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.

What to Drink:
If you're not a fan of Foster's, try another Australian beer: Newcastle Brown Ale.

MMMmmmm...craving it right now

I have loved go go here for quite sometime with my husband. Their service is always good, but their food is to die for. I have never had a bad meal. Their blue cheese dressing is outstading with their house salad and of course not to mention their steaks..always cooked perfectly wonderful and juicy. Best part is is so reasonably priced

Bad Night with bad food

by robgray82 at Citysearch

Horrible experience in one of my favourite chain restaurants.

The whole experience was horendous, the woman who recieved us was really rude to everyone i am suprised more people didn't leave. The waiter was amazing and the only reason i would go back. But based on the food it let the chain down. The Ceasar salad tasted like a bowl of salt. the steak was not cooked in the middle at all and I nearly commited the cardinal sin of returning the food.

Great

Wow, i'm really suprised at the other two reviews, i found Outback to be one of the best steak houses i've ever been to. And the main complaint is that the servers don't pay attention, i found that the opposite is true. It seemed like whenever i needed a refill on a coke, they pounced on the opportunity. Also, when having difficulty deciding on what to have, their servers are always very knowledgeble on what their specials are, and what suits your tastes.

  • Pros: Great, Food, Yum
  • Cons: Food is too good

Predictable; Fast Food Steakhouse

by Beeker425 at Citysearch

You at least know what you're getting when you go. The food is decent, the serving sizes average. The service seems to be sliding. They're eager to greet you; but too frequently your server abandons you, or if closer to closing is trying to rush you along. Be prepared for the screaming kids that you expect at a mainstream restaurant. Overall, value is OK--it's not bad, it's not great. Peak hours can mean a 30+ minute wait. Is Outback worth a 30 minute wait?

  • Pros: ample parking, consistent meals
  • Cons: server inattention, long waits at peak
