    I hadn’t been to Outback in a long time and decided to go for my birthday. Was not disappointed. We got the 4 Course Meal for 2. We started with the Bloomin Onion, which is delicious. Followed by House Salads. I tried a bowl of the Tasmanian Chili, which is probably one of the best Chili’s I have ever had. The Sirloin and Filet Mignon were perfect. And the Baked Potato was the perfect combination of crispy and soft with the perfect amount of butter and coarse salt. For cocktails, the Strawberry Kiwi Rita was delicious. Tried the Boomarita Flight, the Blackberry was the best followed by the House Margarita, the other two were not very good. Finally I tried the Koala Punch and it was way too sweet and sugary but did come with a little Koala Rubber Duck. Overall a great evening with a fantastic meal. I will definitely be back soon to have another bowl of chili and some delicious food.

    Decided to get a sitter and take the opportunity to attempt a super rare opportunity for a night dining out somewhere that doesn’t include French fries in paper take out bags from fast food joints geared toward children. Big mistake. Ordered my steak well done do as to not risk getting undercooked steak or any hint of what could be blood as it physically makes me sick. Food was dropped off with reddish juice on top of the steak and running into the potatoes. cut into it and oh yep definitely not well done or even medium well. Steak was taken away by waitress while I was in the bathroom getting sick. A bit after I returned she stopped by and said they are cooking it more for me to which I replied that there’s no point as I wouldn’t be able to eat right now after having just thrown up from the plate if blood that was served to me. Manager comes out a bit later apologizes said they took the dish off my bill and then some. (False the only thing taken off was my entree rightfully so as I didn’t even have one bite of it) and asked if there was anything she could do to fix it. Serving someone who never gets adult time out, who got a sitter, and ordered a well done steak one that is bleeding causing your customer to throw up can’t be fixed by I took the steak off (of course I’m not paying for somthing I can’t eat and wasn’t prepared how I asked) and an apology. I Still wasted a sitter and my only adult time out in who knows how long and I didn’t even get to eat and got sick.

    The service was good, but the steak was bad and part of the restaurant stank. Also the mac and cheese was disappointing as well. For the price I am really disappointed.

    We don't go very often, this was a special occasion. At 5pm on Saturday It seemed very busy and we were worried we wouldn't be able to find parking or be seated promptly. But that wasn't the case! There were plenty of parking spots we had about 5-8 choices for parking that we could see. We had a wait time for a party of three of less than 10mins. The food was delicious and the drinks were yummy. I was surprised how low the noise level was with how busy it seemed. The price of everything was a bit expensive. For an appetizer, three drinks, and three entrees our bill was over $120.not including tip. Overall though it was a good place to go.
