We had the best piece of prime rib! It was a juicy, flavorful, tender, and generous cut of meat. Our dinner salads had a lot of lettuce core in them. Chicken & Shrimp pasta dish was delicious, and enough for two. Carrot cake was dry. Our server was terrific, and the hosts were engaging. read more

Excellent service and quick. As soon as I sat down the waiter was right there. Always had great service here. Really clean. The potato soup was to die for. I even ordered and extra bowl to go home. Plus I ordered the filet mignon it was so tasty and cooked to perfection. The lobster was also cooked perfectly. Austin was my waiter, he is a keeper. Made sure my food is good and I was happy. I didn't take any photos because I ate it right down quickly. Yummy I will be back This all for now!! read more

Three strikes...... Your Out!!! So Outback Steak House is one of my favorites. We live in Oracle so we don't have many options. Our favorite Outback closed so we have tried not one but THREE times to go to the one on Grant Road! The first time we drove down there without calling only to find out they had a leak and were closed down. The second time I googled and it said open...... only to find out they were only open for take out SO today I called and spoke to a live person who said yes the restaurant was open for inside dining until 10 pm. Well.... guess what!!??? We arrive and find out they are only open for patio seating. So we wait and no one came out so I peaked inside and there's not even a functioning bar!!! Sorry Outback third strike your OUT!!!! Just lost a long time customer!!! read more

Not impressed. The restaurant didn't seem busy when we walked in on a Friday night. It didn't smell good when we walked in. I had a bad feeling about this place. The blooming onion tasted good. The bread tasted good. The salad was "OK". Then my steak came to the table. The fries tasted freezer burned. My steak tasted poorly. It was over cooked. The flavor was not good. Very bland, dry, and peculiar in taste. I was not happy with my meal. The server was really kind and so were the greeters at the door. The steak just wasn't good. My wife said the same thing about her food. She said the best thing about the meal was her shrimps. read more

Just picked up a bowl of potato soup and it was three spoons of potato water. You would probably get better potato soup in turn of the century tenement housing. Man Outback has turned to straight shit. read more

I ordered a strip steak bone in medium from Uber Eats. My steak was not medium; it was medium well There was no hot pink center and no juiciness Preparers should realize that as a steak sits, it cooks some more! Not happy, and it was very expensive! read more

The food was good. We went in for the special $14.99. First we got the onion, the special was the hamburger fries and a drink and desert. We decided on steak. To be fair these were our decisions. We did get one meal to go because we had one at home. They graciously let us do that. It does say not for to go orders. Our bill was almost double. Everyone was happy and pleased. We will learn to read the fine print. It was very good. read more

Came here with family cause they'd never been to the Outback Steakhouse before. They ordered steaks, I ordered Baby back ribs. We ordered Bloomin Onion for appetizer. They enjoyed their steaks and potatoes. My ribs were not impressive at all, I had to dip the meat in bbq sauce just to make it palatable. The Bloomin Onion not so good either. I've also been to their location on Ina and for some reason the Ina location has better tasting food. Last time I came to this location was about 10 years ago because I was not impressed with their food, still not impressed and won't rush back anytime soon. read more

My dad and I came here for dinner after a failed attempt at another chain steakhouse. I called ahead and got on the waitlist, which was good because there was a wait on Saturday evening for dinner. We had to wait an addition 5 minutes when we got there, but once we were seated we waited another 10 for our server. They were busy so it was understandable. You could see all the employees hustling and helping each other out. I got a raspberry mule which I did not love; not sure what was raspberry about it. The food was delicious though! The bread for start was warm and tasty. The shrimp was less than exciting but the sauce it was served with saved it, and my steak was perfect. I would definitely return in the future. read more

What the heck happened to Outbacks food quality? Meal was awful. Bloomin onion was so overcooked it was not edible. Salad had the worst blue cheese dressing I have ever tasted. My husbands meal looked like it was cooked last week. Not to mention our server was rude. He was okay until you asked him for something Then he acted put out by the request. Will not eat here ever again read more

