I used to really like Outback. However the last three times I've gone the food has been marginal at best. I've had improperly cooked steaks, bad sides, and just bad steaks. I know this isn't a high end place so I'm not expecting Prime cuts but the last time I was there the ribeye I had was almost entirely fat (not marbled, solid fat) and the parts that were actually meat were badly overcooked. On the positive side the staff is consistently very friendly and efficient. The drinks are good. It is however now just bad food that is poorly cooked. read more

AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING customer service. Everyone was amazing but ZACK stole the show for me. He has an incredible "We can do it" attitude. He was extremely patient and pleasant. Had amazing eye contact, he was efficient. I ordered a medium rare ribeye- then realized I wanted a New York strip instead and he assured me I wasn't doing to much that they were happy to make the adjustment for me. The steak was juicy and amazing! But then I realized I wanted it more in the medium side and again without any Issue the adjustment came. The whole team had a great synergy. You could tell management makes good service fun. To top it off. My husband left his card behind and here comes Zack running to give him his card IN THE RAIN!!I I haven't been to Outback in YEARS! I'll happily return when I'm craving an Incredible juicy steak. I mostly just want to say THANK YOU to Zach and hope he gets recognized for going above and beyond. This world is changing and it's great to see young men be great! read more

The Valencia location is always busy. Too bad they don't have the "Put me on the list" option. We had the steak and grilled shrimp. Classic, I know but it is always tasty. The tilapia with lump crab is delicious and filling as well. Open seating in the bar is nice. Bar service is s little slow. Taken a while to get the bill and pay for the bill. The place is full though. read more

Outback Steakhouse - New Tower Shrimp - Steakhouses Near Me - Newhall, California

Decided on a whim to go here for dinner last night with the family since we haven't been to in Outback in at least 10 years. We sat outside which was nice but the patio could use a nice cleaning, lots of cobwebs on wall and dead bugs. My son wanted to try the Blooming Onion as an appetizer. It was definitely not appetizing to me but my kid enjoyed it despite it being greasy. It was too greasy for me and the sauce had a weird aftertaste. We all ordered some kind of steak and my son opted for the pasta with steak and shrimp since he never had shrimp and wanted to try it. We all enjoyed our meals and my son said that he liked the shrimp but it wasn't something he would get frequently. The dish looked really oily. He had a lot of pasta left over so we boxed it up to go. At 1:30am he came into our bedroom saying he had thrown up. He has not thrown up since he was a toddler. Maybe it was a lot of olive oil in the pasta or the greasy Blooming Onion. Luckily he felt better after about 30 minutes. I have to say our server was excellent and took great care of us. Being the only guests on the patio was nice since we got to chat about our day. read more

Bridget was a wonderful host, she offered crayons to our kids while we waited and made us feel very welcome. She answered all of the questions we had and made sure to get us seated in a timely manner! read more

I definitely recommend going here, food was yummy and the manager Jason was awesome. I just love the feel of the restaurant.

Visited our local outback today and WOW what great service we had! Tracy the manager was doing a killer job helping out the waitstaff. It was VERY busy so both Tracy and another server (Mighty Mouse) really stepped it up... stellar service and good food. Thanks for a great experience! read more

Outback used to be one of favorite places to eat at. Unfortunately the food and service has really gone down hill. Poorly cooked and cold filets and baked potatoes, warm salads and it took forever to get our drinks and appetizers. We had a group of 6 and everyones meals looked very sad. It was Mother's Day but the place was not even half full. Hopefully it was a really, really bad fluke, but we won't be visiting this location again. read more

Well, never had an issue before. But tonight was classic. I onlined an order and was told to pick it up at a certain time. I arrived at the appointed time and waited. And waited. No one at the takeaway door to greet or get your order. Finally, a server comes out and hands me my bag. I peek in and everything appears to be there. I walk back to my hotel. Upon opening the bag I discover no cutlery, no side orders a porterhouse instead of a filet. I march back and get the same server. Inform her of the errors. She says, "when we spoke on the phone you told me no sides." "I placed my order online. I never talked to anyone." She looks inside and discovers she's given me the wrong bag. She gives me my order. Except no cutlery. Oh well, I got two lobster tails out of the deal. I would think they'd be a bit more observant when handing out food orders. The food was good, though. read more

Staff is very helpful and attentive. Food is always consistent and yummy. Going again tomorrow night!

