I had the Aussie 3 course meal for $14.99 and it was excellent! Our first time here is years and we were pleasantly surprised. Yummy shrimp, baked potato, salad and cheesecake for dessert. A good value. And the service was outstanding. Hubby had the ribeye sandwich, served french dip style and it was also very good. Give it a try. We like late lunch and this is the perfect time to visit as it's not so crowded. read more

The food the service horrible! It had been a very long time since I have been to an Outback. I don't think we will be coming back to this place at all. read more

I haven't been to n Outback since moving here two years ago. We thought we'd give it a shot since we enjoyed it in SD. Our waiter Daniel was pretty much the highlight of this visit, if that tells you anything. We ordered the Ahi tuna for an appetizer - and that was delicious! But then we decided to try the new Prime Rib Sandwich - splitting the sandwich between us. But then We also ordered two side salads....not knowing that a small salad costs $6.99 EACH! (Ridiculously expensive) But whatever you do.....do NOT order the grissle sandwich! It was by far the worst steak sandwich I've ever had. We both took one bite and meat going into each tooth. Tasted like steak flavored chewing gum. AWFUL. So, overpriced side salads, and a sandwich we couldn't even eat....NOT GOOD! Sorry, no pics since it wasn't even worth wasting my time! read more

We arrived with a reservation we thought, but they didn't have it. Rather than make a deal of it Maureen took our name and had us seated within 10 min of our reservation time on Valentine's Day. She was gracious and kind. Then Chris was our server and he was also wonderful and our food was outstanding. Tyler was the manager and was outstanding as well and kept everything running well. Just a great holiday for us. Thank you so much.. read more

I will always love outback. It's consistently good. You know what you are going to get and they do cook a steak well. Coconut shrimp still remain a favorite as the sirloin. I'm still terribly bummed they took the Alaskan king crabs legs off the menu. It was my son and mines go to! Service is always good . read more

Good Food, great service and pleasant surroundings. Lunch with a low price point. Quick and courteous personal.

We were seated in less than 10 minutes. Ribeye steak cooked as requested, with delicious baked potato and salad. Octoberfest beer... all good! Who ever has room for desert? read more

This place and food were an absolute disaster. This place needs renovation badly - it was smelly and dingy. The boot was moving badly. Waiter - older blond lady ( 22 Feb @ 02:00 pm ) was far from being friendly and attentive. We ordered soup, bloomin' onion, and a side of strawberry salad for a starter. We ask the waiter twice to please bring a starter first, and a main dish later. The soup - broccoli cheddar - was almost cold, and so was the bloomin' onion which was not only cold but also oily and extremely salty. The strawberry side salad barely covered the bottom of the dish. The main dish came Sirloin & Alice Spring Chicken ( $28.99 ) - the baked potato was old and cold, there was almost no topping on the potato, steak, and chicken were cold. The chicken was covered with a cheese crust, cheese got crusty because it was cheap quality cheese. I am attaching pictures. It was the worst ever " food". The waiter never asked if everything is ok, she probably knew that she is serving unacceptable quality dishes. The only reason why I did not give everything back and walked away from this place was my guest. I was there with my friend from Sydney, Australia. Nobody at this place greeted him or even acknowledged his presence. I was so ashamed of the service, this place, and its food. But because of my Australian guest, I kept everything to myself. It was the first and last time I entered this ambiance. read more

This review pertains to the Outback on Grand Ave, next to Texas Roadhouse. Normally, my wife and I are not fans of Outback. Having said that, this establishment is apparently under new management. And what a difference that has made. We dined there with friends last night. The service was outstanding, with a delightful server, Tiffany, paying close attention to our experience. She was efficient, personable, friendly, playful, quick witted, and a joy to have attending to us. The food was - amazingly good. It was a simple meal - potato, ribs, prime rib and what turned out to be a pretty decent wine. The food was great and made us rethink our previously negative attitude. The ambience was low key, and a welcome change from the freneticism of the Texas Roadhouse neighbor. I think we will return. read more

Fast friendly service! Great service. Highly recommend this location for your favorite foods it's a great haunt enjoy responsibly lol! read more

We had a fantastic dinner at this restaurant, had a promotion for a free blooming onion, we saw most everyone getting one, I had the sirloin cooked medium with coconut shrimp, wife had sirloin with shrimp skewers, also had the pleasure of being served by STEPHANIE S, very nice young lady read more

I always have a great steak at Outback. I love the steak seasoning. Great service and atmosphere.