We have been to many Outback steakhouses in many cities but our hometown Outback takes the cake as the worst Outback we have ever visited. We been to this location twice and both time they have let us down. Service, Food and Ambience were terrible!! What up with sitting people near the service entrance?? All night all we could hear is the kitchen staff complaining about the customers. The food is awful! This latest visited we tried their 4 course meal. What a mistake. Waitstaff don't care what the customer wants or don't want, they bring out whatever. We asked for NO cheese or Onions, so what do they do??? They put that shit on everything!!! Cheese & Onions on the salad, Cheese & Onions in the soup .... You get the picture. The steak was horrible, found out why online after eating there this last time. Found this on some web page for rules at Outback. "If the customer wants a rare steak, inject 10 mililiters of cattle myoglobin and blood into the thickest part of the steak after cooking to give it a red appearance. If the customer wants a medium-rare steak, inject only 5 mililiters." The old saying "fool me once, shame on thee; fool me twice, shame on me" well there will not be a third time. We will taking our out of town guests to some other Tucson restaurant. read more

Haven't been to OB in a bit...the last time was an underwhelming experience so I was nervous about returning. Happened to hit happy hour (it's 7 days a week!) and had a blackberry martini. It was so refreshing and had a great flavor. I had two! Yelp check in gifted a free bloomin onion and it was perfect. Piping hot and cooked wonderfully. I ordered a NY strip with mashed potatoes and it did not disappoint. I couldn't stop eating it. I mean I over ate...and was miserable all evening but it was worth it! My side salad with ranch was excellent also. My wife ordered the ahi, a side salad, and Brussels sprouts. All of these were very tasty. Our server was attentive and the manager also stopped to check on our experience. I was pleased with that. I do have one thing that bothered us a bit while we were there. We sat in the bar area and had seen a server transition from her shift to the bar where she was obviously off duty, she removed her uniform top. She then sat and gossiped about other staff and was getting pretty loud at times. She and the bartender were flirting and he was being inappropriate with his comments. It was not fun to sit next to and listen but it was the end of our meal and we could thankfully leave. Maybe most don't care but to me seemed like a boundary issue and there were other customers to hear them. read more

I don't come on here and say this often... but DANNGGGG I absolutely love this place. Well one item in particular the toowoomba salmon.. I've ordered this particular meal a few times now for delivery and OMG not disappointed!! The food is always fresh, the meals hot and words cannot describe just how awesome this really is. Seriously my new favorite meal. Hands down. Good job outback, good job. read more

Went with a group of friends for a Birthday party on June 9 and the party's host wanted to cover $20 of every person's check. Our waiter (Joseph F) told her he couldn't do it with a card because he'd have to run it on each check, so she gave him $180 in cash. No one received the $20 discount on their check, and we all tipped him on top of it. Not to mention the lobster tail I ordered, was the smallest lobster tail I've ever seen. I used to go to Outback in CA and it was fun and the food was great, this was dark and creepy, and while my friends were fun, the atmosphere definitely was not. UPDATE: Outback management was incredibly responsive to my friend and returned her cash after a quick HR investigation and gave her the same amount back in additional gift cards. read more

Thank you, Bryan, for helping me make reservations last week for Mother's Day, today, for brunch. Came with five...our daughter and another couple...with whom we have been dining "in" [for the first six months of Covid] and "out" since December when we could find restaurants where we could dine in and regain our senses...of humor, friendship and more. Today was great at Outback...even tho crowded, we receive great service...and our menu selections, all different were great...so thank you very much... tom read more

Skip it, they serve food only on the uncovered patio in scorching hot sun. The slightest bit of wind will blow all that pollen onto you if it would help to close the patio as well to get what they need to do done they should do it and stop messing around. read more

The first time I went to the Outback Steakhouse, years ago I ordered a Steak dinner and it was good.  On  Wenesday June 12,  2023,  when I went to the Outback Steakhouse, I Ordered a Cobb salad and it was not at all appealing and the dedication was lacking.  There was not enough chicken, The eggs were unevenly diced and not easy to find and the rest of the vegetables were sparse.  For the price one would expect to have Romaine lettuce and spinach instead of cheap head lettuce.  The Blooming Onion was good. Their prices for a 6 oz steak were exorbitant and as bad as a Tourist Trap down in Tombstone.  I will not be going to the Outback Steakhouse ever again and would not recommend  this restaurant to anyone. read more

