Outback Steakhouse 830 East I-10 Service Road, Slidell, LA 70461

"Went here for lunch. Ordered a ribeye, loaded baked potatoe, cesear salad, and a strawberry lemonade. The food was delicious."

"This is 2 separate visits to this Outback Slidell, LA. The 1st was a weekday lunch, 2nd weekend dinner. Neither were good experiences. Lunch was salad and steak for 2. The rolls were like cardboard, not fresh or warm. The salad was drowned in gobs of blue cheese dressing, I didn't ask for extra. I tried to pick out some lettuce but gave up when I noticed the mushy-rotten cucumbers in the salad. The steaks were awful. We both got filets, medium rare. Mine was cooked well and my daughters was completely raw. There were only a few tables, the waiter had disappeared, I waited for several minutes and waved down the hostess. She brought a plate, took the steak back to the kitchen, where they microwaved it instead of cooking a new steak correctly. It looked awful. My daughter ate her fries and bread for lunch. I also had rice that was cold and tasted like undercooked Uncle Ben's minute rice. The manager came around and I told him, the salad would have made me sick and neither steak was cooked correctly. He even said the microwaved steak looked nasty. He apologized and said this was not acceptable and offered gift cards. I didn't want a free lunch, I just wanted lunch. Visit #2 was a month later, dinner, weekend. Busy but no wait, 5 people. The steaks were again ruined. This time none were cooked to order, everybody got well done. But the problem was the thick layer of too salty-really spicy cajun seasoning heaped on the steaks, that no one ordered. I've never had spicy seasoning on an Outback steak, it might have been ok if it was just a little, there was a layer. The kids refused to eat it, the adults couldn't either. 2nd time we left and had to get food someplace else."

"Visited here from out-of-state with family that lives locally, and I'm very pleased with the service we received at this location. I honestly think it's better than the one I have back in my area. Although we had a rotation of four different servers attending to us during our visit (the reason for that was unclear), they all were excellent. The food was great as well; I got the Queensland Chicken and Shrimp Pasta. All in all, it was a great experience. I'll definitely want to eat here again the next time I'm in Slidell."

"I’m actually a rewards member. Every time I dine in at Outback in Slidell I sit at the bar. If Rachel is working, I know my drinks are going to be perfectly good. She will also go out of her way to make sure my order is placed correctly. Rachel is very courteous and always respectful."

"Didn’t plan on a special celebration for Fourth of July but decided to stop at Outback for some appetizers. Our servers were so friendly and accommodating. Good experience dinning here. The onion bloom and coconut shrimp was my favorite. I also enjoyed the chopped salad."
