Call me crazy but I don't go to Outback for the steak. I've ordered steaks before and they are good, better quality than Texas Roadhouse IMO. I come to Outback for the same three things: the chicken tortilla soup, the chopped blue cheese salad and the grilled salmon. Both the chicken tortilla soup and the chopped blue cheese salad are premium sides and require an additional charge but they are worth it. The soup is really flavorful and the chopped salad is one of my favorite restaurant salads. Of course the grilled salmon is good as well, I usually get the smaller portion if I order the soup and salad. I will go back and highly recommend the tortilla soup and chopped blue cheese salad. read more

As we passed by the nearby correctional facility we were concerned for our safety. All of our concerns quickly dissipated as we walked through the doors of the Kokomo Outback Steakhouse. The smell of warm bread and Australian spirit greeted us. We sat down to order our meal and were greeted by a friendly and helpful server. She quickly returned with two loaves of freshly baked Bushman bread. As the knife sank through the Bushman, we speedily realized this wasn't your typical loaf. We were used to the hard, cold slices baked at our local Outback. We were screaming "more more" as we were ready to cancel our order and eat a dinner of Bushman. As the server came to fill our beverages, we just kept saying "more bread please". Before we knew it we had gnawed through 8 loaves. Our dinner experience was so magical, we dreamed about bread and will be returning for dinner there tomorrow. read more

Gabriella was our server and did a wonderful job! Our drinks were refilled before we had to ask and she made sure we had everything we needed. Our food was delicious as usual. Service like this is why we keep coming back. read more

What a wonderful experience we had! And the best part was having Sage as our server. She was super attentive and expected my every need! It's severs like Sage that will make us coming back time and time again! read more

Saige was amazing server which saved the review from the Quality and the standards which should be upheld in a restaurant kitchen coming from a EC. first chili came out ice cold which means management failed to do temperature check. And then when entree came, the rice had way too much garlic to the point where you couldn't eat it And was over cooked and mushy. which means management failed to do a quality check. And not one time did a manager come see how are experience was going at this location, showing the management could care less. but saige was a rock star. Made up for the whole experience with her attitude and friendliness. and her mode set to put customer service and experience first. read more

The $23.49 New York Strip was half gristle. Gristle along the top, a full 1 inch on the end and also a long strip running end to end requiring that I dissect the meat away from gristle. I should have sent it back but was so sure there would be a good piece in the next cut. ( optimists Ha!) I showed the waiter and a person who asked about satisfaction but nothing was done. Surprised! read more

Met Donny tonight. Appears to be a greater / manager. Good food. Service is not bad. Always friendly staff. Odd thing though. The 8oz prime rib is the exact same size as the 16oz ribeye. Hmmmm....... ?? read more

Thank you, Kelley B, for making our outback experience that much worse. On top of steaks WAY too chewy & overcooked, being sold out of popular sides and forgetting refills and condiments, we were very disappointed with our experience. Despite Kelley B refusing to honor our coupon and trying to charge us for the kids' drinks that the kids menu says are included, the manager was VERY nice and helpful, correcting our issues and apologize for what we dealt with. Next time I must have outback, I'll stick with the Great Barrier Trio at a different location. Ps the carrot cake here is amazing! read more

I am not a big fan of outback on a regular basis anyway. But my family loves it here.....most of the time....so we come. But tonight it was absolutely horrible from the service to the food. The chicken fingers were over cooked, the steaks were messed up, one under cooked and one over cooked. The waitress seemed extremely stressed and snappy. She kept saying that they were busy tonight. But there are at least 10 open tables I can see from my seat. She didn't want to honor our coupon and tried to charge us for drinks with our kids meals. Where is states that kids meals come with a drink. Oh brother...... Asked to talk to the manager and he saved us as customers. Because with the experience we had I don't need to come back to an outback ever in my life!! read more

Servers doing pretty good but the kitchen is struggling. Very friendly service. Great hostess. Very helpful staff. However, the server didn't know the Father's Day specials...and turns out they were already out of the special. (Around 2pm) My Sirloin was ok and how I asked it to be cooked...but didn't have much flavor. Guess I'm spoiled by Logan's and Longhorn's. My wife's Sirloin was undercooked and unbalanced. (She asked for Well and it had running blood in one half) We didn't want to wait to send it back, so she ate the half that was cooked to about a medium. Wish I had went to the Texas Roadhouse down the street. Oh, the bread was hot and the refills kept coming. read more

Our waitress Sage did great at answering all our menu questions and keeping our glasses full! The food was delicious!

