    This is the third time I have been to Outback over the last 3 months. For whatever reason my family has asked to go on birthdays. The first thing I am going to say is that on all three occasions we went on the weekend and I tried to order the Classic Prime Rib and on all visits the did not have any. I was told, all three times, quite rudely, "We only have a limited supply." However, in all three cases my family and I were there at about 5:30ish pm. That should be on the early side to a prime dinner rush. It is ridiculous that they should be out...but ok...limited supplies. The last time we my party of 7 was stuffed into a booth and wer literally sat shoulder to shoulder. But, we are a close family...so meh. No biggie. I asked for coffe and was told that they were out of creamer. Ok...not the end of the world, but unusual. I understand that these things happen...i'm sure they were surprised as well. I saw the manager walking around and I thought it might be good for me to tell the manager about the issue (A captain can't right the ship if they don't know there is an issue). My daughter ordered the Filet Mignon and asked for it medium rare. Now...I like to cook...but I am no expert. However, I would have bet money that what my daughter got was chuck shoulder. It was tough to cut. Again, I am no expert, but I am pretty sure my daughter was not served a Filet Mignon...but we were surely charged for one. Now, to be clear, I was not looking for a deduction in my bill or a free meal or anything like this. I was simply trying to let the manager know there was a few issues and for a place like Outback that charges pretty top teir prices for a chain restaurant that perhaps it should be something she looked into. Although the manager never removed the smile from her face I was hit with a barrage of excuses and told in no uncertain terms that as far as the Prime Rib goes I should have been earlier as it is while supplies last. When I dared to suggest that perhaps they should order enough for them to at least make it to the dinner rush. I was again hit with more excuses. I was assureed that the filet mignon was filet mignon and as for our seating, well, that is just what they had and "Yep, we are out of creamer, I can get you a cup of milk". All in all our meal was just ok. Nothing to write home about. However, for what we paid I expect far better service and seating that accomodates us. As for my interaction with the manager. It was not rude or disrespectful. However, it was so poor that this will be the last time we eat at Outback in our city.