Fast service even on a busy Thursday night! The waitlist was about 25 minutes. They got us in at 20 minutes. They texted us when our table was open. Great Check-in Special- Free Bloomin' Onion appetizer worth $10. We showed it to our waiter when we first sat down. The app arrived even before we placed our order. The sauce you dip in is delish! We also couldn't get enough of the fresh baked bread with butter! They were hospitable and split our salad and steak. The House Salad came with a delicious Ranch dressing. The French Onion soup was made with a tasty broth. The crouton has Swiss cheese baked over the ramekin. They split the loaded potato and forgot to leave out the sour cream, so they gave a whole baked potato and a half. The fries were crunchy and well seasoned. Our steaks were medium rare and delicious. We enjoyed our visit! read more

I had dinner there with friends. My partner and I ordered the steakhouse salad. I cannot remember when I've had a more disgusting salad. While the menu described many delicious things that should have been in it, none of it had a recognizable presence. The lettuce looked like the leftover lettuce from the hamburgers. The onion bloom we had to start the evening was cooked to a crisp. It was not a good showing for Outback Steakhouse. read more

It was just alright nothing to brag about. I miss "pre-covid" service. It took forever to get my margarita. The waitress made a point of asking if we wanted the rim lined with sugar and we said yes. Then the margarita arrived with no sugar on the rim. The manager came and made it right and remade it. Then I had to wait for a bottle of A.1. that kept wanting to give me these little cups with A.1. In it. ‍ Then leaving took almost as long as it took it eat. First we had to wait for the check and then wait for take out boxes then wait to get a bag to put the boxes in. read more

It's been a while sense I been here. The steaks have been hit or miss. But this Thursday dinner had to be the worst serves ever. I did notice that Chris our waiter was busy. But he keep forgetting our Tasmanian chili, after we asked three times ?? The steak my wife got was amazing. But had a huge amount of fat. Like 4 oz of fat??? So besides a few hiccups in our service I would say the food wasn't bad. Michelle, the manager was amazing and made sure we had some Tasmanian chili to take home and a Discount on the very fatty steak,, well done to the manager. read more

Outback Steakhouse - Fatty ribeye steak - Steakhouses Near Me - Surprise, Arizona

Service was fine, but appetizer before finished without asking if we wanted boxed. Lunches were $12+. Called ahead and asked if we could order from dinner menu at noon. Even stated wanted prime rib and told sure no problem. Arrived and told no prime rib til after 2pm. Husband ended up ordering prime rib sandwich. Told yesterday's prime rib and when arrived was the size of a slider and only one. Another couple ordered grilled chicken and maybe 3oz size. Burned twice at 2 locations. They won't get a 3rd chance. Sad because used to be one of our favorite restaurants ftyears. read more

Tiffany was our server at the Surprise location this afternoon. She was excellent. Answered all our questions and brought a sample of sauce for the Hot Blooming Shrimp so I could try it. She mentioned it was one of her favorites. She was absolutely right, it was wonderful birthday meal for me. Hubby had the Kingsland Pasta and he raved about it. The Tim sundae topped everything off perfectly. Tiffany checked on us to make sure our needs were met and delivered refills on drinks without our asking. Could not possibly ask for a better experienc read more

Service was good. It was packed on a Sunday night but only waited 20 mins for a party of 5 which was great. Food was pretty good. We had a good time. read more

The waitress are super nice and polite. I'm sure they care about the satisfaction of the guests and they make you feel comfortable. The place is clean and wide. Environment is peaceful and relaxing. But the food is bad. And expensive (worst combination ever). Chefs aren't careful about the orders. I asked for a medium term Rib Eye steak and Cheesy French Fries. I got a Well Done hard to chew steak and overcooked almost burn fries with cold rigid cheese on them. The best thing on the plate was the broccoli, and I fruchin hate vegetables. This place is expensive but I decided to treat myself after a 2 long hardworking weeks where I kept my body functioning with hot pockets and Dr. Pepper in a daily basis. The flavor of the food was not unpleasant at all but I really regret paying 40 dollars for something cooked totally different from what I asked. Cook Term in beef is super important, and Steak restaurants are supposed to be careful with that. I'm just frustrated. I'm not sure if I'll be going there for a second round. read more

Not the best experience I had there. Maybe it was the tension from the waiter that irritated me the most. He appeared as if he didn't want to be there. Ok, let's talk about the food now. I ordered pasta with pieces of ribeye and shrimp. It was awful because the pasta was overcooked. I ordered a cocktail and I had to ask another waiter to get it for me because my server wasn't around. I think I'm done with Outback in general. read more

