The $15 special at the back of the menu is the way to go! The food was good and service decent. It did take a while longer than expected to receive our order, but nothing terrible. Would recommend.

We got the shrimp party platter. When I arrived for the curbside pickup the platter was delivered to my car within 3 minutes. Shrimp was well cooked and tasted good.

Restaurant was beautiful. Service was ok, only because I feel like they were understaffed. But the food was awful. My steak was overcooked, the broccoli tasted like it just came out of the ground, it wasn't even soft at all, and the potato also was hard. I keep trying to give the Outback chain a chance, but I will just find a local place that tastes better.

Edit...dropping from 2 stars to 1 star for my automated/AI response.

Disappointing. Went on a Tuesday evening.
Ordered the porterhouse (with fries and loaded potato) medium...seemed fine but then as you got closer to bone it was basically rare. Basically ate around it. Did not ask to be redone. Sides were good though but that's not what you are paying for.
We also orderd the Ribeye (with cesar salad and baked sweet potato). WARNING: it is not a plain baked sweet potato (SP) as I thought. They put honey/cinnamon and brown sugar. I don't eat sweets and was very shocked. Waitress should have informed us that it was a loaded SP because the menu doesn't say it or better yet, just updated the menu. They got me a replacement SP no problem. The problem was the original SP was on the same plate so all the sweet from potato melted onto the steak! The steak had been done medium and not overly seasoned. It was perfect but then all the melted sugar got onto it so it had to be replaced too.
It was replaced no problem. The manager came with new steak. Asked me to check for correct doneness and it was. She left. BUT then I bit into the steak. It was the SALTIEST steak I had ever eaten. It was basically inedible. I scraped off the seasoning as best as I could but it wasn't enough. I was tired of asking for replacements so just took it to go but didn't eat it.
What was the good? The bread you get at the beginning, fries, the PLAIN sweet potato and ceaser salad. And the cute koala/duckie.
How sad.
