We haven't been here in a while, but went for their Veterans Day special. My husband had a boomerang burger and fries and loved it! It also cans with an appetizer and dessert. The potato soup was amazing! He had to take the cheesecake home because he was so full. I got the boomerita margarita flight... so good! The I had the sirloin and grilled shrimp with a giant baked potato. Everything was excellent! The wait staff was friendly and efficient. The manager came around to ask if everything was all right, which is a nice touch. The dining area is well-lit and pleasant. And my husband enjoyed watching football updates, as we sat in the bar area. We will be back!

Fast service and excellent food (perfectly cooked). The staff was very attentive. We usually go to Texas Roadhouse, but I think this is our new favorite steakhouse in the area.

Came in for dinner and overall I enjoyed the experience. I wasn’t impressed with the appetizer menu change. I was definitely looking forward to having Ahi Tuna as an app. I ordered the new Spinach & Artichoke Dip instead. The chips were extremely salty but the waiter Max had no problem getting me chips minus the salt. I probably would have just used the bread for the dip but I was never brought bread or offered any. Maybe I was supposed to ask?? For dinner I ordered a 6oz Filet medium rare, rice, and sautéed mushrooms. The steak was cooked to order but it definitely lacked flavor. Over all my waiter was attentive but I had a couple of togo containers but wasn’t given or offered a bag to carry my items in. I asked a hostess and she kindly brought me a bag and togo silverware which I appreciated because I’m traveling.

So we went to the outback in Harrisonburg VA.
Ordered a cobb salad no eggs which was fine. Waitress said she would get them for me. She never returned with them. The other person had a salad wedge. The small bowl that they brought to the table with honey mustard dressing had a little issue, the bowl at the bottom had dried ketchup in it. So the dishwasher needs to pay attention. Waitress spend way to much time taking people's orders she needs to take the order and move on. I get it, it's hard to find help these days but in a college town you better make sure your good with the help. The manager was awesome he came to the table we had a conversation and it was a good one. Remember if you don't tell the manger what's going on he cant fix it. Will try it again some day. Great deal on the Togo deal.
