I was really impressed. I ordered takeout for myself and grand daughter. The food was excellent , perfectly cooked and placed in the containers so everything didn't get all jumbled together. Usually when you order take out the order is messed up somehow but not here. First time ordering takeout but definately not my last. Great job Outback in St. Clairsville, Ohio!!! read more

It was our second time at Outback, I ordered lemonade i was brought pink lemonade i know no big deal but what I order is what you or I should get. We said no bread 5 minutes later here's the bread no biggie. My dad ordered side salad since when does the restaurant put the dressing on your salad underneath everything then you mix it. French dressing should not be extra spicy yes I know it has some spicy but he couldn't eat it. I ordered the Outback burger plain tasteless no flavor not one seasoning period. I don't know but we were disappointed. read more

From the waitress to the steak. Top notch! Salmon was flavorful. Steak was cooked to perfection. Drinks never went dry.

I got catering here and it was amazing! It was a huge order and they did a great job with presentation. They even gave us bags of ice with our lemonade and iced tea. The steak and chicken were both very delicious. 10/10 would recommend and would 100% order catering here again! read more

Service was great 5/5 Posting a 3 for the food, specifically because of the amount of butter used in every single item and the cook on the steaks. I ordered the ribeye medium rare with grilled shrimp, baked sweet potato and broccoli (sounds on the healthier side for a steakhouse, right?). The sweet potato came out completely filled with a pool of butter, I scooped out as much as I could and it was still way over laden. Also the side of broccoli was completely doused with butter. My steak came out rare/pretty blue. My husband also ordered ribeye medium well and it came out rare. They did well re-firing and were super friendly about it. We also ordered the blooming onion because, well nostalgia. That dipping sauce is still so good to me. I forgot how big that thing is and we definitely over ordered with the generous portion that the steak dinner provided. Flavors of everything were fine, but the amount of butter was obscene. I actually felt ill after the meal, unfortunately. Lesson learned though (and the reason I'm writing this review, if you're going here and don't want to swim in a pool of butter, just request no added butter or butter on the side, something lol. read more

See all

I got broccoli a couple of weeks before this day, and there was dirt in it. Service was terrible, the servers were impolite and inconsiderate. The restaurant was dirty, and I suggest the health department come for you. read more

Food was right on time and hot. Great service. Friendly staff. Delicious Food!!!llllllllll

Food was amazing. Service was perfect. Host was very prompt, professional, and kind. Also had a manager that came by just to check on us to make sure we had a great experience. read more

Dining alone, I ate at the bar and I wish I'd gotten the bartender's name, because she was awesome! She was attentive and friendly, chatting with me about the city I was visiting from. The food was great, hot and fresh, and my iced tea never went below half empty. The rest of the restaurant was clean and well maintained. Overall it was a great experience. read more

Really good service, food was great, the people around were using inside voices. Ambiance was amazing, the waitress was really great.

Not a fan of chains, I must say-Outback is my favorite. The food is fantastic. The steaks are prepared to perfection. Not being an onion fan, I tried the mushrooms-WOWZA! Love their ranch dressing and even their croutons. I'm telling ya-for a mid-priced steakhouse-you cannot beat Outback! read more

After I parked to pick up my order my car battery went dead. I was amazed and so thankful Mgr. Mike, and a wonderful server jump started my car. The rib dinner I got was scrumptious. Thank you for your help guys. Talk about great customer service. I'll be back with heart felt gratitude. read more

Always good, but with the inflation caused by Washington NWO politicians, the portions are shrinking dramatically. It's good, like always, but kind of a rip... read more

Outback Steakhouse is always a good choice for great meats and sides. This location definitely holds true to those standards. Came here with my friend and her family for a casual lunch. Parking was easy and we were seated quickly. The waiter brought us some of their delicious brown bread, and I opted for one of their lunch combos (alice springs quesadilla with fries). While it was a little overpriced for the portion size, it was still quite good. Our server was very attentive and made several callbacks. Since all of us had water on this occasion, I can't comment on the quality of the drink offerings. All in all, Outback Steakhouse offers delicious food and good service, so long as you don't mind paying a little extra for it. Overall: 4.0 stars ------ Pros: - Excellent food and a variety of menu choices. - Comfortable seating and atmosphere. - Great service. - Plenty of easy parking. Cons: - Even lunch combos tend to be a little on the pricey side considering how small the portions are. A little disappointing. read more

Had a great steak here tonight, met the owner and had the most perfectly cooked medium steak I have ever had at an Outback!

