What People Are Saying About Outback Steakhouse

In Short – Boomerangs, Aussie flags, kangaroo portraits and faux aboriginal art honor the homeland's wilderness, but Outback delivers a polished version of rusticity with varnished blond-wood booths with matching wainscoting and casually uniformed waitstaff. Besides more than a half-dozen cuts of steak, diners can pick from large-portioned entrees like ribs, chops and shrimp or chicken "on the barbie." The Bloomin' Onion, a large onion dipped in batter and deep-fried, is an appetizer with a following.

Best Meal Anywhere
by ivandeterrible at Citysearch
Considering I weigh 375 pounds, I am always looking for a place that serves BIG portions. I found it here. The quality of the food is not important to me so this was perfect--Big Portions of Food that I really enjoyed. Of Course I also enjoy digging in my neighbors pale for old table scraps. My wife watched me eat my whopping big outback steak when she wasn't drooling chunks of blooming onion onto her large chest. We both scarfed down the flaming kangaroo and then finished up with an Outback Sundae that was topped with a folded sausage and pepperoni pizza that I had smuggled into the restaurant inside of my backpack. Yummie!!! I really enjoyed the waitress mostly because she seemed to turn a blind eye when I ate the leftovers from the table next to ours.
Worst Steak Ever!
by musicman63 at Citysearch
I've gone to a lot of different steak houses throughout a number of countries in the world including Argentina and Brazil which are both known to having the best steak in the world. This steak house experience was an insult to my taste buds. The steak did not come cooked as requested. Even the service was lousy. I ordered a high quality cut around $30 and specified well done. Within minutes the steak came back with red in the center. Not what I asked and of course the restaurant did nothing to correct the problem. I was going to refuse to pay but my friend who went with me did not want me to make any waves. By the way, his hamburger was also way undercooked. We both left very disappointed. In fact the steak here was even worse than the Sizzler, which is saying a lot because I could not stand the last trip to Sizzler. In fact that experience was the worst until Outback beat them by a landslide. I have not returned to Sizzler since. In fact I won't return to Outback ever again!
Terrible Management
by baby66 at Citysearch
My husband and I were mortified by the customer service. There was an altercation at a table near us because the customer was complaining that the main course was served while the table was still full of empty, dirty dishes--soup, salad etc. The customer politely complained to the waiter who somehow antagonized the customer. Then a series of managers came to the table and continued to antagonize the customers. Finally the main manager called the Lakewood Sherrif to evict the customers who were more than willing to leave. Two of the people in this evicted party were close to 90 years old. It was very pathetic. We will never return to this restaurant.
- Pros: Awful and heartless management
- Cons: Awful and heartless management
Worst Dining Experience In Years
by ivey_douglas at Citysearch
Dirty dishes not cleared from table. Terrible attitudes from employees. Steak--greasy & tasteless. Ribs--very tough. WAY overpriced for what you get. It's Denny's with hardwood floors and at quadruple the prices.
We will never return and highly recommend that anyone who enjoys a good meal avoid this trap.
- Pros: Nice floors
- Cons: Terrible food at high prices
