Foods great ! One tiny fix on to go orders my croutons on my salad were saugy and the cheese made it mushy, but I cleaned my plate !! Outbacks salads are by far the most delicious I have had in a very long time,KUDOS Outbackers your steaks are great too so don't stop blowin it up. Thanks for amazing food

The restaurant was busy, but our server was still very friendly despite the packed house. The new item on the menu, New York Strip, was done to perfection and very flavorful.

It wasn't the best experience for sure! Had to wait almost an hour for steaks and when they did come out the steak was not cooked right. Sent it back 1 min later they bring it back out still not cooked right! Server had to be asked to refill drinks! You would think that if you're spending over $150.00 for dinner that the food would be prepared right the first time, but when you send it back and it comes out looking the exact same as it did before, then there is something really wrong in their quality standards. Sorry we will not be back, worst experience ever

Ordered on Door Dash from merchants rd, knoxville TN location. Everything was ridiculously salty. It was if a salt shaker opened up and emptied itself in or on everything. I ended up scraping the steak off and considered washing it. That said it was a waste of $44.00 and won't go there or order from them again.

Hello me and my family recently went out to go eat here and two of us had burgers and one of us had a steak and we all ended up getting food poisoning.
