This location is now finally permanently closed. It had been going downhill for years and I for one had been writing corporate for the past several years hoping that they would shut the damn place down or find management and a staff that would give a damn enough to run the place the right way. I guess they couldn't make that happen. Good riddance. I used to love this place it would go there two to three times a month. Very pissed off that they couldn't keep this running the right way.

Very elegant and convenient spot. They provide generous meals and for affordable prices. We loved the menu a lot and the waiters were super affable and chatty. Will definitely recommend this place.

What can I say.... it’s outback. They have consistently good choices. We ordered the “shareable” sirloin and a steak topper(or whatever they’re called) the sirloin arrived just perfectly as ordered and we didn’t even want the “topper” sauce. The grilling seasoning was just perfect the way it was

Not bad, but not amazing either. Price is fair for what you get, but I was not blown away either. Service was nice, friendly and on point while I dined, so that was a major plus in my book. The food was average though, but tasty and enjoyable. It wasn't anything above and above beyond however, so maybe I came in at the wrong time or perhaps next visit will be better. Only time will tell.

This place is my preferable place. Of all restaurants I know I prefere it most. I never miss an opportunity to go to visit this restaurant. everytime I feel like having a good lunch, this place comes instantly to my head. Great and all sorts of food and a rich cuisine.trained team, and nice ambience. And very important, the charge is decent. I tell about this place with pleasure.

We hadn't been to an Outback for a while probably around 6-7 years so we decided to go. We got there around 8:10 pm on a Tuesday. It was not crowded and we were seated very quickly. The Waiter came promptly and took our drink orders. as we talked and waited. 5 min. 10 min. and then some more. By this time there was only us (2) and one other table of 4.. We sat back to back in the Bar area. Finally our drinks arrived. I ordered a Strawberry Lemonade and my friend had a bottled beer.The Waiter then took our order, and brought some bread. I ordered the Surf and Sand which was a small steak and a skewer of broiled shrimp. My friend ordered the Salmon. And we waited. The other table had their dinner so they were fine. We waited some more. I heard someone from the kitchen say "Order" twice but the waiter was not in site. Finally the Bartender brought our food. it was now 9:12pm The shrimp was very tasty and my friend enjoyed the Salmon. My steak was tough though ,so I brought it home. The baked potato was also very good but cold and the bottom had a large rotted black spot . which was not edible So I actually got a 1/2 of a potato. It was not all bad but for the price we paid, I probably wont go back. We don't go out often so when we do it is a treat for us.

The service was excellent but the food was not so good. I asked for a steak without spices on it but it came with spice anyhow. The potato was barely warm. They offered me free dessert which I declined but did take a fair amount off the bill which I did not request. So service was great, they tried to make it right. I would try there again.

Food quality: I ordered medium but got a rare. The whole plate has a pink puddle. The baked potato was overcooked - hard and nasty potato. The onion bloom was drenched in oil. It was so so oily.

We called in advance for seating for 6. Placed us at a round table while we waited for our family to arrive. It seemed oddly cold, but figured maybe people were keeping the doors open. Family arrived, took a while for service. That's OK. But family started mentioning how old they were. By this time restaurant was full and we couldn't be moved. Evidently heat was out, but blowers continued to push cold air out, on us. Didn't get our bread without asking, service was so/so. Pork chops was overdone, steaks were either underdone or overdone. Side dishes were missing and for the most part, the food was cold. All of this for over $170. Really? I don't know how a restaurant is supposed to handle an outage, but we were miserable. We played word games throughout to get through the birthday dinner, but left without dessert, so we could have it at family's warm home. This was one night where most everything went wrong for Outback. Ran into some ladies in the restroom from the other side of restaurant who said they were also cold. Probably won't be back. Used to be a 5 star from us. Sad. Don't blame the servers.

We had a great waitress and multiple staff members came by to make sure everything was a-okay and get us whatever we needed. Food tasted amazing, only downside is that all of our steak was slightly cooked more than what we asked for but it tasted perfect anyway.

Coffee was cold, the order was botched and the energy was very low. Sad to see what was once my favorite place to get a steak devolve so badly. Got out as quickly as possible. Hope this was just a fluke. I will never know - not going back.

My favorite restaurant is Outback, I've (never been disappointed) in their food, drinks, or service. Prices totally reasonable. Thumbs up!
