    The wait was immediate and our waitress was attentive. The table and chairs were both clean. The atmosphere was comfortable and the noise level wasn't too much. I think the prices are good for the amount of food and choices. My husband got the steak and chicken meal and i got the steak and lobster. The lobster was small but it correlates with the prices and was delicious. If you want to impress someone on a budget this is a great place or just want comfort food. The drinks were good also but could be stronger.

    A great place to order food. You can find this location on Doordash too and have it delivered anywhere. Most nights this location is very busy and crowded.

    The food quality was excellent. I had the surf & turf with lobster and filet mignon. Both were awesome! The lobster was super-small, but great in taste. This was one of the best filets I've had in a LONG time. Kudos to the chef(s) on the preparation--it was a perfect medium rare. My wife had the sirloin. She said it was good but not as tasty and tender as the filet of course. This would have been a five-star experience but our server didn't rise up for the challenge. They were not busy so he can't use that excuse. He was a bit cold when taking our order and after we got our food, he was gone for more than 10 minutes at a time. We don't know where he went. He never asked us once if we liked the food or if we needed anything else. There was no conversation beyond the initial order. As you can see in my photo, my drink glass was empty. We waited a long time (over 10 minutes) before we had to flag him down to get a refill. He dropped off the check and didn't ask us if we had a good dining experience or anything else. We asked for a to-go soda and had to wait another 10 minutes for that. Needless to say, he didn't get a good tip from us. This could have been a five-star experience and it is unfortunate that a server can lower the rating. He also needs to understand that he can go home with more $$$ in his pocket if he just puts a bit of effort into making things pleasant for his customers. I hope management will see this and remind their servers that the eating experience isn't just about good food. Otherwise, this was a good eating adventure and we will back again. Hopefully we will have a better server. Kudos to the kitchen for super-excellent food!

    Similar to any other Outback, the food here was no better or worse, but I wanted to leave a rating based on a good experience I had here. Delta airlined posted me up at the Comfort inn after missing a layover due to maintenance issues on their end. I was cranky, starving, and when I checked into the Comfort inn it was 9p on a Sunday- I figured most places would be closed. This was very conveniently attached to the Comfort inn, and they sat me with no issues or complaints despite 20 mins before close. The bartender was very friendly, food came out quick and was done well. Walked out of here in a much better mood than when I walked in!

    We had a wonderful experience having Outback Steakhouse Bloomington cater our National Night Out! It was so generous of them to donate a meal for NNO and we so enjoyed having them join our evening with our neighborhood. The food was amazing and they went above and beyond. Thank you for making our National Night Out so special and for treating us with an amazing dinner!

    We are staying at the Holiday Inn right next door to Outback Steakhouse. We decided to place a pickup order. The order process was easy. We walked over to pickup our order. The employee greeted us and we told them we are there for our pickup order. He said of course and he promptly brought it to us. We asked him if there was cutlery and plates/napkins in our bag and he insisted it was. Guess what none of it was included. We called him from our hotel room and he said that he would make note of it. But he refused to compensate us in any way. Our food order was $124.00. So with their attitude being so poor we DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS RESTAURANT. We will not return to this restaurant again. There are plenty of restaurants in this area. Luckily Jake at Holiday Inn said he could help us out with utensils, plates, etc. And he did.

    This place knocked it out of the park. Food was made perfect. Had the coconut shrimp and 6 ounce combo. The baked potato was stunningly good. The atmosphere was great and fit the location pefectly. The wood theme was just pure class act. The service was stellar. We will be returning.

    Chrystal was our server and she was the best! She made our experience so welcoming. Acknowledging our kids and making sure we were enjoying our food. My son usually never eats his complete meal. But he wanted to impress Chrystal given she was cheering him on and finished it. Thank you Chrystal!!

    We had a great dining experience here. Parking was easy and the restaurant is attached to a hotel, so there were plenty of spaces available. The hostess was friendly but quiet. Our waitress was wonderful and also bilingual which was helpful for other tables near us. We ordered a burger, ribs, and salad. All the food was tasty and prepared exactly as requested. We would definitely return!

    We were celebrating getting together with friends from Italy who got to enjoy an amazing dinner starting off with wonderful appetizers. The Ahi Tuna and Coconut Shrimp was really good. The bread and butter is one of the big things they're known for other than the Blooming Onion. We sat in the bar area that had booths and tables enough for six people comfortably and all kinds of TVs. The prime rib was amazing and you can't go wrong with the steak and chicken combo. The blooming onion burger was done just perfect and we had a great time.

    I’ve been to a lot of restaurants, but Jake made our night out an amazing night to remember! We were celebrating the launch of our new podcast and he made sure everything was perfect! We even got some cake to celebrate!!!! Thank you

    They got us in as a party of nine really quickly on a Saturday night! Food was average. Nothing to write home about. I got a bloomin' burger. Server was fantastic. Don't remember his name though.

    Location was the reason for dining here, (staying at Courtyard)! And, food was simply okay. Staff did as well as any other, wasn't all that busy but things moved slow. Attributing to possibly the hour in which we arrived, 8:00pm. Their cocktails we good, all and all good, not great.
