    Wanted a good steak, hadn't eaten here since COVID started, so in we go. Surprised place was fairly empty, even the bar at 6:00 on a Friday night, but it got going later. We got seated in a booth, very polite male server, & ordered drinks and dinner. We split the ribeye and coconut shrimp plates. Very well prepared to our liking, good portions, and the vegetables were not overcooked. Great tasting steak, the prawns were crispy with a nice marmalade & the bread was hot. He was a very polite & attentive attendant, brought bread & butter when we were low, water, and didn't over sell anything. Nice to see this while dining. We finished with a chocolate dessert we shared. We had a great meal. Wish l could remember his name as he was a great representative of this place. Great experience for a very good meal. (Can be pricey for some folks). Two thumbs up.

    Outback Steakhouses in general have lost a bit of their consistency. This is also shown by a lot of empty tables, which is very unusual for a well-known steakhouse chain restaurant on a Thursday evening. But: If you're lucky and they have a good day, the Outback Steakhouse can be really good. We had such a day today and were completely satisfied. Don't miss their new Ahi Tuna, it's really good!

    Cash/Card accepted Restroom inside Dine in available Free Public Parking Family friendly Located near Olympia mall. A great place to take a loved one and or family members. I am a fan of their steaks, it was cooked right for my taste. Their full bar has a wide variety of drinks and other draft beers, a good mention for adult drinkers. Staff are attentative and friendly. Cleanliness is standard. Overall a good stop for steak and other items. Recommended to come back here during opening at 4:00 Pm.

    Well me, and my hubby, decided we would go to Outback to celebrate our 30th wedding anniversary. Started with a couple of cocktails, a lemon drop, and a Cadillac margarita. Lemon Drop was not so good, the Cadillac was a better, and we also started with the famous Blooming Onion which is always a winner. We both ordered the 18 oz ribeye and it was delicious, perfectly cooked to a medium rare, the sweet potato with butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon was so good, the loaded baked potato was very good I am assuming because my hubby ate all of it. We also had a garden salad, and a salad wedge. We would definitely go back. The server was exceptional, he made sure we had everything we needed, and was extremely polite. Just overall a great anniversary dinner. Thank you Outback!

    This steakhouse was one of the best I have been to, with the food being absolutely outstanding! I ordered the filet mignon, and the amount I got out of the meal for twenty five dollars was wonderful. I like a lot of variety in my food, so the fact that it came with a choice potato AND a side! It was all so delicious, I was full and kept eating. Now, with the service, this blows the food out of the water. Our waiter, Cole, was so wonderful and kind, made jokes, and made us feel at home. He came over multiple times and asked us if we needed anything and always offered to get us more drinks. This man deserves a raise, and if I had more money in my pocket I would have given it to him.

    We love the outback! It's great for date night, special occasions and, a few drinks! My favorites are the blooming onion, the wallaby darned and seared ahi! My husband almost always gets the Alice Springs chicken.

    We went early on mothers day before the crowd so not rushed and service was quick. Food was very good and plentiful, done just right. Server was very accommodating and fast. Only gave Food 4 stars because the Bloom'n onion seemed to be a little overdone, dry and not enough dipping sauce. Otherwise a very good experience.

    Deliciously cooked steak with the perfect seasoning and tenderness. My lobster was under cooked, but I think everyone but me likes half cooked seafood. Lol. Great prices, Beautiful environment. I highly recommend. Always remember to tip your cook, they can put love or hate into your food, let's steer them towards love! 🧡🧡😎💪

    Our waitress was very nice and attentive. Food was outstanding, ordered Alice Springs Chicken and others ordered steak to their liking, potatoes and vegetables. Delicious! The only thing that should be improved is the wait time between the appitizer and meal delivery. Anyways, will be returning for sure!

    Rachel was our server in the bar, and she was fantastic! So helpful! My dine rewards app wasn't working and she hooked it up for me! Great steak, everything tasted amazing! Definitely recommend this location and Rachel as a server!

    The service was good, the staff was friendly and attentive. The food quality was good, but it would be great if menus told you what ingredients are in the meals. I was totally caught off guard when green onions appeared in an Alfredo pasta... Aside from that everything else was good. The baked potato soup and Aussie cheese fries were really good, as well as the initial bread they brought out. I will have to remember to ask about green onions in stuff moving forward...

    This was my first time here, my partner recommended this place. Unfortunately I won't be coming back. Our Waitress Julia B. is the only reason why this restaurant is getting a semi-decent review. My food was raw twice and she was super sweet about it and took both dishes back. I also don't think my partner got everything that he ordered with their meal. Hopefully I left a decent enough tip for all the trouble she had to go through!

    Food was delicious, and our waiter was very pleasant. It was my birthday and they gave me ice cream, I was grateful 🙏 🙂 everything was so delicious 😋 I am not a lover if onions, but I decided to try the blooming onion because if the great reviews, and I was not disappointed at all! It was so good, and big enough for more than two persons,absolutely delicious.

