Outback Steakhouse Food

On Tuesday 03/22/22 both my husband and I decided to grab something to eat. We wanted a nice steak so we went to Outback Steakhouse in Bluffton SC we waited about 15 minutes which is understandable because of staffing.

Once we got to our table we ordered fried mushrooms which we get everywhere we go that has it. Never have we gotten mushrooms that looked and tasted like it did. They look like it was already cooked and dropped back into the grease to be warmed up. We could tell that it wasn’t fresh because it came out to quick and it was old and gritty.

We waited for our waitress to come back but she was nowhere to be found. The guy that brought out my salad said that he would find her for me. We sent that back and ask to have it removed off of our bill which it was.

Our steak just sat in the back because it came out cold anytime you order a steak you want it hot and fresh that wasn’t the case. I order a bake potato and it looked like it was 2 days old. It was dark brown and hard on the outside and the potato was brown and stuck to the skin in the inside. My husband said it look like it was cook for a while. Overall a really bad experience with the food.

I also ordered a blackberry sangria and it tasted like it was made days ago and the pineapple wasn’t fresh because it was soft and not firm.

Returning to Outback wouldn’t be my first choice and I wouldn’t recommend Outback in Bluffton to anyone i know. Really bad experience

On March 19 we went to outback to celebrate our son birthday. What started out as a celebration turned into the worst dining experience we have ever had. I have to admit that Outback was not our first choice we had actually went to Pedro's, Texas Roadhouse, Posados Cafe and Beaux Jax, but all of these restaurant were crazy busy. Customers were waiting all...

Outback Steakhouse Take out meal, (2) filet mignon steaks

We have previously had wonderful takeout dining experiences. On our anniversary 12/1/2021 we had an excellent takeout dinner. We ordered basically the same meal, minus the dessert.

WE ARE EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED WITH OUR PURCHASE this evening March 21,2021. Check 161

2 Filet Mignon steaks, steamed vegetables, salad. $ 53.00 meal.

This was by far the worst steak we have had purchased from Outback. I was on time the steaks were dried out and tough. The steamed vegetables were no where near steamed. The website indicated baked potatoes were included with the Filet Mignon, no potatoes were provided. We would have ordered potatoes if we knew they were not included.

Desired outcome: Full refund, the meal was unacceptable. If this is not an option, please use your professional discretion.

Outback Steakhouse Quality of Steak

Bought a ribeye steak from Outback in Hollywood, Florida. As you can see from the picture below a third of the steak was uneatable fat and gristle. No human being can eat this garbage.

I had dinner with my family yesterday evening at Outback Steakhouse on IKEA Blvd. in Charlotte NC. Around 9:09pm I went to exit the restaurant but fell on a wet floor beside the bar. There were no Wet Floor signs. No one to help me get up besides my companion. The waiter at least apologized and said he’d get the water cleaned up. I struggled to my feet and...

Outback Steakhouse "Eat, Ern and Redeem" Account

3/12/22

To: Mr. Jim McVay

President & CEO Outback

Long story short: My girlfriend and myself and other friends eat at the Outback steakhouse in Clairemont Town Square, 4196 Clairemont Mesa Blvd, San Diego, CA., 92117 at least once or twice a month.

Last night when I went there with four friends I asked to apply the credits from my "Eat-Earn-Redeem" account - I was told they expired and thus could not be used - My complaint is about a week ago when I went there with my girlfriend and I gave them my number to use [protected]) they said I had credits to use but what we did instead we used the AARP 10% discount - HOWEVER, the waiter NEVER told me that the credits would expire in a few days, if I knew that of course I would have used the credits from my "Eat-Earn-Redeem" account. Thus I am requesting that you reinstall the credits I had on my account so I can use them on my next meal - again, my complaint is that I should have been advised by the waiter that if I didn't use the credits they would expire.

Hopefully you understand my complaint and grant me my request.

For your information last night we had a party of four at table #25 and the bill shows a time of 6:49 PM in and 7:53 PM out (3/10/22), 0132c, SvrCk:14 - total Gross check without tip was $198.50.