Everything was great! Sage was our server and she was very attentive & made the dining experience so much better!

Although extremely busy on a Saturday night, the wait staff was efficient, the food was excellent and the place is clean. One of the better experiences at an Outback Restaurant. read more

I sat at the bar. Bartender decided not to wear her mask over her mouth, let alone her nose. She did not care about my health. I gave her a $0.33 tip (just to make it an even number). Her tip would have been $25 (my bill was $24.99 + tax). Wear your damn mask and wear it as designed!!!!!!!! read more

coconut shrimp so good i would put it in my ass. now it says my review is so short that i can't post it so i'm using this as a filler to see if this is good enough i love their coconut shrimp yes okay yes. read more

The food was fine, but we waited over an hour and a half for the meal. Took at least 30 minutes just to get a drink.

I've been to many Outbacks as I love steak but this one has poor management and I will never go back. With two friends and I ordered a simple steak medium rare and got it raw. I directly ask for the manager ( as the sever does not cook steaks). A man comes up with no name tags, I had to ask him his name, Don and he saw it was raw and said he would quickly get a medium rare steak. The steak never came for 20 minutes and my two friend finished their meal. My steak came out raw again. I called the manager over and told him I didn't get to eat with my fiends and got a raw steak. He knocked off a few bucks, no apology and didn't even care. So sad and will never go back. read more

Ate lunch with friends Friday, 2/16/18. Very few people in the restaurant, service was terribly slow. One friend ordered ribs and was told they wouldn't be ready until 4:00 PM although they were on the lunch menu. I ordered a Philly Cheesesteak sandwich for $12.49. I could've gotten a better one at Subway a lot cheaper. Did I mention the service was really poor? Last stop at Outback for myself and my friends. read more

Great food and service. Definitely the place to go in Kokomo. Went in for dinner and the staff was amazing. Took great care of me and truly seemed to care. Food was amazing. Everything was fresh and cooked perfectly. read more

Went to the Outback steakhouse on my 74th birthday and ordered the top round steak, love an ounce with baked potato and take it welded dressing on the salad. The salad was great as usual but the baked potato was small and the steak was overcooked as I had ordered it medium oil. The service was excellent but I will not be returning to this steakhouse again. I have eaten at mini out back and this was the worst meal that I've ever had at outback read more

Didn't really have a good experience here. Wasn't awful, but definitely bad enough that I won't be coming again. The first slip-up was when they brought me the house salad that came as a side for my steak order. On top of the salad was a completely black/gray onion that had mold on it. This was bad because not only are they using old ingredients in the kitchen, but the server didn't even look at the food before she brought it out. If she had, she surely would have caught it because it was right on top and was the first thing I noticed. I signaled the manager over and told her. She took it and put in a replacement order right away, and our server brought the new one out. They both apologized but honestly didn't seem that apologetic. I have worked in the service industry before and I know that any of the restaurants I worked at would have comped at least something on the meal for this. It just seemed like poor service on their part. To top it all off, the steak that I ordered cooked at medium temperature came out as what looked like well done. It still tasted good but was a major operating error to screw that up. Like I said, not a good overall experience. read more

LOVE Kokomo's Outback Steakhouse! We Love Their Steaks and cheese fries and much more!!!! We always feel welcome from the hostess to the owner! Friendly employees and dinning area is always clean! Defiantly going back! read more

Love outback! Service is usually always great, food is great, they have good lobster. Only complaint is last visit, we had a large group, we made sure to call ahead and let them know but they still did not have a table ready for us. Also, i orderd the macaroni n cheese and apparently they ran out of the penne pasta, but instead of coming out and telling me and asking me if i would like something else, they brought spaghetti noodles with the macaroni sauce on them? i know they are both pasta but it was just weird for me. Zach is a great server. and RJ read more

We visited on a busy evening. The area was small for so many customers waiting to be seated. Our server was slow, food was just ok. Blooming onion was good though a little greasier than most. Alice Springs Chicken was tasty but a little smaller than usual. read more

The best food ever I would recommend coming here they have the best burgers in Kokomo

I loveeeeeeeee this place!!!!!!!!!! Yummy good, great friendly service, and the wallaby darn!!

