Food was good as always but service was awful. Took 10 minutes or longer for server to come to us (restaurant not busy) for drink orders. We were ready for food orders too but asked us to wait as her handheld device wasn't working. Ten mins later we had to ask again for drinks. Eventually took food order. Had to ask for bread. It was at least half hour before food arrived. When I asked for check it was incorrect...twice. I usually tip generously but did not feel it was warranted this time.

Sydney is fantastic, super friendly! We love the quality of food for the price at Outback. Our favorite chain for dinner and this location is one of the best.

Great experience all around. Service was fantastic and I was greeted with nothing but smiles from the staff. Ribeye was very flavorful and cooked to perfection! Will definitely be back.

My son surprised me and took me here tonight! I Loved it as usual. I'm so upset I can't remember our server's name. He was so friendly! He really did a great job. We sat in the bar area and it was between 5 and 6pm, just in case the manager reads this and knows what his name is. I apologize that I can't remember. I would love to give him the praise for how good he was. If I can remember you can bet the next time we go I will personally ask for him to be our server. If it doesn't come to me and I see him I will ask for him. The food was great as always and he made our visit better!

You can't beat the "Onion Blossom" for and appetizer! Got the "Blossom Burger" with fries. Maybe a bit too much "Blossom" for the day, but still good!

This place is actually way better than it’s current rating of 3.9-Stars as of 7/24/23. There must be some locals or out-of-towers with unreasonable expectations. It’s a steakhouse and the food is good quality, the service is timely, and the Draft Beer Taps are Clean, Fresh and Cold; and they have Fosters on Tap !!!

When my daughter specifically requested Outback Steakhouse for her birthday 8th dinner, I was shocked to say the least. Not only was it a 90s staple that we had all once loved, but had also long lost its reputation. I was also very perplexed how she how came about this about decision.
Like most siblings, her older brother is the complete opposite and refuses to eat most forms of meat. To complicate things even further, my mom is known for having issues when dining out and steak was something that was never made right for her, always having a reason to complain.
Knowing I had a party of 8, Sunday evening, a birthday girl, difficult parents, a picky son and I am habitually late, I made the wise decision to call ahead when they opened. The restaurant doesn’t “take reservations” but would for large parties, like in this case. I made a call ahead for 5:00pm, giving us enough time to wait around. Already off to a great start.
Unbeknownst to me, we somehow arrive a few minutes early, despite the location being about 15 minutes across town. We passed Texas Roadhouse about a mile before and were shocked to see a huge wait with the parking lot full, and people overflowing outside.
To say we were blown away was an understatement. We quickly devoured the classic blooming onion before I ever even got a chance to take a picture. It may be a million calories and it’s worth every single one if cooked perfectly.
My incredibly picky son ordered a double order of mac and cheese declared it to be the best he ever had. Everyone tried to get a taste, but he guarded it with his life and the knife the restaurant provided him.
Most importantly, every single steak was cooked perfectly.
Everyone knows by now, or should know, since the pandemic the service industry is struggling with not only supply chain issues but retention of workers. I say this because when you are waited on by someone who has made a career out of food service, it’s noticeable. This was one of those times. Braylin (sp?) was honestly one of the best waiters I have ever had!
From the moment we arrived he was spot on with every detail. Water glasses were always filled, soup and salad came perfectly time between appetizers, and his smile never left his face when my mom swore she ordered her steak medium rare, not rare or when my dad complained that he “meant” to order his daiquiri blended, not on the rocks.
You better believe I tipped well.
Overall great experience and a rare 5/5 given. We made sure to make an early reservation of 5:00pm to allow for lots of time for a large party. We called ahead and something I would highly recommend for groups of 6 or more as the restaurant quickly filled up within the hour. Looking forward to our next visit

I ordered a smoked T-bone, full of ritual sense! It is very delicious, the meat is very tender, and it has reached the medium rare I want! The lack of one star is because the sirloin I ordered for my friend was clearly required to be medium rare, but it was cooked like dry firewood. Of course, a very user-friendly remake was made. The waiting time is very long, even if you just open the door, you still have to wait for more than 30 minutes to eat delicious steaks when there are no customers...

My fiance and I had an amazing time at this location.
We stopped in at 8:48pm on a Sunday 12 minutes till closing.
The staff didn't turn us away which was shocking they invited us in. Everyone was so welcoming and polite.
Our server ANDREW was the best he didn't rush us
He was very patient, he provided excellent customer service.
Our food was fresh, hot and on point.
This has to be the best location around.
Thx Andrew and to the whole outback staff who worked the night of 6/5/22 we appreciate you all. We'll definitely be back soon.