Honestly folks, our server Cliff was fantastic. However, the dumb asses who are the hostess (male and female) were complete morons and as useless as .... There are tables open, I ask for a table and "...there are none available..." Food was good as usual. Now the idiots greeters were able to be on their phones but think, hell no read more

I had felt nervous about eating inside a restaurant during the pandemic, but we were on a road trip and needed to eat. Upon entering this restaurant, a seating hostess immediately took us to a table that was feet away from other tables. I think that our server's name was Cliff. He spent several minutes taking the order from another table that had several people, but he soon after took our order. He was very nice, and he promptly brought out our drinks, food, and refills. My filet mignon was cooked medium as I had requested. My husband enjoyed the taste of his chicken, and he said that the salad was one of his all-time favorites. read more

My girlfriend and I were at this location on sept 8th for an early dinner. We both ordered the 8 oz filet (medium) with mashed potatoes, she got rice as the side and I got a premium side of asparagus. The server seemed kind but not very attentive. Once our meals arrived they quite honestly looked unappetizing. The mashed potatoes were not bad and the steak, although they did not look like typical juicy fillets, were somewhat flavorful yet burnt on one side. The asparagus looked like it was pulled off the top of a compost pile and thrown in the microwave. With the ends hard and dark and rest mushy and discolored it was an absolutely horrible addition to the meal. The server was able to get them removed but still, not worth coming back to. read more

Outback Steakhouse - Part of the 8oz filet and asparagus (premium side) - Steakhouses Near Me - St. Clairsville, Ohio

Outback is definitely not as good as it used to be. $60+ spent in 2 dinners, 1 iced tea and one awful martini. I had a better meal at someplace local 2 nights before for $40. I got a large salad - bagged lettuce, 5 tiny grilled shrimp, my husband had chicken that was over done and the sides tasted like they were frozen then heated up. Even the bread is not as good as it used t be. To top it off, the server was not pleasant and acted like it was a bother to wait on us. Spend your money elsewhere. read more

Last night my wife and I went for a "date night." This Outback killed it!! The food was amazing, service was outstanding, and the manager was on his game. Other local restaurants need to come witness and learn from what they are doing here. Everyone on staff was upbeat, personable, and hustling. Harley was our server. She seemed like a veteran with years of experience. When we found out she was relatively new, we were floored. They are really setting the bar high here. read more

Our waitress was very rude! She didn't want to take the time to take orders properly and got an attitude when food was sent back. There was an older couple behind us and she was extremely rude to them as well as us. My steak was severely undercooked and when she took it back to get it fixed she didn't bring back the food that was on my plate so it sat and got cold and they threw my steak that was undercooked back on the grill and served it extremely over cooked. It's not hard to have manners when you work with the public. I've been in customer service for 15 years . Have manners and do better . read more

The only reason this isn't getting one star is because my waitress was awesome. The steak was absolutely terrible. I could tell as soon as he came out of the table that it wasn't going to be good, but I tried it anyway and unfortunately I was right. They really should get somebody in there that knows how to cook steak. My waitress was awesome, I paid for what I ate, and she took the price of the steak off my bill. read more

Outback Steakhouse - Bad steak - Steakhouses Near Me - St. Clairsville, Ohio

This was a second choice spot for dinner as the wait was too long at our first choice spot... Outback also had a long wait but at least they text you when your tables ready so you can wait in your car... The food was good except for the steak, which was at least 30% fat and grissle on both my daughter and I'd steak... Since Steakhouse is in the name, and this was almost a hundred dollar meal, I expect more... Save the trip and just go to a Texas Roadhouse where they do it better... read more

Pretty good to eat at. It can get slow, but I still like the food. I would go back later.

