    Service was great. Food was good, desert was done over the top. Bathrooms were dirty and smelled.

    I ordered the coconut shrimp with a baked potato. Shrimp was excellent, but potato was 3/4 hard. The waitress brought me another potato. It was the same. Husband ordered a ribeye with shrimp. Shrimp was good, ribeye was not medium well. Very red. DO NOT ORDER THE CORN. It takes horrible. The manager did come by our table and offered a small discount. We had not been to Outback in years. We won't be going back. So disappinted.

    Arrived around 8:45pm following an Alabama game as part of a group of 7. Wasn't terribly crowded and we were seated almost right away. Wait staff provided drinks relatively soon as we mulled a late evening choice. By the time we finished ordering it was almost 9:15. Still open tables. At slightly before 10pm we finally received our meals. Two of us had the grilled "prawns" meal, one had a salad and the rest had various steak entrees. I immediately noticed that while my creamed corn was hot my smaller-than-prawns shrimp were not. In fact they were cold. Cooked and spiced, but cold. I've eaten plenty intentionally-chilled shrimp but this wasn't supposed to be. I mentioned it to the others who also had the shrimp and turns out theirs was cold as well. Some of the ones with steaks said theirs wasn't hot as well. We could have complained and then waited until 1030 or later to have it possibly fixed but with everyone having several hours still to drive we opted to simply eat what we could, and left. My sense was they were understaffed out front and in particular, in the kitchen. As it got later it seemed to get worse as perhaps staff were released or sent home. Didn't take long to finish what we had (or chose) to eat and then we were on the road around 10:30. Honestly, while our team won and that made the trip worthwhile, eating here late after a game didnt allow the night to end well at all.

    *** Edited from 2 stars to 5 stars after talking to Mrs. Dana, the Store Manager - Thank you Mrs. Dana *** We arrived around 6:45 pm and were greeted by two sweet hostesses who took us straight to a booth (4 people in our party). Zack, our server, came over and took our drink order and appetizer order. He then returned with our drinks and bread, and took our orders, all four of us (three 6 oz sirloins and one burger). Our blooming onion arrived, it was delicious! Then our salads, again, delicious. It did take a little longer to get our entrées, but that was ok. However, when they did come, it was only the sirloins and no burger order. Zack stated that the kitchen had forgotten her order, so he asked again what she ordered. We told him, he goes to kitchen.....we wait....and wait....and wait. It was another 15 minutes before her plain burger and fries came out. A manager did bring it to our table (around 7:35), and said Zack forgot to ring it in. I then asked if it would be deducted from our ticket (mind you, I'm done eating, my other two daughters are practically finished, we've been in the restaurant for 45 minutes), and he tells me No. I could not believe it!! He said he'd have to talk to another manager - Really? Wow! Zack then comes over and apologizes and asked if the manager took it off my bill - No he did not. It's sad that even our server knew it should be taken off. Zack gets it taken care of and it is removed from my bill. (Thank you Zack) If the manager had done his job and taken it off my bill in the first place, I'd given more stars. But to me, he wasn't about doing the right thing and taking credit for the servers mistake. Not sure I'd eat here again.

    Our experience here was extremely disappointing from the moment we walked in. Our waitress was incredibly rude from the start. After we finished our meals, we sat for quite a while waiting for our check, but she never came back. We eventually had to figure out how to pay using the self-service kiosk and split the checks ourselves. The most frustrating part of the experience, however, was my 57-year-old mother attempted to order an alcoholic beverage. She had simply forgotten her ID and told the waitress that when she asked her for it. Her boyfriend ordered the drink for her, and our waitress knew exactly who the drink was intended for. She still brought it to the table, only for another employee to come over shortly afterward and take it away because my mother did not have her ID. We completely understand that businesses have policies regarding alcohol, and we have no issue with following the law. What was frustrating was the way the situation was handled. My mother is very obviously well over the legal drinking age, and there was no posted notice anywhere in the restaurant stating that everyone, regardless of age, is required to present identification. We were told that if the ABC Board came in, the restaurant could get in trouble. However, after reviewing Alabama law it states they require identification when someone appears to be under 21, rather than requiring every customer to be carded regardless of age. If the restaurant has a stricter internal policy requiring everyone to show ID, that policy should be clearly communicated to customers. Between the rude service, being left sitting without a check, and the way the alcohol situation was handled, this was an extremely unpleasant experience. The food also wasn’t great for the price. We will not be returning.
