! read more

The waiter was good but the steak was terrible. We sent back 4 steaks and eventually just got them taken off the bill. I do not blame the manager chef or waitress of anything of this but it was really disgusting. read more

Outback Steakhouse - Kids Mac - Steakhouses Near Me - Kokomo, Indiana

I don't know why this restaurant has only a 2.5 star rating. I give it a 5 because our meal and service was outstanding today. Gabby was our server and she was friendly, efficient, professional, and just perfect in every way. She even asked if there was any topping we wanted to leave off of our salads. Thoughtful! The salad bowls were cold, and the lettuce crisp...the way a salad should be served. The bread was warm, crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and served with real butter. The appetizer of aussie fries served with an ample bowl of ranch dressing was the best we've had at any Outback. The coconut shrimp was perfectly prepared and we were accommodated with regular shrimp sauce, as we don't particularly like the marmalade sauce that normally comes with it. Oh, and if you're and iced tea drinker, Outback has the best! We didn't have an entree today, but if we had I know it would've been scrumptious judging by everything else we had. The atmosphere was very relaxing and overall we were very pleased with our Outback experience today. We will definitely be visiting the Kokomo Outback more often. read more

5pm Friday dinner with my daughter was unimpressive and not worth the cost. Management was untrained. Bathrooms were clean. This is important! Host young man asked me 3 times about a kids menu???? Seriously, you dont understand English? Upsell anyone? Cmon kid! My "child" is more mature than half the adults and we came here for dinner, not a drive thru so give me what i asked for! Frozen VIRGIN daiquiri in a pint glass for $6.50? You kidding me? At least dress the glass with something! A straw is all we got. Dinner salads were average. 6oz sirloin, Aussie fries and coconut shrimp - well cooked steak but a bit too much butter added . Shrimp were perfect. Fries are nothing special, but the portion size is small. Fries are dirt cheap people!!! The portion should be large. Its a filler food like bread. Cmon man!?!?! 12oz ribeye and baked potato- Tater was basic industry standard. Steak was Waffle House quality...and fatty, not marbled, over buttered. At least it was cooked to medium and my dog ate well with the 6+oz of scrap meat i took home. Waste of $22 in my opinion. Carrot cake - Got this to go. For $7.99 each, its not impressive, but ok. Icing is very sugary thick, not a true cream cheese taste. Bottom center of the cake was slightly under cooked and "wet" rather than moist. Again, the dog ate well. $65 birthday dinner was 1/2 @$$ at best. But it gets better boys and girls! So time to pay, and i used my gift cards. Sadly, both my waitress AND restaurant manager didnt know how to use my gift card. Mind you, i used the same card there 2 weeks ago, and still had the receipt in my wallet. So after a very rude dealing with the manager, i paid in cash and left. I called Outback corporate to confirm my gift cards had the proper balance, and of course, they did. The gentleman also stated the restaurant manager was ill-trained and provided a solution to help next time. So... I called the restaurant manager and told her about my call to corporate and the solution offered. She stated she did all she could and "well i dont know how to do that". Well sweetheart, i dont write reviews, but i do now, and its pretty darn sweet to say to the world that your uneducated, ignorant, and unprofessional @$$ is the reason my crew of workers will NOT be having our monthly dinner there. So do the math: 22 hungry men × ZERO dollars for you. Have a great day mates! read more

I went in for lunch today, it was about 11:35 when I got there. There were a few other customers, definitely less than ten people total in the restaurant. I sat at the bar, so my server was Christy. She was pleasant and attentive. The problem is that it took almost 20 minutes to get a single order of wings, so by the time it came out, I had to get it in a box to make sure I wasn't late getting back to work. One order of wings shouldn't take that long. If it had come out in the ten minutes I was expecting, I could have eaten at least some of it before needing to leave. The other issue wasn't huge, but it was weird. I asked for a drink to go when I left, and she gave it to me in a kid's cup. I paid for a full size drink while I was sitting there, give me a full size refill. read more