I decided to give this place two more chances and hey still apparently cannot cook a steak well done. They come cooked medium every single time. Every time I give this place a chance they disappoint. How can a steak house not cook a steak how it's ordered? If they cannot cook a steak as requested why is it offered as a cooking style? read more

I've stopped here twice driving from SF to Scottsdale. Clean, reliable, and varied menu. The salads are so fresh and delicious. The service on both occasions was stellar - Zach was our last serve, and he was great! Outback Steakhouse in Santa Clarita will always be our go-to dinner spot. read more

French soup is very delicious, service friendly and fast. Food is always excellent. Nice to come with friends. Friendly Atmosphere. read more

I had the worst experience here last night , everything was dirty on the table , food was cold & no quality at all seems wasn't fresh , did like server the way service us , not recommended at all , is was the last time be there .... Don't wast your money read more

Maybe the more we pay, the more we expect! Outback's food preparation has reduced its quality. Being one of my favored eating spots, I have had one or two things go wrong with every takeout order in the last 2 months. Never mind missing utensils. Lobster tails oversteamed, ribs overcooked and drowned in bbq sauce, cold side bread. C'mon! The green salads have been very good. A coke was missed on one order, and extra tea added On another. The quality control steps are being missed. Time to check my orders at pickup! Geez! read more

Service was good, though my porterhouse didn't have any or extremely little seasoning, cooked perfectly though The lobster dinner was pretty below average with those two little tails Most likely won't be back as too many good restaurants around read more

Horrible prime rib. Ordered 3 dinners to go. Missing 5 out of six sides. No vegetables at all. Called and they said we would receive a gift card for our troubles. Never showed. Wouldn't really use it anyway read more

I came here last month and ordered three steak and lobster tail dinners to go to go All three dinners were supposed to have loaded baked potato after placing the order the employee came out to my truck and told me that they're out of baked potatoes if I wanted the loaded mashed potatoes I told him sure why not I told him I wanted to orders of that and one order of mac & cheese because my son does not like clam chowder when I got home I was missing the mac & cheese on his order I called the restaurant right away and the guy told me he was very sorry and that he would make a note on the wall that next time I was there they would give me the missing mac & cheese today I went there and talk to the manager and he said there's nothing he can do since normally they don't deal that way very disappointing after spending close to $150 for dinner read more

The wait took a long time , even with a reservation. Service was slow and it took forever to get the bill. We had a party of 6 , one being a toddler, and we were there almost three hours. We won't be back. read more

Very good service great food and good Aussie food, Julia our waitress was the best. Will for sure come back again

This place is slowly dying, understaffed, forgot to bring appetizer, never came by to refill water.

We ate here for our 5 year anniversary and our server Stephanie was amazing and made the night extra special!

First time at an Outback Steakhouse and it was the worst meal my family has ever had out at a restaurant. The shrimp, steak, pasta, hamburger--you name it, it was bad. The server was really nice and the ambience was fine, but the food was so low quality I couldn't help but laugh. When they brought it out, we stared in disbelief and then started laughing in what I can only describe as dumbstruck horror. Nothing like what you see in the photos on the menu, this was basically a step below Applebees in quality. I walked out feeling pretty angry about dropping a hundred dollars on crap, especially when we had so many other options. Never again. read more

Great place good food. Order it medium well because if order just medium sometimes under cook . When order medium well comes out good. Recommend read more

This outback is the worst. I asked for a drink never got it. I asked for bbq sauce never got it. I asked for more bread and had to wait forever while other people received theirs. The waiter came once after we got our food and asked if we wanted a to go box's not if the food was good if we are good if we needed anything. I won't recommend this place at all. read more

the worst service I've ever had. took 20 minutes just to get water. server sucked so bad It overshadowed the great food!!! they told us the beer wasn't cold on a Friday at 4:30? I was livid my husband gave him a tip. we had to get water ourselves for my father in a wheelchair so he could take his meds before the guy came over to us. 5 different tables got food and left after we were already sitting there read more

Came here tonight, Tuesday evening, had a party of 7 adults and 1 toddler. Everything took forever, drinks, appetizers, food, check, boxes. Over an hour to get our entrees. The food was mediocre at best. Honestly the amount of time it took for everything put a dent in the evening. No apologies for anything, when we asked about our food, our server said it takes a while when you have a large party... wish I would never have recommended to our group to eat here. None of us will be coming back. It looked like the server was busy, but the manager should have prepared for being understaffed and should have been aware/apologized for the service. Can't imagine how bad the service would be on a Friday or Saturday night... read more

Not a great experience kadt night. Granted, this us nit a fancy strakhouse, but we still expect better. The bone in rib eye barelt had a bone and was extremely fatty, even for a ribeye We waited a good twenty minutes to be seated because of a staffing issue, and then were seated in an area being cleaned, wet floor with cones, in a section totally abandoned by all signs of life, cleaning fluid spray bottle left on booth divider... Got a bit of stink face from the hostess when we asked to be moved, with a comment,"I asked them to move that stuff". The bone in rib eye had more fat than what you would normally have on even a fatty cut, the bone was barely there, literally the size of a quarter. Server was good. read more