Looking forward to a favorable response,

Not sure why you cannot order a single thing anywhere without incompetent employees leaving food/products out or not preparing them as advertised or ordered. OUTBACK Steakhouse is no exception! I order 2 Outbacker Burgers today which come with American Cheese. On my lunch hour so I did the curbside and it was promptly prepared however, when you are missing...

Last night (2-14-22) I ordered delivery of a dinner from Outback. One last chance as prior 3 orders in last two months had been screwed up.. ordered Filet mignon, two orders of loaded mashed potatoes, as I always divide dinner for leftovers,. The potatoes which I paid extra for, were not loaded, but plain. The Filet was so chewy I could barely swallow it...

My wife and I went to Outback on 02/11/2022. We put our name on the list at 6:23pm and we told 20 mins. No problem we were seated at 7:05pm. That is no big deal I understand they were busy. Once seated we were greeted by our server Julianna W. She was outstanding by the way. We ordered our drinks and dinner. I ordered my steak Med. Rare however once I...

Outback Steakhouse Lobster Tails

Today is my birthday so I wanted lobster tails from Outback. We ordered curbside and paid for the food. When we got home, some of the items were missing. No sweet potato or requested steak sauce. The worse part was the lobster tails were HORRIBLE! All I could taste was the sand in the lobster tails. You can even see the sand all over the obstetrics tails. It was tasting lobster EVER! This is the worst service I have ever had and I will not be eating at Outback again!

My mom and I took my sister to the Outback for lunch yesterday. We had a gift certificate someone had given us so thought we would give it a shot. What a mistake. The blooming onion tasted like it was cooked in oil from a month ago. We ordered two burgers WELL done and my sister ordered the chicken sandwich. Our burgers were not cooked all the way through...

Outback Steakhouse gift cards

To:[protected]@buyatab.com Details
I am so glad to see that your customers mean so much to you. I have attempted to purchase your gift cards 3 times this year and one-time last year. So far, I have not been able to complete the order for reasons I do not know. I do know that you should not make an offer you will not support. I also know that we eat at our local Outback every week and we will be cutting back. There are other places we can go that do respect their customers and do honor their attempts to purchase .

Today my family placed a curbside order from the Outback in Cary NC. Our order was supposed to be done around 5:24. I noticed how busy it was when I went to pick up the order. I received a text at 5:22 to say my order was almost ready. I would not have been upset waiting 5, 10 or even 15 minutes. However, 30 minutes is ridiculous. Our order was finally...

I arrived at 6:48 pm and there was a 55 min wait for a table. Bar was almost empty so I ordered 2 burgers to go while my wife and baby waited in the car. We only waited 30 minutes but started eating in the car still parked at Outback. There was no heat (temp) from the burgers or fries. We both woke up that night with stomach aches. Very disappointed, we...

Outback Steakhouse Hours of Operation

The Findlay, Ohio, Outback Steakhouse has posted hours of operation that begin at 11:00 a.m. Several of us were waiting in our vehicles for the restaurant to open. The lights were on inside the restaurant. At 11:10 a.m. I went to the door and rang the bell two times with no one answering. Then I called the number only to get a recording to call during business hours or wait for an outbacker by pressing 0. I pressed zero and finally got a REAL person who stated that the hours had changed to a 12 noon opening time. Why does the outdoor sign still read 11 am? Why do they not share the hours of operation on the telephone voice mail, since these hours have only recently changed? Very poos customer service. I drove 17 miles only to find that I could not have lunch, and a 12 noon start would have made me late for future appointments! s.[protected]@gmail.com

Desired outcome: A proper reporting of business hours. Some type of compensation.

Outback Steakhouse Very Disappointed

My wife and I been coming to this place for many years. I order a Prime Rib Sandwich, came out cold. They did ask to heat it up or make me another one.. It took over an hour to get our food, so I decided to eat it. Couldn't wait was very hungry.
The sandwich isn't worth $14.99.. small and nor alot of anything on it.
Also we had to wait on the fries til after we finish eating our main course of meal so we took them to go..
