    service was prompt & our drinks arrived quickly. the blooming onion was a bit oily, which is expected. i ordered the kingsland steak & shrimp & requested the steak medium rare, but it was served well done. the restaurant had a pleasant ambiance, with very few guests at 20:30.

    Food was good. Service needs work. It was not busy when we were there yet our server did not keep an eye on our table. I watched him spend the majority of his time chatting with someone in back never looking our way. If he had looked our way he would have seen me waiving like hailing a cab to get his attention as every glass at our table was empty and had been for a while. It took a coworker to get his attention. We got our drink refills just as we finished dinner. Do better. I left 3 stars because the food was good.

    The best Outback location in the area. The service is top-notch, and the food is always perfect. This outback is much better than any other location in the area.

    We had an incredible experience at Outback from start to finish. The ambiance was a refreshing surprise, with a new, hip vibe that made the whole evening feel elevated. The food was excellent and exceeded our expectations in every way. Nick, our server, was hands down the best. He was attentive, friendly, and made the night even better. We will definitely be back again very soon.

    First, to be clear, service was great. The bartenders were attentive, polite, and did everything right. 5 stars to them. The food sucked. I know I’m eating at outback and don’t expect prime beef but my steak was a piece of whale blubber. I ordered it med rare and you can see how translucent and fatty it was. The veggies and potato were a mush mess. I don’t expect much but when I’m this let down, I’m sorry but I have to leave a review. A picture of my left over steak is below. Now to be fair, I did not complain and I did not return the steak. I got what I ordered and that was that. Had I complained, no doubt my bartenders would have returned with a new plate. I paid in full and tipped well. Just an honest review.