Went here for dinner after almost a decade of not going to Outback, given the other choices available (Texas Roadhouse, Logan's, Longhorn) with this "type" of restaurant. In summary, it is pricier than our regular go-to steakhouse and did not stand out as offering anything different. Honestly the 2 stars is because of price, selection and taste. We have "experienced better" I will start by saying that the service was solid - our server was very courteous and attentive, even though she had had four tables seated at almost the same time which had to be challenging. So in terms of service, 4 stars. The food seems pricey to me in comparison to their competitors for what you get. We ordered the onion blossom starter which ran $8 ($5 at TX Roadhouse), came out pretty quick and was good, but what fried food isn't? My husband ordered the top sirloin, 12 oz (again a few bucks more expensive than the competitor) and it came with a very skimpy salad and he ordered a mashed potato side. I did try a bite of his steak and it was cooked perfectly and was very flavorful. I ordered this new salad - chopped BBQ chicken. It was fantastic, except I had to order dressing because they had not tossed it with any as described on the menu. Probably won't return with Texas Roadhouse and Longhorn literally right down the street offering with more competitive pricing for what they give you. If I did return it would be to eat that awesome BBQ chicken salad again for lunch. Oh and we prefer the bread at the 'other' steakhouse! read more

Visiting the area for New Years. In a great area, close to where we are staying. The decor is very low key, nice ambience, the atmosphere is quiet. We were quoted a 15 minute wait but it only took about 5 minutes, which was a nice surprise. The waiter greeted us and that was about as nice as he got. We waited long enough to figure out our main course. I tried to order the main entree at the same time as the appetizer. The waiter got upset and told us when he would put all our food through to the kitchen. The next time he came back to the table, I asked if a particular drink was a part of happy hour, the waiter literally laughed out loud said no and walked away from the table. These two encounters put a damper on the rest of dinner. On a semi-brighter note the Aussie Sampler appetizer is delicious. The fried Mac and cheese in the Sampler is amazing! For dinner I order the tilapia with lump crap on top. It has a light peppery taste. A definite entree recommendation. Overall the food was delicious, the prices are a bit high, the atmosphere is quiet,...the service was horrible. It would be a 5-star rating if not for the awful attitude of our server. read more

The people that work there are awesome, splendid service and food , we like the bar for games...

Tonight our dinner experience was excellent! We had a gift card which is why we came. We were impressed with the service. We were greeted when we walked in and since we called ahead our table was ready. Zack our server gets 10 stars. He was friendly, offered suggestions and checked on us frequently. Way to go Zack!! Our dinners were cooked perfectly. I had the 6 oz filet and my husband had the surf n turf. Steaks cooked perfectly with delicious sides of sweet potatoes and blue cheese salads. We are happy we came tonight! read more

I would've liked to sit down and be an actual customer but instead we were looked at and laughed at by the serving staff standing around the bar. When we decided to leave we were graced with a very sincere and kind "Have a great night". An hour to close is cutting it but our intentions weren't to stay passed close. It's honestly just embarrassing for the staff to act in an informal manner. read more

Friendly and efficient service! Our Filet Mignons were cooked perfectly and very delicious. I chose a dinner salad and it was cold , crisp and fresh along with warm dark whole grain baguettes w/butter. My friend had the very tender asparagus that was delish. Desert was amazing! Ordered to go. One awesome carrot cake with cream cheese filling and one cake & brownie with ice cream and toppings. Delicious meal all wonderful service. Excellent dining experience!! Outback, thank you and keep up the great work!!! read more

Great dinners/ great service.. very upbeat!! Had salmon/ friend had steak and the appetizer was very fresh ahi.. The sides were all cooked well.. Possibly the rice a bit sticky.. otherwise a perfect evening.. will be back.. I believe our server was Randy.. she ruled!! read more

Not your top of the line first choice steak house but I always get good food and service at this location. Today as with most of my visits here I got the Filet Mignon and Lobster. The filet mignon is always a good cut here, tender and not fatty. The lobster isn't that big but it feeds my addiction for seafood for a little while. Also like it here because every third visit you get $20 off your meal. Service is generally good and friendly, nothing over the top but good. read more

Bad food and terrible service. Steak is gristly and the chicken is over cooked. Price is outrageous for what you get. Bread is good!

