The restaurant with the incredibly shrinking portions and absurd menu prices. It has been some time since we were last at an Outback. I ordered the Outback Special steak which used to be 12 ounces at one time and reasonably priced but it has now turned into a 6 oz $17 waste of money. My spouse ordered a $16 chicken breast entree that was laughable...it was smaller than the palm of my hand. $16 for a tiny piece of chicken!!! Oh, I guess I forgot to add that they threw a few pieces of broccoli on our plates; by the way, your food is now placed on smaller plates so it seems like you're getting a plate full of food. We were not fooled by this trickery, lol. Our bloomin onion was over-fried and shrunken as well. Never mind the incredibly slow service.... I did enjoy my Diet Coke tho We really used to enjoy going here but no more. read more

Great flavor on the meat. Best baby back ribs. The chicken breast with mushrooms, cheese and bacon WONDERFUL. BUT!!! The baked potato had to be thrown away. Rotten all the way through. See picture. Was really ready for a baked potato. read more

Let me start with, we were regulars here until Sunday. I ordered what I always order a medium 9oz. sirloin, salad & loaded baked potato. I ate the salad which was whatever and when my steak arrived I cut it in half and almost lost my salad, I have never seen a more disgusting piece of raw meat. I flagged down the waitress and she immediately said she would bring me a new steak which she did. I cut that one in half and it was fine Until I found what looked to me like a 2" white worm, not pasta, not a bean sprout, I flagged down the waitress again and she immediately took my plate away and apologized. The manager came over and was very understanding as to why I lost my appetite and took the meal off our bill. All that being said, I have had more bad meals here than good, the service is good but the quality of food served here is bad I can't say it any other way it's just bad. I couldn't take pictures because I was so completely grossed out. Eat there at your own risk. read more

Outdoor dining experience was great. They have space heaters so you're not too cold. Can't wait to be able to eat in again. Our waitress was really nice and accommodating. Definitely will eat here again. read more

I'm sad to write this review becuse I frequent this place 2 times a week. Service has never been great but today was by far the worst. Waited 15 min at my table to get acknowledged. Waited over 30 mins to place my order my waitress was never to be found. Food came out but never came back to check on us, refills never came. Was not apologetic for the non-service we got. I don't think I'll come back. read more

Outback is one of my favorite restaurants! I love all of the choices that are offered on the menu! My husband and I decided to eat in the resturant!! WE love to get our food on the way home! But tonight we are dining in! We like the curbside ordering that is available! read more

The food was horrible. lack of taste. tasted like it was onbthe freezer for days and lack of taste. Everyone who joined us for dinner got food poisoning. wouldn't recommend for you coming To the one in Palmdale the one by the AV mall. read more

Boy this place has gone downhill! We took my in-laws there on Saturday to celebrate his 89th. I had the Cobb salad which was probably the worst I've ever had. Fast food restaurants have better salads. The lettuce was yellow. There was less than 2 ounces of chicken. There was no blue chess or avocado. The bacon-it was dust and therefore, almost invisible. You couldn't even taste it. I would have sent it back but our waitress disappeared and everyone was eating. My father-in-laws ribs had been boiled to the point of falling off the bone. My husband said that the restroom was filthy! read more

Awesome service from Terry , he was fast and friendly even helped us out with some recommendations on the food. I'm glad we came in for dinner read more

Best dining experience since coming started. Food was great I had the blooming onion steak and lobster. Cooked perfectly. Waitress was so attentive even though they were really busy. Did not have to wait long for anything. The bread is brought to the table warm with plenty of butter. And all you have to do is ask for more. We'll worth the price. read more

The service was great our waiter was pretty on it but the steak was over cooked but even though I decided not to complain it was tasty a bit dry I won't return for the price it wasn't worth it I did enjoy the potato but 27 dollars for a potato is a bit much my wife ate to much bread she didn't touch her food it didn't look to appetizing but she did say later she tasted the ribs and it wasn't bad but she wouldn't buy it again so all in all the service was good the bread was good but for the price I'll go somewhere else read more

We haven't eaten here in a long time, but we had a gift card, which was good because I would have been pissed to have spent $100 of my own money on the sub-par meal we had. It started with a $9 cocktail (raspberry lemon drop) that was small, overly sweet, had no garnish or flair, and just tasted like pink kool-aid with vodka poured into a martini glass. The strawberry lemonade was advertised on the menu as having fresh strawberry, which it did not, just a gross syrup instead. Both of us ordered the ribeye med-rare. Mine was rare and his was medium and tasted old and mealy. The sneaky upsell of two scoops of garlic butter that added $5 to our bill was also annoying. Who thought charging $2.50 for a garnish on a $32 steak was a good idea? It's why we'll never be back. Two stars because at least the server was adequate, but you shouldn't be forcing them to be sneaky about upselling. read more