Wow it has been a long time since we ate here! I like the call ahead seating they offer. We took advantage of it meeting some friends here for dinner. I like how quiet it was. Nice music playing in the background, but we could still enjoy a nice conversation. Hubby tried the burger and fries which he enjoyed. I had the 6 ounce sirloin with fries and broccoli.Our girls each had chicken and steak plates with broccoli. Everything was delicious. Our steaks which were seasoned only with salt and pepper only were a bit salty. Our friends had an old combo plate they used to have on the menu and still made it happen though it had been gone for years Our! So cool. It was ribs, chicken bread and a side. They enjoyed their meals and their wedge salads. They really make great tasting sides. Our waitress Stephanie was attentive, sweet and kept our drinks refilled. I think next visit our girls will be eating an adult meal rather than the kid's plates. They sure can pack it in! Pleasant evening! read more

Tonight we celebrated 18 years of marriage! I can't believe it either ha ha definitely feels like yesterday. It's not every day we get a date night, but tonight we went out to celebrate. It's been forever since we've been to an Outback Steakhouse. We were surprised to walk right in and get a table, but we arrived just in time because a rush soon followed. Our server was great and our meals were delicious. While the bread they bring seems to have shrunk drastically over the years, it was still warm and delicious. Our side salads were fresh and crispy veggies were great. I ordered the filet with lobster and my husband the ribeye and grilled shrimp, both with baked potatoes. Both of our steaks came out grilled to our liking, no need for steak sauce or anything. The location is clean and bright. No pictures/phones tonight just enjoying each other's company. read more

Called and got an oversees call center (which is never great) got told I couldn't get extra cheese on a half order so I got a full order with layered extra cheese. The top had very little crunchy dried up cheese and the bottom was absent of any cheese. Very bad experience, will be telling people not to go here. read more

I would give three stars because of one thing: Time. It took a long time to get seated in a 1/2 empty restaurant and it took a longer time to get our drink order. Other than that. Food was ok but I just don't prefer these types of chains. I feel like they are too expensive for what you get. One mistake happened that could have been pretty costly but the manager took care of it without even the slightest protest. And that's why 4 Stars. read more

Outback Steakhouse - Queensland Chicken & Shrimp Pasta. (Burnt) - Steakhouses Near Me - Surprise, Arizona

Outback used to be a Go To place. My wife and I used to get a prime rib split that and order a side salad. WELL I not sure what they tried to serve us in Surprise but it did not look like prime. First their was no fat which helps flavor and makes the meat tender. I wish I would have taken a picture it's looked like it came out of a frozen plastic package. The cut was perfectly uniform in dimensions and was not freshly cut at the restaurant leaving no juice on the plate. We summoned the manager as the meat was Too tough to eat. Outback did not charge for the meal and both of us will never darken an Outback door ever again. This is not exclusive to the Surprise area as we finally made the same decision before we left Washington and moved to,Surprise years ago. Outback quality is a joke and not worth your time or effort to give them a try. read more

Was so very disappointed in our visit to Outback Steak house last night. It was our 47th anniversary so wanted to do something special. They have been advertising on TV a 3 course meal for $16.99. Shows steak baked potato shrimp salad. And cheese cake. Well.........when you go to order The $16.99 versions, no steak! Burger, chicken and something else. If you want steak you order a 6 ounce for an added $6.00. 9 ounce steak $9.00 more, Shrimp $4.00 more. Hubby ordered the 9 ounce med rare. Arrived burnt on one side and almost well done. He ask for steak sauce, had to ask three times before getting it. I had coconut shrimp. Way over breaded and cooked. I have been cooking for years and have NEVER baked a potato that once it cooled was harder than super man's knee cap. We brought our left overs home. Middle of the night I was hit with diarrhea lasting the rest of the night and AM. Hubby was hit with same thing early AM lasting for several hours Highly disappointed all the way around. Will not be going back. Will not recommend to anyone. read more

My niece ordered delivery from Outback on April 14th, 2023. We got food that wasn't ours along with some of our order. My meal was not great, but I can live with that. What really got me was the food poisoning. I got sick during the night and spent the next day at the ER with food poisoning. Looks like someone at this place didn't wash their hands after using the restroom and then touched my food. We both got different meals, and I got sick, my niece did not. Consequently, I am still off work, on Flagyl for this and will have the copay for my ER visit. I don't know if I should reach out to Outback or not to let them know. Not that I expect any compensation, but I really don't want this to happen to anyone else. Definitely do not recommend. read more