Really Outback...you know that no child is going to eat something so burnt that it is as black as the container it came in. read more

Outback Steakhouse - Steakhouses Near Me - St. Clairsville, Ohio

I ordered the Bloom'n burger which was very good. As well as the potato soup which was also very good. I order Aussie fries which come with the burger but the server gave me cheese fries. I did not say anything and ate them. I did notice our server was a little frazzled and forgetting things but I understand that right now restaurants are very understaffed so I gave her the benefit of the doubt. The reason for giving three stars is because my guests and I were a little disappointed by the desserts. We were expecting warm, gooey desserts instead they were very hard and cold. One of my guest's dessert was burned on the bottom. I ordered the butter cake and I was expecting a soft cake at room temperature but it was hard and you can tell it has been sitting in a cold refrigerator for a while. We thought it tasted good but we felt misled from the description. read more

I asked for well done on my steak and it came out medium well. But when it came back out, the manager stayed at our table until I checked my steak which was well done this time which impressed. Then i ordered dessert....The Salted caramel cookie skillet....part of the cookie was burnt and tasted burnt. The cookie was very hard as well. I hope my experience next time will be better.... read more

We arrived for dinner around 7:30 on Friday and the hostess said it would be about a twenty minute wait. She got our name and my phone number and said that it would text when our table was ready. We said okay and went outside to wait because there was no seating inside. In the meantime I got a text saying our check in was confirmed. It was a little chilly so we went and sat in the car to wait. All I'm going to say is, it's Saturday morning and I still never received a text message. read more

My husband and I just moved to wheeling, and were out doing some shopping. We stopped in around 5 Pm and we're quickly seated to a booth next to the bar. The place was dead so we expected quick service, but that is not what we got. Our waitress "Marissa" asked for our drink orders which was a sweet tea and a water with lemon. She returned with the drinks, and there was no lemon in the water so my husband asked her for some and she didn't answer him. She walked away and came back and slammed it on the table again not saying a word to us. She then went behind the bar to eat with 3 other employees, while we made eye contact with her multiple times thinking that would let her know we were ready to order. The manager was walking around, and even slowed down to hear my husband and I complaining to one another because we'd been waiting for ten minutes just to order while she was over there gossiping and eating. The manager kept walking and didn't acknowledge the issue, and decided to join the party! After about 15 minutes of waiting for her, and still no acknowledgement from anyone, we happily got up and left! read more

I ordered a blooming onion and wings. The blooming onion tasted burnt and the whole texture was like the dry outer skin. The wings were VERY dry and tasted. burnt also. Very disappointed read more

The reason I'm leaving a 2 star review is because for one I ordered a $30 steak and all of it was straight fat except maybe 2 bites. The baked potato was old and you could definitely taste that it wasn't fresh. Very disappointed and I don't think I'll ever go back. read more

This vegetarian probably would have rated a chain steakhouse a little higher had her order been right. Surprise, surprise. I was celebrating my first non-sick day in a week by shopping with my sister, when our parents texted to see if they should bring us food home from Outback, where they were eating. I brought up the menu on my phone and requested a sweet potato with honey butter and brown sugar. I also requested a side of asparagus. As a vegetarian, I takes what I can gets in Bumfrick, Ohio. When we all met back at the house, I dug right into my asparagus. I was surprised to see that these were baby asparagus stalks instead of the traditional large ones, but they were pretty flavorful, grilled just right with slightly crispy tips and those gorgeous black marks all over. Someone had a heavy hand with the salt, though, and I had to blot quite a bit off. My potato, though, was completely incorrect. Instead of a sweet potato, Outback gave me a regular potato. Instead of honey butter, Outback gave me sour cream. Instead of brown sugar, Outback gave me... nothing. I was really disappointed, as I was craving the sweet potato like mad, especially after eating nothing but cough drops, hot chocolate and broth for five days. Still, I was hungry and I like potatoes, so I made the best of it. It was fine. I mean, it was a potato. It had a nicely crisp skin and the inside was al dente (can non-pasta stuff be "al dente"? Because this was somewhere between soft and crisp.). The skin had a nice sheen of salt on the outside, but again, there was way, way too much salt. I didn't hate my meal by any means, but I was a little bummed by it. Especially for takeout, a restaurant should ensure that the order is correct. Granted, my parents maybe should have checked everything before leaving, but they were blissfully stuffed from their own dinner and had food-coma-brain, so I can't blame them. I'd call the restaurant for a make-do, but I'm leaving the area tomorrow, so ... eh. I just probably won't get food here again the next time I'm home. read more

Always have loved outback. Would recommend this place! Love there blooming onion. Love everything there.

