I don't have the money to go to Ruth's Chris or something comparable, so for my money, Outback is by far the best. The wait staff is always extremely charming and friendly. The fo...

A chain is a chain is a chain. Good value, pleasant enough but better thanArnie Mrton's or The Palm? Please

Always There! 1/3/2003

My family are regulars here! Cannot beat the price for their outstanding Steaks! more

They should have stayed "Down Under" 12/19/2002

A great casual place to eat but far from deserving when compiling a top 10 list. A quality steak should be USDA Prime not USDA select. more

TOO TRITE 12/19/2002

I think that the Outback Steakhouse is an overpriced, under value steakhouse. The meat is not choice, nor is it that good in quality and taste. The food is way over priced and not cooked the way a true steak should be cooked. They take so much pride in they WAY they prepare a steak but not in how long it's cooked. They need to re-evaluate their cooking times and watch the flames better. The secret to a good steak is RO-TA-TION Pros: TRENDY Cons: EXPENSIVE more

Outback is mediocre 12/19/2002

I can't believe Outback is in the top ten. Arnie Morton's and Ruth's Chris is so much better than Outback. more

buyer beware 12/5/2002

Outbacks are ok but in our opinion they don't deserve a place on the top 10 best steak list. Maybe top 10 "blackened" list because every single piece of meat served at Outbacks is prepared blackened. I have had many discussions with their personnel over this and have suggested that they should warn customers of this fact....they still don't so when and if we dine there I specifically order "sans blackened." Pros: convenient Cons: over priced more

Out Right Terrible 12/4/2002

My first dining experience was not pleasurable at all. My steak was tough, I had asked for it Medium. It had no flavor. I thought that I'd give it another try. Same thing, uneventful. When I saw that it made top 10 it should be for the top ten places not to go to. more

Great Aussie Fun 12/4/2002

Outback has a great environment to go along with its Aussie style. You would never know you were actually in the U.S. when entering the steakhouse. The food is delicious and served at a great price. You can't beat their value and great taste!!!!! more

The Smoke House is better 12/4/2002

Outback is good for a franchise, but the Smoke House in Burbank is the best by far. It cannot be half bad when all of the studio big shots come accross the street for a bite after a long day. Pros: good appetizer Cons: Bad parking, little value more

Grizzle and fat syeaks, YUMMY! 12/3/2002

The outback in San Bernandino has to be THE WORSE steak house I've been to! Steaks were full of grizzle, fat,easy 1/3 was disposed off, the "blooming garbage", was cold, sauce salty. The drinks were watered down, so, if you want to ruin an anniversary like I did, take your mate to this dump! more

OUTBACK GARBAGE 11/20/2002

I WENT TO THE OUTBACK STEAKHOUSE IN THE S.F VALLEY WITH MY GIRLFRIEND RECENTLY AND IT WAS ABSOLUTELY THE WORST STEAKHOUSE THAT WE HAVE EVER BEEN TO. THE SERVICE WAS JUST DESCENT AND THE FOOD WAS JUST O.K. Pros: Good parking Cons: awful appetizers, Poor service, medium Quality more

The Top 10? - You're Kidding 10/23/2002

I've tried this chain a half dozen times. The food & service are OK (for a coffee shop) at best. The meat is processed beyond belief and those cutesy Aussie names don't make up for the lack of taste. I have no idea how this made the top of anything unless your readers are comparing it to the Sizzler. more

$12 Steak, $2 Beers YES! 10/20/2002

I have never had money to spend on trendy overpriced locations regardless of their reputations. OUTBACK meals are certainly sufficient, those Beers are huge, and the atmosphere is always kind and expedient. Prices are LOW by what else I've experianced, I"VE NEVER HAD A BAD ENCOUNTER. I sugest early happy hour arrival for quick seating as most location ALWAYS fill up quickly, particularly any normal holiday or ocasion,and the dinner hour. Pros: attractive, clean, well staffed, quick, most areas,convinient Cons: easy acsess, crowded, peak hour waiting, walk up resv only more

Good food, good beer, good atmosphere 8/30/2002

We have not had a bad experience at Outback. We're very picky about steak, but have only had to send it back once in all the times we've visited. The food is always fresh and cooked to order. Perhaps the reviewers who posted a bad review had a bad experience, but we've never had one. And we go frequently. more

Terrible! 8/13/2002

I agree with robotan the last poster. This place is awful. I asked for it medium rare, so I expected medium at most. It was practically past well done. It tasted awful! They call this a steakhouse? They should call it a suckhouse. Nothing there would make me go back. Unless I had to use the bathroom. Pros: they had restrooms, they were open Cons: awful food, awful service more

the worst steak 8/12/2002

I went there only once and would never go there again. The steak was as chewy as a tire, and it was tasteless. Most of the servers were like college kids, thus irresponsible and untrustworthy. A good steak house would serve steaks rare if the customer requests. Outback couldn't serve it rare when I ordered, I think that means their meat is not fresh enough to serve it rare. Pros: kids friendly Cons: Bad Service, Awful Food more

Great Sirloin Steak 8/10/2002

Best sirloin steaks in the world! Fine steak accompanied by a fresh garden salad and excellent salt-rubbed Russet baked potato. Pros: Great sirloin steak, excellent value, good side dishes Cons: No reservations, lackluster bread more

"Big dollars, little food" 8/10/2002

You know, it's a wonder what some people consider giant portions and good value. The ones that say that about this place must be confused with somewhere else. Really, what they need is smaller plates to make the meal look larger. Also why would anyone want to eat a steak that is basically fried on a flat grill as opposed to one that has been mesquite grilled or charbroiled to perfection as a good steakhouse would do? Talk about sprinkling a boat load of seasonings on a piece of meat to give it flavor. That's what they do instead. $80 to feed a family of 3? Forget it, I'll BBQ good steaks at home for a fraction of the price. Pros: Ausie Theme, Trendy Cons: Price to food ratio, Too crowded, Mediocre food more

Owner Message

  • Inspired by the adventurous spirit of Australia, Outback Steakhouse has been an innovator in the restaurant industry by creating bold, iconic flavors served in a quality casual environment.

Editorial

  • In Short
    Boomerangs, Aussie flags, kangaroo portraits and faux aboriginal art honor the homeland's wilderness, but Outback delivers a polished version of rusticity with varnished blond-wood booths with matching wainscoting and casually uniformed waitstaff. Besides more than a half-dozen cuts of steak, diners can pick from large-portioned entrees like ribs, chops and shrimp or chicken "on the barbie." The Bloomin' Onion, a large onion dipped in batter and deep-fried, is an appetizer with a following.