This could have easily been a 5 star experience at this location but the waitress fumbled the good grade. My wife and I ordered our food and everything was great. The drinks were good, the waitress offered more bread and the garlic Parmesan fries were a great deal. However I ordered my steak as Well. It came to back a bite or two in it was clearly medium well. I let my waitress know and she said they would remake it for me. So I had the chicken and baked potato while I waited. The remake never came. The next time I saw my waitress she asked if I wanted a box for my food. I said no I was still waiting on my remake. The remake never came. I stopped another waitress to check on what was taking so long and I guess my waitress went on break without telling the cooks. I asked for the check and we left. My wife liked her food and outside of my steak my food was great too. So 3/5 stars. I wanted to do 1 or 2 stars but my wife did mention that not everything was awful and the grade shouldn't be because of one item and bad service. read more

Outstanding food, service and environment. Greeted warmly, seated promptly and order was taken in a reasonable amount of time considering the crowd. Chelsea and John were great servers and very attentive. The steaks were cooked to our satisfaction and as ordered. The only disappointment was the size of the Koookaburra wings. They were extremely small and the price is to high for wings that small. read more

We ordered take out this time, one meal-so over priced. They overcooked the asparagus and forgot my dressing for my salad. Seriously disappointed. read more

Not what I expected. I ordered crab legs, baked potato, and a wedge salad. The salad was good, the potato was cold (cheese did not melt), and the crab legs were overcooked (meat was hard), and the broccoli was overcooked. Our server MJ was very helpful. She continuously came by our table to make sure we were OK. When I told her about the crab, she quickly informed the manager. The manager was very understanding and apologized for the food. She offered to compensate for the inconvenience. I was impressed with the old school customer service. The grandkids enjoyed their food. read more

Amazing Service and excellent tasty food. Steak done with perfection. Very relaxed atmosphere.

Always Solid My wife are seniors and I go to one of their locations about three or four times a year. We typically order the 9oz. Outback sirloin with a baked potato and a salad. We will split the dinner and add a salad and are quite satisfied. This location was very clean and the service was great as always. read more

Great experience EXCEPT ordered my steak medium, m e d i u m. 3/4 of the cut was cooked somewhat medium more like medium rare but when it came down to the best/ last bites, I'm surprised the steak didn't get up and run it was so raw. Good food otherwise read more

The prices were outrageous, the sodium content was so high it felt like a stroke waiting to happen. The smell of the place was so nasty, it was downright embarrassing. If you asked, "Would I come here again?" I'd say, "Hell no." Not only was the food bad, but the environment was also horrible. My family and I believe this place is horrendous, and I might add, horrific. I was confused to find out that this place was flourishing. And the amount of time we had to wait for our order? Your grandma in a wheelchair rolls faster! If you're driving by this place, just keep driving! read more

3 stars because it depends on who the cook is. I have gone in and had a perfect steak and then other days the steak is like a tire.... I have also had very bad experiences with their seafood. So when I go I get a steak, baked potato (can't mess that up) and the wedge salad. The wedge salad gets 2 stars by itself. Something about the blu cheese with the balsamic it is crazy good. read more

Let's just talk steaks! I've been to our Outback two days in one week. Both days I ordered the ribeye steak. Totally enjoyed every bite! The staff is super friendly and attentive. Way to be consistent Outback. read more

Wanted to enjoy lunch with my friend of 41 years. How disappointing to be seated and ignored. We sat there for 15 minutes nobody came there so we turned on the light on the kiosk so that a server will come we were still ignored for another 10 minutes! So out the door we go! There is-no need to stay anywhere you know you're not wanted because the waitress walks by you and just doesn't see you. Obviously because all 275 pounds of me is invisible ~ I will not return. read more

Ordered for pick up. The food was cold and gross. I ordered filet mignon and received was looked like a flat burger patty. It wasn't a patty but it was as flat as one. Hubby ordered bone ribeye and received a ribeye with no bone and it had tons of fat. The only edible food was the aussie fries and tiny lobster tail....and the bread. Not going back there. Waste of money. read more

It's not all Outback Steakhouse's just this one in Palmdale Ca. We came in at 11:32 today and we were promptly seated we waited for fifteen minutes and were never given any type of service. We activated the small kiosk on the table we waited 10 more minutes and still not server. All the time there was a server that was serving to the tables across and 2 tables behind us she didn't look at us and didn't acknowledge us I saw her frequently stepping out from the back to look over the area I was looking at her to see if I could catch her eye so she could help us. She would then quickly look away and check on the tables across and behind us still ignoring us. If this is how management trains wait staff I wonder what's going on in the kitchen!?!?!? read more

