Outback Steakhouse

We ordered take-​out and they had forgotten some Mac N Cheese for my little one. They were so kind and replaced our dinner! They had such amazing service and really went above and beyond to make our dinner a great one! Thank you! I believe Marco was the young man to approach my father with the meal and was very nice thank you again — we love outback!

We what to say! 1^st not very Australian. 2^nd it took 4 goes to get my wife’s steak correct. 3^rd make sure you book in online as if you do not you will have to wait for 1 hour like we did. The car park is supper small too. On the up side my steak was great so was my sons. So may be just do not get the filet mignon!!! I wish it was better as its so close to home. Ho well!

Came in at exactly 12:02 for lunch. Ordered off the lunch combo menu thinking «hey, it’s lunch, they know people have to be back at work… «
At exactly 12:53 my steak tacos arrived at my table. Had to track down any thing we needed for the table (sauce, etc)
Food was okay, skip it for the slow service.

I received an e mailed coupon from Outback. So we had dinner there tonight. We called ahead to reserve seats when we left home. We got the table right away. I had spicy chicken tortilla soup and sirloin and crab cake with sweet potato. The soup was Ok. The tortilla strips created crunchy texture in the soup which was interesting. A couple chicken cubes and tomato were in the soup. Not spicy at all. Crab cake was good size with good amount of crab meat and good enough flavors. The sirloin steak tasted plain, lack of seasoning. The bake sweet potato was delicious with butter, whip cream and sugar. The service was fast and good.

Waited over an hour to receive our appetizers… It was busy but waitress forgot about my table. It’s okay but don’t come here if you’re hungry cause it will be awhile!

I have not been to an Outback chain restaurant in a looooong time and I used to really like it. However, now the food deserves no stars but I gave 2 stars for the service alone. Our waitress was nice and management was also very nice. I don’t think there was anything that wrong with our food except for the prime rib being too rare. However nothing tasted good! I feel like the quality overall at Outback has declined, I don’t think it’s particularly this locations fault because since it is a chain the food gets shipped to them and they just cook to order. My steak was ok cooked right but lacked flavor, the blooming onion was not like I remember … I can go on. We were just not impressed and for shelling out almost $ 100 bucks for a family of 4 it better be worth it. Outback is definitely one restaurant that is not worth the money. That’s what I get for going to a chain I guess.

Five stars for food…1 star for the wait…3 stars combined. Called ahead for a party of nine and still ended up waiting for over an hour (in fairness, it was Saturday night on Labor Day weekend, however, we were never given any indication it would take this long, and were virtually ignored for most of that hour). We had four starving kids… and adult said «One day we’ll all look back on this and smile, and say, remember that time…» and a child chimed in «…that time we almost starved to death!!!»
Thank goodness for the sample plates that came around once every 20 minutes and served as appetizers for most of us, as well as the bread we requested for the kids (after an hour of waiting). We were finally seated at adjoining tables, and the situation brightened for the most part from that point forward… at least for the me and the other adults. Our server was friendly, quick and attentive to our entire party, and iur food didn’t take long from when we were seated.
From my son: «Do not order the kids hamburger, it’s horrible.» For argument’s sake, I’ll mention that he is very picky and only eats a handful of things, but he refused to eat the plain hamburger with pickles and ketchup… even after complaining of starvation for over an hour.
My meal was the petite filet Mignon (medium) topped with Portobello mushrooms and Parmesan cheese, accompanied by broccoli topped with cheddar cheese and a glass of pinot noir. I have to admit, I am still dreaming about this meal. I may have been so hungry it altered my opinion somewhat, but I don’t think so. It was WONDERFUL, I cannot wait to go back and have it again!

Ate here for the first time before we hit the movies, blooming onion, wow, only wish on that more of the yum sauce lol, food was great service was just as good, slight lack on the drink refill but non the less still a good time, to pricey to go eery week but I know we will be returning

Dinner Saturday night .
My wife and I both had the steak and shrimp. Steaks cooked perfect. Shrimp perfect. The waiter did a great job.

absolutley worse Outback I have evr been too. Not only did they mess up our orer but then they over charged us by 30.00, and when they «fixed «the check it was still wrong… Waste of time and money !!!

Outback Steakhouse has long been a fixture of quality food, fun atmosphere at reasonable prices. Since 1983 when their first restaurant opens on Henderson they have been serving consistent quality and service. Over the last few years, all restaurants have tinkered with their portion size and prices to survive the economy. Outback has taken it to a whole new level with my meal this evening. Their pricing increase has outpaced their portion decrease to a comical level. When the server brought my dinner, I could only chuckle and ask where the rest of it was?!! She offered to bring me a new plate, but I rarely send my food back to the kitchen, and certainly someone in expediting had seen and approved sending it out to me. I fear I have closed the file on Outback experiences for me and will not be back. Raise your prices or shrink your portion size, but do not attempt to trick my out of my money. I work just as hard for it as you do.
Oh how I will miss the chocolate thunder from down under

So my rating is only for this experience here. As you will see, this is pretty justified.
The three of us ordered and were very specific. I made sure to ask my guests if I said something confusing when my order came out wrong, but they said it was pretty clear. One guest received her quesadilla with mushrooms, which just minutes before we had a conversation with our server about how she dislikes them and could she have them off of the quesadilla. In addition, my salad was a «small salad» with uncut chicken tenders on too when I ordered a large BBQ ranch crispy chicken salad.
Ok. So it happens, right? No biggie. But what happens when they bring you a «large salad» but it also isn’t the one you ordered??? Do you eat it? You really wanted that BBQ crispy chicken southwest salad thing you ordered. So I told her I wanted the proper dish and she apologized and said it would be out in a minute. In the meantime she left this salad and I picked out and ate all of the crispy chicken because I was starving. I had already eaten a loaf of bread so I was on a roll. Get it, «roll?»
Well, my guests both finished their drinks and meals and I had picked out all of the chicken from the wrong salad. It must have been 20 minutes later when the kitchen brought out the «right» salad. I HAD to inspect the salad given the history of the evening. Now this is where the 1 star comes in: the chicken was RAW! pink. Chicken. In. My. Salad. Proof is in the pictures. I was done at that point. At least I filled up on bread and chicken from that other salad which was cooked (I checked).
So they get 1 star because I didn’t die :) and because they didn’t charge me.