Last night was my first visit to this Outback Steakhouse. The menu on hand was the special Lobster and Steak special for $15.99. I was prepared for a mediocre meal but really wanted to taste their lobster. Not only was I quite surprised at the preparation of the lobster--the steak was also quite delicious. Kudos to their grill staff last night! Our server, Patty, was very attentive and proactive as to what was needed at the table. The managers have done a fantastic job of finding servers that want to work and have a passion for their job. Thank you for a wonderful experience! read more

Saturday night my husband and I went for dinner. It was a complete disaster! The waitress was high as a kite to start with and was having hard time understanding any of our order. My husband ordered a 6oz Filet w/grilled shrimp-well done. I ordered a Filet w/lobster-medium. After 40 minutes and a salad that was completely wilted and brown, our food came out. His steak came out with a baby shrimp/tomato mixture on top of it and his sides were wrong ( he is allergic to tomatoes). My steak came out so rare it could have been raw, also with two wrong sides. We sent them back! The second time they came out, his was a sirloin steak, not a filet and full of gristle w/no sides at all. Mine steak was again rare, rare, rare and again with the wrong sides After 2 hours we chose to leave rather than wait for a 3rd meal to be brought to our table. The restaurant manager never came to our table! On the way out we went to him instead as he sat chatting in the bar. After having explained the problem and that we were leaving his reply was," so sorry, have a wonderful evening" and he proceeded on with his conversation with his friends. We will never ever go back to the Outback SteakHouse in Kokomo or any of their other location ever again. read more

Horrible service. First of all, the lemonade was basically lemony water. Zero lemonade in it. Not only that, but we waited over an hour and a half for the mashed potatoes to be disgustingly salty, the steaks to be on the wrong plates, the vegetables not sautéed, the salads so overdressed that the lettuce was soggy, and the chicken dry as hell. After all this happening, the manager comes out and gives us ZERO compensation. Nothing. And after this, it took us 20 minutes to GET the check and another 10 for them to figure out how to swipe the card correctly. I just don't understand how incompetent not only the workers can be, but the managers too. Absolutely horrible service, horrible food, and idiotic workers. Please save yourself the money and time and go to the Applebee's next to this outback. read more

This outback is outrageous!! We were told a 25 minute wait and ended up waiting for an hour and a half while people walking in got seated before our party. Finally once we got seated it took forever to give our order and forever for the waiter to put in the order. I am pretty sure you are supposed to put the order in after asking the customers what they would like. I am sad to say I will not be returning to this outback, the one in south bend is much better and the managers are actually good. read more

The worst outback I've ever ate at in my life. Rude service and they chump you big time.

Service was good but the food was a little hard to swallow. Steak was tough and tasted like a roast and the baked potato crumbled.

Don't know the difference between a filet and a sirloin. We argued to no avail. Filets are not flat and chewy. When Paris the waiter quit it went down hill. read more

Not worth the wait or money. We had to ask for everything multiple times, the mignon had lots of gristle and was over cooked. My French onion soup, which was the only thing I ordered, didn't show up until we flagged down another waiter and then it came when everyone else was almost done. No one even asked how the meal was and the manager disappeared. . Other tables around us had the same issues. read more

We arrived at Outback this Thursday at 12:30 p.m. and it was closed. Nothing on the website stating they would be closed. We drove over from Peru. Very disappointed in lack of communication. read more

The service at this location is phenomenal, and the food is exceptional! I love Outback and have been to a lot of different Outback restaurants, but this one is just extra awesome. I usually get a small steak, baked potato, salad, and blooming onion. read more

I've been a loyal customer of this location for the last 5 years. Unfortunately my last 4 visits have been terrible. 2 dining in and 2 absolutely terrible visits for carry-out. All visits involved incorrect food and\or cold food. I've made the on-duty manager aware every time and was promised a refund of my last carryout meal. After 3 weeks, the refund came in the mail and didn't even cover half of the food that we were unable to eat or wasn't received. There are many other places in town, I'll take my money elsewhere until the service improves here. read more

Ssllooww service ! 20 min to get drink order and they weren't even busy ! By the time we got our food it was barely warm! I had go to the bar myself to get refill on my drink! Food was good! Service sucks! read more
