I love Outback Steakhouse, not so much for steaks but for their Alice Springs Chicken, their Coconut Shrimp, their Chili, their Caesar salads, their Chocolate Thunder from Down Under and some many other things. Their Prime rib is usually pretty good! I called in an order and drove up to the door and the gentleman was wonderful! read more

Outback Steakhouse - Steakhouses Near Me - Visalia, California

Everything was excellent. The restaurant had a large seating area including a full bar that was playing FIFA. Menu explains all the different cuts of steak which was helpful. Food was excellent. The steak cooked perfectly and the fries were the best I've had in a while. Best part was our waiter Elijah. He was friendly, fast and knowledgeable about menu. From start to end he made the dining experience memorable. Great job . read more

We purchased the Chicken on the Barbie based off the picture that was advertised. It came with two sides. We ordered the mashed potatoes and the Mac&Cheese. When we got the dinner, after paying almost $40 dollars, not including the delivery fees, we were so mad. Not only did Outback not send the Mac&Cheese, but the tiny side of mashed potatoes wouldn't feed a toddler. And don't get me started on how the chicken looked. Thier pictures grossly misrepresent what they actually provide. The picture I'm sending is after we had to add BBQ sauce to the chicken because it was so dry and burnt. But, I guess the stale loaf of bread they sent was supposed to clean that up. This is the second time Outback has messed up our order. We thought it was a fluke the first time, but they proved us wrong this time. We will never go there or order food from there again. read more

Came on a Thursday during dinner hour. Surprisingly, there was no wait. Restaurant was clean. We were immediately seated. Our waitress was quick and checked in every so often but not enough to feel rushed. Food temperature was excellent and most of all, food was delicious. I had not been at this restaurant in 5+ years so I was impressed. read more

Once again had the opportunity to visit Outback Steakhouse in Visalia for Father's Day. Although busy we were sat fairly quickly as we had called ahead and set up through their reservation process. Truly was a pleasant experience with a great relaxed atmosphere. Our drink order was quickly taken and we were served their specialty bread as awaited our orders. The manager stopped by as he was visiting all the tables and wished us a Happy Father's Day and left a little token of their appreciation for our next visit. Once again the food was to die for. Their Aussie 3-Course Meal is so affordable and has various options at three low prices. Once again I enjoyed a mouthwatering Bloomin' Burger with their Baked Potato Soup. My wife had the half rack of ribs so tasty and as mentioned before cooked so perfect the meat fell away from the bones. Their cheesecake is to die for. Service was impeccable as always. Honestly have been here about maybe four or five times but my great experiences keeps bringing me back. read more

Not the best experience. When someone brings out your food other than your server, that tells me my server was too preoccupied to serve it himself & that my plate had been sitting up there awhile. So when the server comes as someone else is serving me, like trying to save a play--I'm immediately dissatisfied. My mashed potatoes were cold, the Blooming onions were not so fresh, and the steak tasted like Liver. The only fresh part was my Asparagus. The Dragon Fruit drink, I didn't finish. That was a waste of $11. I knew I should have stuck with Iced Tea. Then it start to get busier & my check was nowhere to be found. I went to the restroom & on the way back my server asked if I wanted to pay for my check at the waiters station. Yep, because I want to get the heck outta here pronto. I bet he only noticed because I left the table & probably thought I walked out without paying for poor food service & quality. I'm staying clear of this place for a while. Only went because it's 6x the miles on my card. I felt like I wasted my time, my efforts, & my money today. read more

Gave this chain a try during the busy holiday season. Walked in for lunch and it was not busy at all but the wait was 15 or so minutes. Inside is quaint and lovely but I noticed zero holiday decor. Bah humbug! The server was attentive but the food took forever. Good thing they give you a complimentary bread starter. I noticed a large party of 12 a mix of children and adults all get their food from steaks to pasta and it looked great. After they left I walked by to go to the restroom and most of the food was left on the plate. I mean like one bite out of a steak and just left there. Sad and shocking waste of food but when I got my chicken I knew why. We waited forever for soup, salad and chicken and all of it was underwhelming. The chicken was encased in melted cheese. My sweet potato side was okay but the skin was hard and rubbery. I really didn't taste the honey butter. The potato soup was watery and had no flavor. I realize now why there was an empty restaurant during a busy holiday week. read more

It was almost empty and took a long time to get seated. Also took a super long time to get drinks and food.