Besides the food being great and the servers being absolutely amazing and professional they are also honest and have a high level of dignity. My wife left her purse behind and we went home and didn't realize it was missing until an hour after we left. I went back and they had the purse in their safe. Not only did they recover the purse but nothing was missing because my wife had 1100 dollars in cash inside her purse and it was all there. 20 stars for this fantastic staff!!!! They could have easily said they didn't find anything. Very honorable! read more

Great food and drinks. Bartender Alicia was so attentive, funny and friendly. She did a great job with our drinks and making sure we were taken care of with the food we ordered. Definitely will be going back for fun, food and drinks. Almost gave me Pre-covid vibes with the service! read more

i just went into this location & at first everything was going smoothly . my waitress was hollie & she had a lot of tables so i understand getting side tracked but to the point where i've had my glass empty for 30 mins now , i haven't been asked if i need anything , no napkins , no refills , no simply checking up is unbelievable. since she was busy i asked another employee for refills to which hollie heard and said ' she doesn't do refills i do so she's not gonna do it i'll take care of it ' with a complete attitude . it completely killed me & parties moods . we waited for 15 mins after finishing our meals to receive the check . i asked her for some drinks to go & she brought me an empty cup to put my remaining strawberry lemonade which was half way done & a 1/4 cup full to put my remaining sprite instead of either just bringing an empty cup or filling up the cup completely . i find it very unprofessional from her behalf since she is working in the food service industry . i'm very disappointed. she was very rude & i did not have a good time . spoke to the manager on duty frank before i left to let him know the situation but it didn't seem like he cared or would do anything so i brought my complaint here because it was honestly ridiculous . read more

Great food and service. Haven't had a bad time here yet. Very nice when you can finish a plate and have a great conversation with the server. If your in the mood for a great steak and service I recommend outback read more

the food is usually very good, but went there at 4:30 last night. most of the tables were empty. had to wait 10 minutes for a table, but when we were seated we sat for 15 min and never served or even acknowledged. we walked out. not happy with their service. someone could have come by and said I will be with you in a minute. read more

This place is okay. Sometimes a side salad comes with croutons, sometimes it doesn't. Seems like I always have to ask for bread instead of it just being given like it used to. Came here on a busy night one time and chose to eat at the bar. Big mistake. There is not enough room to eat, I felt squished, and it was awkward having the waiter reach over me to put my plates down. Been here a few times and I feel like I need to find another place in the area for a good steak. read more

I have stopped at this location a few time on my way out of town. Service: The staff is always friendly and do a better then average job of taking care of the table. My drink was left empty for about 5mins. Food: This is the area that makes me give them a 3 star. The food is ok but it is not up to what I get at the Rancho Cucamonga location. My prime rib was over cooked and the house salad(s) all had different toppings . The Mac and cheese was super dry!! We only eat one bite. Location: it was clean and not very crowded. It was also 9:30 at night. Bathrooms are very clean. read more

Had such a good dinner last night!! I ordered the steak and lobster tail. Say what you want about Outback.. my friends said it was the McDonalds of steakhouses. The bread is amazing, the blooming onion was nice and crispy. They have Stella and 805 on draft. We had a party of four in a booth and we could easily sit 6 theyre so spacious. As soon as we sat we ordered appetizers from the kiosk. Very convenient. Everyone ordered something different, the filet, the ribeye, volcano shrimp plate and salads. Everyone enjoyed their meals. It wasnt very packed so parking was easy. They have a small parking lot in front of the restaurant. If that fills there is a huge mall parking lot with a crosswalk to Outback. read more

I called ahead to make a reservation for 24 for a softball team . told them i wanted inside which they said was ok . I got there early and wouldnt accommodate us inside . I had the entire group there and we had to leave . they didn't try to make it work just kept saying sorry nothing we can do . not sure how you operate that way. I've never seen such bad customer service read more

So the process of being seated is not the best, however, once you are assigned a waitress the service is good. I personally really love the blooming shrimp, and the Kingsland pasta. The ahi tuna is also really good and the salads are refreshing and great. read more

Was looking forward to a good dinner with my with my wife at Outback and from all the ads their menu it should have been. For appetizer we had the Lobster Scrimp plate, could not tell which was the lobster or the scrimp! And most of it was just pieces of batter. We ordered the Filet and lobster, and Faith got the Seafood Trio (with Crab Cakes) when we got our meals the crab cakes were tasteless not much crab not a good taste. The lobster on both our dishes were undercooked boarding raw, the Manager did replace the lobster but we received it at the end of our meal, better but still not well cooked. Overall a very disappointing meal and not worth the cost. read more

Manager was very rude. I used my AARP card, not the first time I use it here, and after the waitress took my card, she called the manager over to our table. He then proceeded to interrogate me on where I got the AARP card, and that I shouldn't have it. I explained to him that there's no age limit to when you can purchase it. They gave me the discount because my name matched the one on the AARP card but I did not appreciate having to explain myself to the waitress and the manager. read more