Sheesh, "Outback" the memory of when they first opened and were all the rage mid 80's or 90's maybe? The first to do the Blooming Onion in style I suppose. lol. That is all one heard about back then. That darn yummy , heart attacking, inducing bloom and the yummy sauce. Okay I want one now. Ha! I am sure we all have heard of Outback if not, it is a chain, Australian steakhouse. The food is pretty good for a chain and the price set. I had forgotten they existed since I try to eat local and limit pure meat intake. We stopped by on the way back from Wickenburg since we were starving. It was the first place we saw so zoomed into the parking lot, ravished. The place is okay and the lunch specials are shockingly really good. I might go back to try the Prime Rib sandwich lunch. Today I got the Shrimp on the Barbie lunch and chose the side salad option. It was a perfect size meal for lunch. The price was really outstanding for the food I got and in the times of an 11 dollar fast food meal. One can sit down relax and get the yummy bread they serve first. Service was a tad slow at times for a not too busy restaurant but not the worst. It was good but not great. However, they tend to be a place I never felt was very fast nor fawny all over you like. It is what it is. Solid three stars and good place to go for lunch if you are a smaller to mid size eater. read more

Very pricey and terrible customer service. It was our first time trying this place and was very disappointed. I ordered the shrimp and steak on Alfredo and the steak was so over cooked I could barely chew them (I wanted medium). The Alfredo was not good. You could probably cook a better Alfredo with prego sauce.My husband got the steak with shrimp and he got 4 tiny pcs of shrimp. What really did it for us was the customer service. Our waiter was so terrible, never refilled our drinks, didn't check in on us. I had to ask 3x for my daughter's booster seat and he seems to avoid making eye contact when passing our table to avoid being called. Will not come back again. read more

Honestly, some of the worst service I've had. I sent my steak back twice for being raw. We got no empathy from our waitress Landy. All of our food was cold! I wasn't going to leave a review but now I also have food poisoning. So not only did I have to spend 124 dollars on dinner that was terrible I have to miss work. Thanks guys! Top notch restaurant. read more

Generally speaking, the ambience, service, and food were above average as one would expect. With one exception. It was my 65th birthday, and I specifically chose OBSH (over the other steakhouses in Surprise, AZ), because it offered prime rib. When the rare-cooked cut arrived, I noticed that the dark, dry-aged outer layer hadn't been trimmed away. A routine prime cut preparation procedure done by experienced chefs. Just passing this tip on so your chefs understand how important it is for an optimal dining experience for your customers. read more

My wife and I both ordered the 12oz. ribeye and shrimp on the barbie with wedge salad and asparagus. She had hot and I had iced tea at $4 each. The shrimp consisted of 4 small nicely seasoned shrimp, the wedge salad (a premium side) didn't have much blue cheese crumbles (maybe a teaspoon), the asparagus (another premium side) consisted of 5 stalks with the woody ends intact. Now, the steaks: Hers was mediocre at best, not at all well seasoned. Mine was an awful gristled mess! We both ordered medium rare, so they weren't spoiled by over-cooking. I complained to the waitress that I couldn't even cut it and she immediately ordered a replacement. Unfortunately, the replacement was mediocre and pretty disappointing as well. To add to our disappointment we were never offered refills on our drinks and the bill was $93. Now we remember why we haven't eaten here in several years. We'll never return! read more

Steak,shrimp,ribs, lobster and blooming onions. I feel like I almost sometime how good outback steakhouse is. it's getting five stars because who doesn't love steak? I love the pumpernickel bread so fluffy butter. the amazing house salad probably one of the best house salad in the food chain industry. I always get the sirloin and shrimp combo that is probably my go to dish for a long time now. Kids menu pretty basic just like any other restaurant my kids get the same thing cheeseburger mac & cheese fruit pretty basic. Super great tip right now if you check in on yelp you get a free blooming onion!!!! read more

Very good, quite for lunch. No rush! The staff was friendly and food came out quick. Had the coconut shrimp and salad it was hot and cold respectively. Even bumped into a friend. Nice place. Will be back Update on 06/27/19 last time good came out in a reasonable time, today way to long being it was off the lunch menu. Server friendly but very inattentive, it wasn't busy! Had to take my previous rating down a star. No evidence of a manager? read more

Pricey, yet the food was unseasoned and very bland. Also, the service is terrible. I was sitting in my car for almost 15 minutes, baking in the 115 degree weather simply because they forgot to bring the food out. If you want great food and great service then it's probably better to just walk 30 seconds next door to Texas Roadhouse. read more