Went here for dinner as a treat for my nearby college student I was visiting. Second time this year I've been to an Outback. While I know you don't want your steak overcooked, both places served items that were underdone significantly from what was ordered, so I'm thinking the corporate standards either need to be updated or fixed. This particular location, we had two different steak dinners. Both steaks came out luke warm and underdone. The sides were piping hot, so it was obvious the steaks had been sitting for awhile. My steak was tough as shoe leather, but that can happen, so that's really not on them. The lobster and shrimp were great. The other steak was melt in your mouth tender, just rare, versus the medium ordered. When we told the waiter, he totally took care of us and went beyond anything we could expect and deserves 5 stars himself. Actually, the staff at both locations were really awesome. If the food quality was consistent, there'd be no stopping Outback. read more

Okay went there for dinner last night with some friends and one of the male guest in our party needed to use the restroom and the restroom was an absolute disgusting mess. There was urine all over the floor in one stall and there was human feces all over the toilet seat in the other stall. This was is the men's restroom and so he asked for the manager to bring it up to her attention she said " I don't use that restroom or go in there so I wouldn't know what it looks like" She was not one bit disturbed or alarmed by the problem nor did she seem to care about the problem. It is the responsibility of the manager to make sure the restrooms are cleaned on a regular basis. Her reaction to the issue was alarming because she was not once apologetic nor took responsibility for the disgusting facility. I would have posted the photos but they are very foul and quite disturbing and feel nobody needs to see that. I will not be returning to this restaurant because the service and quality is slowly going down hill. Meal was so-so service was okay but the Manager was not qualified to be a manager and she does not run a clean and sanitary restaurant. read more

Service was good but not enough help. The server did her best. The food was cold and our steaks were all wrong. Won't be going back.

We came on a Friday night with a big party so that's always a little hectic but they sat us right away .. our server was great! Very friendly and very attentive.. he was on top of our drinks before we even asked. On top of the excellent service the food was great! Everything was cooked perfectly ! A+ team Friday night! 11.9.19 read more

Unfortunately our Father's Day visit to Outback Steakhouse was particularly lackluster. Upon arrival for our reservation at 4:00 p.m., we had to wait until 4:45 p.m. to be seated despite numerous booths being empty. We were with a grandparent with Alzheimers, so we couldn't stay long. Upon seating we ordered our food. It did not arrive until 6:00 p.m. The Philly cheesesteak was soggy and the salads were equivalent to McDonald salads. One of the steaks was ordered medium - medium rare. It arrived VERY rare. So rare, in fact, that it made that family member ill. The second steak was over cooked. We weren't checked on for about 20-30 minutes, at which point we then asked for it to be thrown back on the grill for a bit. It was eaten later that evening, and made that family member Ill again. It's a day later, and she is still sick from the steak. I would expect a steak house to be able to nail the temperature on a filet mignon - not have it dangerously undercooked. There are better places folks. read more

I came in on a Sunday evening at 6 pm for a small family birthday dinner. I was not excepting much from the overall experience since I have not had good experiences and food from Outback in the past. However, I was pleasantly surprised. I had arrived with one other person and we were seated within 10 minutes of approaching the host stand. We were still waiting for a few more people in our group to show up so I was worried the server would be annoyed that we had already been seated, but quite the opposite, she was very welcoming. Took our drink order almost immediately and brought us some bread to eat in the meantime as well. Once our party arrived we then ordered a Bloomin Onion, and it arrived promptly and was very good. We also then ordered dinner which was timely brought out as well and it all tasted very good. I ordered a Pork Chop that was juicy, very flavorful and not dry at all. The server acknowledged the birthday in our group as well. Overall it was a very nice meal. The service was excellent, food was so much better than expected and that was a plus. The only concern were the restrooms. They were not very well maintained and it was hard to differentiate between a public park restroom and this restaurants' as it smelled pretty bad in there. Other than that, I definitely enjoyed the overall experience and would be back again. Small tidbit - the parking lot is quite small and parking anything larger than a car or small SUV will be challenging on busy nights. read more

Great service, great value, awesome prime rib! We got drinks, steak, and kids meals all for under $100. Can't beat that on family night out :) read more

I didn't have the highest expectations going in, but I thought that the steak should at least be decent since it has "steakhouse" in its name. I was wrong. The steak is comparable to how Dennys or IHOP would prepare a steak. Also, the quality of the meat was not good, and the meat is the same type of thin fatty choice meat found at Ralph's. Not worth the price or the visit. Pass on this one. read more

Really amazing staff and food is just the best and very consistent stop by and see Curtis he is one of the best servers. read more