    Our family visited on Tuesday 12/19 around 4:30 for dinner. The service was fantastic! Their Tuesday Lobster and Steak special is awesome! It was delicious and fair priced for only being $29.99. And, of course, you can never go wrong with a Blooming Onion to start the meal off 😋

    Husband ordered his steak medium. First steak came out well done and black on both sides. Second steak came out black on one side and medium rare. (Lose the steak press, fellas!) His Alice Springs chicken looked like it had been dropped on the floor. We were told that it looked that way because they had to pull back the cheese and bacon to remove the mushrooms. My Alice Springs chicken was edible. The honey mustard had a "skin" over the top of it...like pudding. My broccoli was a paley ellow-green with some browning. Our salads were good. We opted for those over the soup offerings of French Onion or Creamy Onion. Really? Two onion soups? What about a little variety? Finally, our server tried to charge us for three meals. He fixed it, but still... We have eaten here for MANY years, but it will be a while before we come back.

    Was excited to eat here.. ordered prime rib sandwhich which had the least amount of meat I've ever seen on any sandwhich ever...was all mushroom and onions for $17! My daughters salad was nothing like described. Will never come here again.

  • 2/5 anthony c. 1 year ago on Google
    As far as Outback Steakhouse goes, this one is mediocre and not worth your money. I have been here on three separate occasions and my food is never correct, this time they forgot the mushrooms on the Alice spring chicken, I asked for some and they brought me some with an inedible amount of seasoning on them.

  • 5/5 Cathleen S. 1 year ago on Google
    These guys all around rock!! The manager came and sat and talked to us, gave us a discount because it was my husband's first time there and have us a gift card for next time. The food was cooked to perfection and tasted delicious! Thank you all for the wonderful late valentines celebration!!

  • 5/5 KasandraB11 9 months ago on Google
    The food was delicious! We had the grilled chicken and prime rib roast. They were cooked perfectly! Our waitress was very attentive and friendly, even to the rude customers across from us. She was a saint! We would definitely visit again.

  • 2/5 Dr. P. 10 months ago on Google
    Dinner here was burnt and crispy. I ordered medium rare. Don't get me wrong, I don't mind bbq char. This was just burnt. I guess that explains why it took an hour to get our meal. The manager comped the meal, so the price was right but my idea of a fun Saturday night isn't sitting an hour waiting for food just to have to get burgers elsewhere on the way home.

  • 5/5 Amber T. 9 months ago on Google
    My wife and I went out on a date here this past Friday and it was such a great time! Our drinks were super yummy and came out quick! Our food was delicious!!! I mean melt in your mouth steak (literally!!) The service was the best we've ever had here!! Jada was our waitress and she was amazing!! She was really attentive and had top notch customer service! We will definitely be back more often now because of her!!

  • 4/5 Jeannie S. 1 year ago on Google
    Great prime rib tonight! Excellent alternate selection by the waitress. I hope they share tips because my partner loves to tip but we were served by three different people, who do you too? I do not know how food service... Need to go on a night they have prime rid and creamy horseradish yummy 😋😋 Great job to all involved!

    Called to place an order to go. Had to call twice to have someone answer. When they did pick up they simply said "Hello". I had to confirm I was indeed speaking with Outback. Went to pick up my food and paid w cash. They shorted me my change as they didn't have any coins to give me. Apparently, nothing in any of the registers up front or at the bar? And the price for a wedge salad, picture included, was nearly $9.00. I don't know about you, but this picture shows what I got for that and I feel pretty disappointed.

  • 3/5 Mikey A. 2 years ago on Google
    The server had a great attitude. Unfortunately my steak was undercooked, mashed potatoes were runny. It took a long time to get my lady's wine. The reason for a 3 star 🌟 though is cause my lady steak 13 years ago was extra salty 🧂 but this time they cooked it to perfection. Definitely will try again sometime this year.

  • 4/5 Chloe B. 2 years ago on Google
    I’m giving a 4 for the service. The server was a young guy but was very efficient, familiar with the menu and on top of the 8 top we had. The food was okay considering the prices. If the hours are limited I am always expecting the highest quality of food and prep which I didn’t feel Outback was extraordinary. So many better local places in the area. But a great place if you have a group that all eat different things.

    5 STARS TO ANITA! I ordered via the Outback app 2x but it would not work, even with Anita's help. And then she went above and beyond to help my husband make sure we got the order in, correct and back out in record time! Thank you, Anita! Now the app did not work and we still do not know why, but we got our order be it a bit different since you have more options by not using the app. We had a pretty big order for 5 people and we get home and had 1 loaf of bread and 1 small cup of butter. Everyone knows warm Outback bread with their whipped butter is the best. Don't get me started on the cheesefries! Does this picture look like $15.00 cheese fries? And where's the bacon?