Honestly, I haven't been back here quite some time, but I was craving some steak and a quiet place to eat. I was not disappointed. The service was excellent. My steak was delicious and the potato was perfect. The only complaint I have is that the blooming onion was a bit too oily other than that. I will definitely be back. read more

I'll start with the mozzarella sticks that were not sticks. They were flat breaded pieces of cheese. They tasted gross. I took one bite and left the rest. Waste of money. The chocolate thunder (brownie with vanilla ice cream and whipped cream) came out with a scoop of whipped cream on top that looked like ice cream. I told our server that they forgot the ice cream because this is just whipped cream on top of the brownie and he said, " oh yeah they told me we don't have ice cream". He apologized and I told him "I wish I would've known, I wouldn't have ordered it" he said sorry again. Didn't offer a refund or even a discount. Got charged full price even though we only received half of the dessert. Payed $11.99 for a brownie with a scoop of whipped cream and no ice cream. So if the server is wondering why he got no tip it's because we got charged for the ice cream we didn't get. Sad part is we weren't going to be told if we didn't ask. They made the whipped cream look like a scoop of ice cream. The crispy chicken salad was good but the chicken was not crispy. Asparagus was soggy. read more

Now Not only do they have very little prime rib available They have now resorted to We don't even have prime rib And dont let the staff tell you otherwise Apparently its a new policy of this restaurant Good luck read more

Steak was great and cooked as requested with NO wait on a Saturday night! Our waiter was covering the bar which had really good Tequila choices and made sure we had everything we needed, forsure making the Visalia location a new go to read more

Walked in and walked out 5 mins later, due to not seeing a single server or hostess, there was a large party previously there and we did not see them walk out but during our time waiting never saw someone clean it. Why would I want to eat somewhere where the staff has no care for cleanliness. read more

Food was ok. We sat at the bar and waited and waited for the bartender to get us our beers because she was waiting tables. Why have a bar without a dedicated bartender? Poor management decisions read more

My food was great! My dad did not like his fried boomin chicken? We thought it was going to be peices of chicken not one chicken breast. The flavor didn't taste well. We got the Aussie 3 course meal. Ended it with a chocolate brownie ice cream for my dad and he loved that the most and the complimentary bread. read more

I wouldn't recommend going to Outback in Visalia because the food was unimpressive. I ordered a strawberry lemonade--the simplest drink at any restaurant--and it tasted like water with a lemon slice and a few strawberry slices. I had to order another drink because it tasted like water. The 13 oz ribeye wasn't flavorful and was mainly fat. I had ordered a side of a loaded baked potato and broccoli, the baked potato wasn't filled with toppings, they were really light on the toppings. However, their waiting staff was kind but apart from this, it wasn't a restaurant I'd go back to. read more

Horrible service and every time we tried to get someone attention we were ignored. No drinks and they never brought my steak sauce. Never coming to this Outback again read more

This place deserves a 0 stars we got there and never even took our drink order the servers kept skipping us. They seen us, but never asked if we needed anything so we ended up walking out without even even drinking a sip of water nothing.super disappointed!!! Never going back to this place for sure!!! not professional at all!!! read more

Most Beautiful and stylish Outback Steakhouse I've been in. Our waitress gave flawless service. Ribeye was cooked a perfect medium. Wedge salad was delicious as well. My Husband enjoyed the lobster & Mac n cheese. From the moment we walked in, even the host/hostess was very attentive during our entire visit. Needless to say, I'm Impressed and will definitely be back for more great food and overall experience. :) read more

A restaurant I wouldn't recommend is Outback Steakhouse. The bread that is brought out while ordering was quite dry and the butter had little flavor. The food portions are definitely on the smaller side. The quality of other steakhouses is surely better. read more

The food was absolutely the worst. I have only been to Outback on the east coast but this location was terrible. Never again we all left feeling nauseous from the food. read more

Gave outback another try and it was my mistake in doing so. First of all it took for ever to be seared , and the place was empty. Took for ever just to get drinks and the place was empty. Took for ever for our waitress to finally take our order. And the place was empty. Finally food came and steaks were not cooked properly looked like the were made in a frying pan and baked potato looked just thrown together. Very disappointed. Again . Won't ever be going back. I believe that's why the place was empty. $130 down the drain. Thanks Outback. You used to be a great spot. read more

Not sure why this place has a 3 star. My husband and I loveddd it here ! staff was very kind and attentive. they were training new staff and still kept up with our food. we got complimentary bread as well as lemon water to start us off. We definitely enjoyed our food as you can tell bahaha. reasonable prices and very quick service even with a large party there! very cozy inside and dim lighting. tv at the bar and low music playing as well. definitely a date spot or just a nice dinner ! read more

