Outback Steakhouse offers a varied menu with good food, including popular items like chopped salad and cheesecake. The service can be hit or miss, with some diners praising the attentive and friendly waitstaff. Many customers have had wonderful experiences, noting that staff members like Noah are very courteous, attentive, and knowledgeable, often going above and beyond to make meals special. One customer mentioned that the kitchen manager and waitress worked together to make their meal even better, calling it the greatest Outback Steakhouse in the country. Overall, the restaurant provides an enjoyable dining experience, with a focus on quality food and drinks, and friendly staff who make guests feel welcomed and cared for.
Recent reviews highlight that the staff handles issues well, with one customer appreciating how Lauren, the waitress, was kind and offered to replace or remove the overcooked steak from the bill when it was not cooked properly. Jay, the kitchen manager, personally made a fresh steak to ensure satisfaction, showing the restaurant’s commitment to good service. Customers also noted that although the food was generally good, some dishes like the “mac and cheese” did not meet expectations, tasting more like spicy pasta salad. Service was described as decent, but occasionally slow, with concerns about cleanliness, such as food left on the floor not being cleaned promptly, which could pose a fall hazard. Despite these minor issues, the overall experience remains positive, with many grateful for the attentive staff and quality food.
