We weren't expecting a lot since this is a franchise steak house, but the food was excellent. My wife had a filet and I had a ribeye. We both take our steaks medium rare which a lot of restaurants have a hard time doing (it is usually really rare or over cooked, no nice in between). Our steaks were perfectly... More

My family ate at this restaurant Saturday, May 11. Usually the food is good but not on this day. As a take out for my son I ordered a Seafood Mixed Grill for 15.99 he received a 2 oz. or less fillet of fish, 2 scallops,3 shrimp and 1/2 cup of vegetables. My husband ordered a fillet which was very... More

This Outback is usually a really good Outback. Sometimes be careful ordering medium-well steaks, you can get them overcooked. Service is always very good.

I have visited this restaurant several times during the past year and the staff is friendly, the service is excellent and the steaks I have ordered are always flavorful and prepared as ordered. For a chain, it is consistently good.

One of the better Out Backs, I've been to. The staff is always super nice and my drink is never empty. They even gave my nine year old an extra loaf of their bread to take home. The food is always above average and a decent price for what your getting. I'm almost full by the time the main course... More

It was not very far from our hotel but we picked this one instead of other near-by restaurants because we had a gift card for this one. It was worth stopping there to eat.

This is the first time I and my wife had been to an Outback Steakhouse. We have a relative who had been to an Outback Steakhouse and complained to us that their meal must have been "Cooked in Pepper" beause it was so peppery. We had steak and shrimp and BBQ Ribs. Not a bit of pepper taste to any... More

It used to be kind of fun to eat in the pub atmosphere and they had some rather good items on their menu. The last time we ate there it was very disappointing. But if you like this sort of place and aren't really picky about your food, it's OK.

Our daughter suggested this restaurant for a light meal, which surprised me. However, it turned out to be an excellent choice. We choice small salads with baked and sweet potato sides. The salads were just the right sizes and the potatoes were excellent. The young man who was our server was efficient, friendly and properly attentive without interfering with our... More
