Outback Steakhouse

"This was one of the worst experiences I've had at a restaurant. I ordered the salmon with Cajun sauce and shrimp but due to a mushroom allergy I requested no mushrooms and as the food arrived there were mushrooms on there and they said that it could not be removed because the sauce is prepared and requested for me to remove the mushrooms by hand. I just went with a different order since they were unable to accommodate that request of no mushrooms. Then we waited almost triple the time from the first order for the next order and or waitress was non existent after that and we no longer received any service until the end of our meal. No check ins or water refills."

"Appetizer (blooming onion flower) came out quickly! Friendly staff- especially the manager! Only problem is they never brought our 2 orders of fries that came with the meals, when reminded- still only one order came out and barely warm and they just weren’t good fries. The sirloin on the other hand was SO amazing! Along with the chicken! Asparagus were good as well but nothing special about it. I had a watermelon alcohol drink and boy was it too strong! Sent it back but friendly service! Mac and cheese has a bit of a peppery kick but good!"

"First time a this location. The service was great. We got the hot honey shrimp and they were amazing. Forgot to take pic before eating. The boys loved their burgers. I wasn't happy about my steak it was chewy and burnt. The manager was nice he gave us a $20 gift card for next time."

"Kudos to the team at Outback, especially the manager (Jim), for providing us with a wonderful experience early Sunday evening (9/24/23). We popped in around 5pm; firstly because I had a craving for red meat, secondly to honor our departed parents' 68th wedding anniversary. It had been a long time since our last visit to Outback, which means there were some new items on the menu. The second we approached the podium, Jim exuberantly welcomed us, and the hostess beside him seated us immediately. Within seconds our server (Ivy) reached our table with waters, followed shortly after with their bread. The Sydney 'shrooms were flavored perfectly, plus they came out hot. The bartender brought us our drinks since Ivy was busy (kudos to the bartender for stepping up!). We ordered a couple cocktails to toast the folks (smoked bourbon & orange something and Huckleberry Hooch Moonshine). The bourbon was so smooth and the moonshine was tasty going down. Jim popped by our tables a couple times, asking how things were going. He was such a personable and outgoing guy, his welcoming vibe put & kept smiles on our faces. The prime rib and Filet Sheila were excellent. We "lost" Ivy for a bit towards the end of the meal, but it did begin to get busier. There was a table beside us that went five minutes w/o anyone approaching their table. Jim had just delivered food to another table in our area, I flagged him down to say something about the ignored table (I didn't want the customers to give a bad review for being ignored!), he was gushing his thanks. He immediately dropped off his empty tray & approached the customers, apologizing profusely for the wait. Dessert was the caramel cookie skillet. Oh. Em. Gee. Mouthwatering! If you haven't checked out Outback, or it has been awhile, give the Tempe Southern Ave. location a go."

"I had a fantastic dining experience at Outback Steakhouse! The food was delicious, and the steak was cooked to perfection. The service was friendly and attentive, making it a memorable evening. I'll definitely be returning for more tasty meals!"