Our experience here was so terrible, it's hard to decide how to even begin. Outback describes itself as a "steakhouse restaurant". It's not an incredibly expensive restaurant, but it's not inexpensive either. Based on this, you would expect a minimum level of service and performance. As we walked in, we were greeted by a table full of garbage -- plates with leftover food, dirty silverware, glasses with dirty silverware inside, dirty napkins, etc. I'm not talking about what you would see when a party has just finished eating and left the table. It is clear that the waiters had been using this table as a collection point for the leftovers from every other table. It was a completely disgusting scene and this is the very first thing you see as you approach the restaurant. Not to mention, the bar top running the edge of the front terrace was also full of dirty plates and dirty silverware. This should have been enough to clue us in, but we persisted. We asked for a table to be cleaned so we could sit down. They proceeded to remove the dirty items, but the cleaning included brushing all the crumbs right off the table onto the floor! In addition to the crumbs, they already had cardboard coasters strewn about the floor. To complete our dining ambiance, we had screaming kids on both sides of our table. I mean kids screaming at the top of their lungs, with their parents in outer space. If your kid screams at the top of his lungs while dining, perhaps it's not a good idea to take him to a "steakhouse restaurant" late at night. He might be better suited for a Happy Meal in the ballpit at McDonalds. Of course, Outback management chooses to the easiest course of action, which is to ignore the problem and avoid the uncomfortable conflict. By this time we were seated and had already ordered, so we tried to make the best of it; but, things did not get better. As we transitioned from appetizer, to main course, to dessert, not a single plate was removed from our table. Is it too much to ask that when you bring the main course you remove the appetizer plates? Similarly, when you bring the desserts, should you remove the plates from the main course? To top it all off, we were seated in the outside terrace tables and people were smoking. I mean, seriously? How about a little sign that says "No Smoking" so that the people eating can actually enjoy their food, instead of the second hand smoke? I suppose the common theme, like always is management. They are not training their staff. They are not establishing clear metrics and expectations based on the training. They are not taking ownership for living up to the standards that you would expect from this type of restaurant. For what they charge, there are certainly better dining experiences at other nearby establishments, which we will certainly be patronizing in the future. read more

I was reluctant to try this outback due to the bad reviews but once we looked at other steakhouse options in the area we decided that this was as good as the other choices. We were told that the wait was 30 minutes but the bar area is first come first serve so we chose a small booth in the bar and had no wait. I ordered a spicy Bloody Mary that was perfect in the taste! That said there was no garnish what so ever. Not even a lime wedge. Our waitress was fast and friendly. She was on top of our needs without being at the table every few minutes. My husband and I both ordered steaks and they were cooked exactly as requested. All the food we ordered was prepared as expected. I definitely don't get the reviews that expect a chain to deliver an upscale 5 star experience but this outback was clean and delivered exactly what we expected from them. A good meal at a decent price. read more

Server is excellent. Steak taste is ruined with hot pepper. It burnt my throat. Vegetables were hot peppered. Couldn't eat it. Vegetables and steak taste the same mother hot , so foods tasted th he same. Not wasting my $ there again. Rather pricey. read more

Came here for dinner with a colleague which made this my first trip to an Outback in years. We opted against a bloomin onion - fyi. I enjoyed the loaf of bread our server brought us, a sweet dark rye or pumpernickel variety. Also, the water was served with lemon slices, also a plus. My meal was underwhelming. I ordered a roasted filet in a port sauce. The meat tasted really mushy, too mushy even though I ordered it medium rare. The mushrooms in the sauce were overcooked, and the mashed potatoes were bland. The vegetables that came as a side were cut way large, but why? Couldn't the chef take a few extra seconds and slice them smaller? I think it would have helped the presentation of the food. The server was nice and the manager stopped by to check on us but otherwise, the food was MEH. read more

Decided to stop in here for dinner while visiting from out of town. Exceptional service and delicious food. Stephanie our server didn't miss a beat and went the extra mile catering to my dietary preferences. Highly recommend! read more