Went in with my husband on Sunday 09-22-24 at about noon. We were seated promptly as there were only a few other couples/groups. The restaurant and the bathrooms were spotlessly clean. The hostess was very pleasant and the server Elijah was very friendly and attentive. Placed our order, I ordered the New reef and beef platter! With filet medium rare and it came with shrimp and scallops. And my husband ordered the sirloin and Alice springs chicken combo, and a while later I'd say about 15 minutes after placing our order our server came back to our table and brought it to my attention that the kitchen had informed him they were out of scallops and asked if I would be ok with a double order of shrimp, which I said yes to. Another 15 minutes later, our food arrived, I couldn't help but to chuckle. The beef and reef platter was supposed to have filet mignon and I was served what appears to be sirloin. And the shrimp that was doubled up on, while technically piece accurate, were the smallest shrimp for an entree I'd ever seen. I ordered the baked potato with everything, and my other side I upgraded to the Tasmanian chili. While everything had great flavor, minus the shrimp, they were very watery and some had a little too much char on one side, I couldn't believe my meal was $38.99. (Before the chili upgrade). My husband enjoyed his meal but wasn't too happy with the Mac and cheese. We were happy with everything else just kind of dumbfounded that two doors over there's a "US chef store" (restaurant supply) that they could have purchased scallops at or at least had made clear to 86 scallops at the beginning of service. It's really irritating that I didn't even get the cut of steak that was offered with the item, nationally, and had to pay that much money for. read more

We had an early dinner this afternoon at the Visalia Outback! The food here was amazing! Our waitress was Destiny and she did a fantastic job of serving both of us today! She went above and beyond with our meal! We sat in the bar area and had the big screen to watch while we ate! I recommend that area if want to watch sports like I do! The breaded mushrooms appetizers with dipping sauces are a must here along with the blooming onions! My wife did the salmon and rice while I did the ribeye steak with loaded mash potatoes and grilled shrimp! Yummy! The portions were so big we took home enough food to have another dinner for tomorrow! This place is great! read more

The waitress was excellent. The food was great and the atmosphere was comfortable. Passing through, we will be back.

Had a marvelous dinner and Elijah our server was extremely attentive to detail and so helpful. The ambience was one of the nicest I've seen for Outback Steakhouse. Wish our San Diego county ones were this nice I would actually go there. Great value! read more

The food was really good. But they took really long to sit us down, when no one was there! They also always have trouble with their machine when it comes to paying. Slow workers/service. Nice workers too but they gotta hustle especially when no one is there. Also not a good spot to be there just not noticeable. read more

Food is trash. Way better options in Visalia and I'm definitely not going back. Services were good tho

Don't waste your time and money here!!! It took 15 minutes to get a menu then another 20 for someone to ask us for drinks we sat in front of restaurant while employees walked by finally we where asked to order, 45 minutes later we received our appetizer and my drink was empty this whole time , then to find out only half our order was ready, 20 minutes still waiting on rest of order , finally just walked out , if I am paying a premium price at a restaurant I believe I should get premium service not horrible service read more

I have always loved outback eating here many times as today was my birthday and outback was my go to place the simple strawberry lemonade at $7.00 a drink was very lacking not even enough ice to make it cold don't know why I thought it came with refills but that's my fault got the blooming onion it was as always excellent the 2 sirloin dinner was $54.98 the bigger meal it took almost a hour to get them so most of the blooming onion was gone the salads that came before the steaks maybe had 3-4 bites taken and was very disappointed in all the wilted lettuce the steak looked real pretty cooked perfect except the famous outback seasoning was so spicy from pepper we maybe had 2-3 bites I sneezed all the way home 40 miles away if I could say customer service was the worst I understand if they are busy but when I switched over 2 water I could not even get a refill with out hitting up 3 employees the baked potato was good tho so whoppie will not be going back anytime soon only tipped $10 and she didn't deserve that.The young kid cleaning tables did thanks outback great birthday dinner I'll stick with Texas Roadhouse read more

They need to hire more help. The wait on drinks and food is ridiculous for that price. Steak was cold when we finally got it. It's been like this for a while because the same bartender has been there a while and it's not her fault she's a hard worker doing her best but management needs to seriously get her some help. Will not be going back until this has been fixed. Shame on management and owner of this outback read more
