Outback Steakhouse 6007 East State Street, Rockford, IL 61108

"Bathroom wasn't the cleanest but the food was great!!!"

"We went for dinner last night for my husband's birthday and had a fantastic experience. I added our name to the wait list early in the day and called to see if I could request a table instead of a booth, they said it shouldn't be a problem. To my surprise our table was waiting for us. I didn't get the name of our waitress or manager, but they took care of everything and we had a wonderful celebration. In addition the food was delicious. If you are interested in a great place for a celebration, I highly recommend outback!"

"Brody Richardson, as the manager, drove my food himself to a catering order that was being facilitated by EZ cater. His exceptional service meant that my meal and clients were happy. Thank you again for such exceptional service. The food was excellent as well."

"This is a great place to take the family to. We went last night for an early Mother’s Day dinner. There were six of us. The host seated us right away. The waitress was friendly and checked on us often. We ordered their cheese fries as an appetizer. Everyone enjoyed them. There was a little too much pepper for my little one though. My husband had an 11 oz. sirloin, fully loaded baked potato, and macaroni and cheese. He eats his steak medium, it was cooked more medium-rare, but he still liked it. He also really liked the bread. My mom had an 8 oz. sirloin and coconut shrimp combo, French onion soup, and a baked potato with sour cream. Her French onion soup came out first. She said the soup would have been better with more bread and onions. She said her medium-rare steak was cooked to perfection! She also said her steak was very juicy and tender. My niece had adult size plate of chicken tenders and a double order of fries. My son had the kids chicken fingers and fruit. My niece didn’t leave many fries on her plate and said her chicken tenders were good. My son ate his fruit first and two of the chicken fingers. I had the lobster tails which were two 4 oz. tails. I also had French onion soup and a baked potato with bacon and cheese. The French onion soup was good, but needed more bread and onions. The baked potato was perfect and had a generous amount of bacon bits and cheese. The only complaint I have is the lobster tails were a little overcooked. They were a little chewy and tough. I really commend the staff for being so by kind to my nephew. My nephew is non-verbal and uses a wheelchair. He grabs at people sometimes. He turned his chair just enough and he grabbed at one of the male waiters as he was walking past. He grabbed a female waitress’s hand while she was walking by. She smiled and said, “he wants to hold my hand.” We turned him around so he couldn’t grab anyone else. Some people wouldn’t have been as understanding."

"Very impressed for a chain restaurant. Quality of food was above expectations and service was impeccable. My wife and I had the Sydney Shrooms as an appetizer. Fried to perfection and succulent when I bit into them. I ordered the lunch menu coconut shrimp. The shrimp were big and delicious, especially with the provided sauce. My wife had the soup and salad special for lunch. She enjoyed the house salad along with the two soups she had: French onion and potato. I tried both soups and I recommend the potato soup. We'll be going back here for sure. The food was good but the service was amazing. Way to go Outback Rockford! Coffee sucked.."