Very good service did not have to wait to be seated waitress was friendly and food was awesome. :)

First, i absolutely adored the food! I ordered the Peppered Ahi and the Grilled Halibut and both were AMAZING! The Ahi was perfectly seasoned and the garnish added an exquisite flavor. The Halibut was perfectly grilled and wasn't overcooked in the slightest (I opted for the grilled as opposed to the sear because I love the taste of food from a grill). My friends for appetizers got the nachos and the blooming onion and both were phenomenal. One of the things stopping me from giving this place a 5 is that the menu did not accurately describe what was being ordered. For example, none of us hd any idea the nachos came with bacon on it and one of my friends can't eat bacon (and same for their Potato Soup). However, all in all it was a good experience and I loved the food! read more

Surprisingly good. I hadn't been to Outback in about....20 years? It's just not a place that I frequent. I met my parents there for lunch and we ended up being pretty surprised. I'll say off the bat that it's understaffed for lunch. One waiter serving 10 tables doesn't really work, and a couple of mistakes were made. If you ever get slow service, look around to see how many tables the waiter is serving. Sometimes the slowness is due to a manager who is too cheap to hire another worker rather than the waiter being slow. That being said, the food was pretty good. We ended up ordering a lot of different things and most were hits. The Bloomin' Onion is still a great way to start your meal, plus the bread. I got the French Onion soup as I need to have that once every 5 years or so and it hit me that day. Really good overall, just what I was looking for, thick cheese, onions, bread. The side salads that came with the meal weren't spectacular, but they had a certain way of playing it safe that translated into a good taste. Hard to explain. Doesn't look great, but tastes good. Grandma really liked her potato soup. She also liked the Raspberry iced tea (after the waiter brought regular). It's like.....a really good museum of a great 90s steak house. They screwed up my order and brought me a carbless chicken/bacon/cheese thingy but that was OK because the calories of a chicken/bacon/cheese quesadilla were making me a bit worried with everything else. It tasted good, maybe something I could make myself, but whatever. I'm happy I saved the calories and the taste was good. Grandpa ordered the steak quesadilla and it was below average. Nothing special at all. That was probably the only thing we didn't like on the table. Not bad, but not nearly $14 worth of good. It makes you regret you ordered it when you see everyone else's food so it kinda sucked to be him. I think overall we got potato soup, French onion soup, a steak quesadilla, chicken with bacon and cheese thing, two side salads, a bloomin' onion, bread, and 3 non-alco drinks for $64. Not a bad price to walk away surprised. This company might be more successful if it branded each store as individuals rather than a chain. A chain store automatically has a strike against it. Give each location a unique name, "49er Steak House (or whatever)" and serve the same menu with some very small menu uniqueness. It's the only way you're going to survive. read more

Popped in for lunch today because my guy was craving a Bloomin' Onion. I hadn't been to Outback in years and was always a fan of theirs when I was living a healthier lifestyle and eating clean. Dinner was a petite steak, steamed veggies and sweet potato without all the butter and stuff cooked in to those items was amazing. We had a great server - Nestor. He was busy but never left us wanting for anything. The restaurant is clean and inviting. The food was average, sadly. Bread/butter - always delicious dark honey wheat bread. A great way to start a meal. Coconut shrimp - super tender and cooked perfectly. Not much coconut on our pieces which disappointed me. The Creole marmalade served alongside the shrimp is delicious. Bloomin' Onion - I expected more. You know when you have really good onion rings and they're kind of sweet and perfectly cooked. That's what I was expecting. What I got was an average tasting onion, overcooked a bit and lackluster. The southwestern flavored dipping sauce was pretty good with a little kick but what I did eat of the onion, I dipped in the leftover Creole marmalade. I will say that my guy liked the big ole onion though. Chicken tortilla soup - tasty and plenty of chicken in my bowl. I'd definitely eat this again. Certainly not "authentic" but still good. Just wish they had added some fresh avocado to it but then again, Outback isn't a Mexican restaurant. Side salad with blue cheese balsamic vingarette - Average size salad with average ingredients but the salad dressing was fantastic. I loved it! My guy had loaded baked potato soup and a Caesar salad. He said both were decent. I should probably have stuck with my old clean eating meal from days gone by but I'm a fatty now and I had to try a few new things (to me) on the menu. LOL read more

I had the sirloin steak with coconut shrimp and my friend had the Cobb salad with chicken. My steak was tender and flavorful as expected from outback. My margarita was also delicious. My date said he enjoyed his salad, even though I thought he should have gotten a steak since we were at outback. read more