My sweet husband and wonderful kids took me to outback for my birthday and I have to say that I was a bit disappointed. Hubby and I had the sirloin and lobster, the lobster was tough and flavorless. Very disappointing. Now I have to say that the shrimp and lobster bites appetizer was very tasty. The sangria was good and the kids talpia and cheeseburger were very good. Our waitress cassandra was great! Get the steaks straight outback

Well? What can I say? I like the few menu changes such as the lobster and shrimp bites appetizer with the Thai chili dipping sauce and revisiting an Old favorite in the coconut shrimp with the marmalade dipping glaze for our appetizers but a place that claims to be a steakhouse to this day still doesn’t deliver the goods let alone a great steak. They may consider changing the name to Outback seafood house as the seafood outshines the steak once again. Our server Cassandra was top notch and was very friendly and always there to take good care of us. Maybe ask your sister company, Carrabbas why they are able to serve a better steak than its big brother but Outback is still not my first choice for a fine steak.

Good times…
Have always had great service with good food. This place would get 5 stars if they had more parking!
This place is always packed at night, especially on the weekends. Even though crowded, the wait staff really tries to make your meal wonderful.
I have had the outback special most times, but the baby back ribs are also a great choice. The chopped blue cheese salad never fails to satisfy. If cooking a steak for you, they always seem to get it just right.
Usually too stuffed to eat dessert, nonetheless their selection is scrumptious!

We had a gift card that we decided to use it here and try since we have never been here before. I ordered the Pork Chops which were delicious. My wife ordered the steak, also delicious. The service was outstanding and the atmosphere was friendly. I’m glad we tried it and we’ll go back.

Worst experience ever at Outback!
The service was slow and terrible. The lettuce on the salad was brown. I exchanged it for the potato soup and it was cold. Then I got my meal I ordered my Out ack special steak medium and I received a steak that was like beef jerky and all of our fries were cold and old. I had them make me another steak and that one was raw inside. The manager came over to give me my steak but was very dismissive. Worst $ 80 we have ever spent. Avoid at all cost, don’t waste your time or money.

I have been to this restaurant several time. I like the outback at this particular location due to their service, material control, chef skill are top of their own chain restaurant. Tonight is special new year eve night. My wife call ahead for on system reservation. When we get there, there are already a lot of people waiting. The hoster said it need 1.5 hour of wait. We tell them our reservation and we waited for 20 minutes.
We sat down at 6:15 and the line is still building up after we have left at 7:40 pm. We came here today is not about the new year eve. It is about the Wednesday special 3 course meal $ 12 and up. It came with soup or salad and desert at entrée price. I have chicken totier soup with 12 oz prime rib and my wife have the Parmesan chicken. The totier soup is tomato base with spicy flavor and chicken chunk. The cheese melt in the soup make the spoon feed with dragging line of cheese from the bowl. The prime rib is an open grilled cooking and it is about a inch thick. It marinate with pepper corn and salt. They grilled to folk tender medium rare. It came with grill asparagus. My wife Parmesan chicken have the cheese on top and lite spice of garlic and salt. This make the Parmesan crispy when it oven baked. The crispy crush make the food more flavor to eat.
The overall service tonight is a bit slow due to crowded condition. The line still build up.

I came again to give it another chance and the 2 stars are just for the server. He was great!
The food was not good. We ordered the new special of steak with crab meat because we tried jt at another location (Henderson) and it was delucious! Not the case at this outback in Wesley Chapel. Steak did not have ANY flavor. Very very bland not typical of outback steaks.
They gave us a little crumb of crab meat on top. You could hardly see it. I didnt take a picture of it but i wish i did because it was ridiculous
The chopped salad had no flavor at all and lettuce was soggy. Not the typical fresh salad i am used to get at outback
The bread was cold and not even warm like it usually is in other putbacks
I am not sure what is wrong with this Outback but it gives a bad name to the chain. I am a Outback lover for many years but unfortunetely this wesley chapel location does not know how to really make the Outback signature steaks. Sad!
If you do not know the real flavor of Outback then you will enjoy this location but if you like the real stuff and you are in new tampa just drive to south tampa and go to Henderson location it will be worth it

Yesterday was my hubby’s birthday, and we did not want to go too far from home. We never usually go to Outback bc the weekends are pretty busy but during the week, it’s not crazy busy where you have to wait forever.
We both had a steak and I had crab legs as well. Both were pretty good. Their potato soup is great, and their broccoli is yummy too. I am trying to cut down on carbs so I didn’t go crazy on the bread but it was tasty as ever.
Our service was great. Our waitress was sweet, nice, and super efficient.
They sang happy birthday to my husband and he was gleaming with happiness.
Oh also, I signed up for coupons to be sent to me through their website so we had an $ 8 coupon, so that made it even more awesome.
