    I usually don’t review, but omg… this had to be the worst food I’ve ever had. The steak taste like rubber. The shrimp idk what it taste like but not shrimp. I will never be back. I give the server 2 stars instead of 0 only because I seen she was the only one working but I know she seen how my food looked. The food 0 stars please don’t come here. This has to be a food safety hazard.

    Unfortunately, the service really overshadowed the experience. We were a party of three and were at the restaurant for almost two hours, with most of that time spent waiting. We shared two entrées, so it was not a demanding table at all. Despite that, our table felt completely disregarded throughout the meal. The final straw was after we had already paid and were about to leave. We asked for a to-go box and waited another 10 minutes. When our server finally passed by, instead of acknowledging the long wait, she responded with a sassy “✋🏻☝🏻 can you give me a second”, which felt unnecessary given how much time had already passed. I was willing to let things slide, but the overall lack of attention and attitude made the experience disappointing. Hoping this is not the standard, but it was enough to leave a negative impression.

    I personally want to thank Apollo and Crystal, Crystal was our server and she was amazing! She made sure we were ok and taken care of, I had $34 but in coins 🥲So I had asked her if that was ok and she told me that it was ok but she wanted to ask her manager first just in case. Then boom! He appeared haha, but he was very nice and kind. Apollo said that they do accept that and that he would even count it for crystal which I thought was very nice of him. I honestly had an amazing time here, the food was top tier😍 I had the lobster tails, my fiancé had the king island pasta and our friend had the ribs. My lobsters were delicious, the mashed potatoes were on point and the broccoli and cheese was just so good 100/10🤤The pasta was amazing and our friend said the ribs were delicious and tender 🖤The gingerbread fizz was really good too! I got two of those 🥰 Would definitely come again and again

    went over with friends to this Outback in Norwalk, one of my favs steakhouses, had the Bloomin’ Onion which is fried onion rings as shareable, we all ordered different dishes try the fried chicken with baked potato, or steak with a mac n cheese side, everything tastes good there even the bread and butter they serve, atmosphere is casual can get a bit noisy on busy hours, server was friendly, the dining room is spacious and clean, parking was easy and the location right off Norwalk Blvd makes it convenient to get to. Overall, a reliable choice for a relaxed meal with friends or family.
