Evan was a great server—super friendly, easygoing, and attentive. He made sure we had everything we needed and kept things running smoothly without hovering. Really added to a relaxed, enjoyable experience. Would definitely be happy to have him as our server again.

Absolutely fantastic experience at Outback! The food was delicious—hot, fresh, and exactly what we were craving. What really stood out was how fast everything came out; the wait time was practically nonexistent, which was such a nice surprise.
And I have to give a huge shoutout to our server, Lauryn. She was absolutely stunning, incredibly kind, and truly made the entire experience memorable. Her energy, attentiveness, and positive attitude took the meal from great to unforgettable. You can tell she genuinely cares about her guests.
We’ll definitely be back—great food, amazing service, and an all-around awesome experience!

My family went to dinner at the Outback on I-10 and had the best waitress. She was on top of everything. Always had our drinks filled and our table was always clean. I will be asking for her every time we go back. Her name is Annabelle. She was the sweetest. Also I have to say the manager there Heather came to our table to see how we were doing a few times. She was very nice and sweet and made sure everything was going good for us. Thats a GREAT manager!!

Dmire made our visit to Outback Steakhouse unforgettable. You can tell right away that he truly cares about his guests. He is courteous, attentive, and always checking in at just the right time. He goes above and beyond in every way, from making sure everything is perfect to anticipating what you need before you ask.
At 53 years old, I can honestly say he is the best waiter I have ever had in my lifetime. His service turns a good meal into an amazing experience. If you dine here, ask for dmire —you will leave impressed and well taken care of.
