Outback Steakhouse Reviews

Great atmosphere, amazing staff and management, delicious food!! LOVE The Original Outback!! One of Tampa's greatest gems!

Always a great meal at the original Outback Steakhouse.

Consistently good food, interesting drinks, good service. Chain restaurant, not unique or exciting or local, but reliably good.

Great food and great service. The bartenders are super nice and accommodating.

We ordered through Door Dash, and the food was excellent! My husband's steak was well prepared. My chicken and shrimp pasta was DELICIOUS! The portions were perfect, and the price was reasonable.

Will order from here again.

Price, is up there. But the food and service is good. Have other places i prefer for a good steak. But overall not bad.

Recently visited for my birthday and I wish I could give it more than 5 stars! The food was amazing and our service was the best we've ever experienced! Zach was our waiter and he couldn't have been more upbeat and friendly he was so patient and answered any and every question. He made the experience for sure!

Always a great experience ask for Deanna she is a great waitress

Plenty of Great food, staff and wine/beer selection.

My visit was a welcome change in opinion as I have had a few poor experiences over the years. Our server was timely and brought fun conversation. The evening was pleasant overall.

It was so delicious. Prices are decent. Menu is similar to a restaurant in Jacksonville I liked.

I got the ribs and they were the best I've ever had

My filet I ordered was cooked perfectly and I never had to ask my waiter for a refill. Best outback in town.

I really like all the food here. Honey butter with their bread is delicious. Side vegetables are crisp and fresh. Same with the salads. I don't order beef but the chicken and fish are great.

Very good place to eat, if you don't mind serving yourself

Gift Card Fail! Paid $50 for a fathers' day "E" gift card, never received, was told that there's an IT problem... "we'll contact you within 48 hours..." Managers are unavailable, miserable customer service. Find a more honest restaurant!!!.... update 8/2, they contacted me and made it right. I'll give them another shot some day.

Food was good. Service was good. I wouldn't think twice about going back.

Really sucks it has changed a lot the stakes are so peppery you can't hardly eat them and the choice of meat is not as good as it used to be

Great service and the store manager was awesome! Will definitely be back

Our hostess outdid the food and the food was excellent.

It s packed during dinner time so call ahead! Food is great as always!

Food and service excellent!! Bread was not, hard on bottom from overcooking.

I love going to OutBack steakhouse The way time the serving time is on point the food is awesome I Envies for anybody to take the time out and go try out best OutBack Steakhouse In Tampa and the manager is wonderful outstanding lady Miss Davis running this Restaurant wonderful too me So don t just take my word, come and try it yourself

Went for lunch not busy. Service was slow even took longer for our food to be served. Had to return French onion soup twice tasted more like a light gravy than French onion. Seem like the manager on duty was no where to be found.

Yes by far this is my favorite Outback the Victoria cut broccoli well done it's a real treat we could have had it all all we had was the Victoria cut this time love you Outback always a pleasure no matter what state I choose this is by far the original

great deal on steaks here! i get their filet mignon or sirloin steak. a lot of times they have great deals on surf and turf!

Good food but gave me a rare pork chop when I ordered new well. They corrected it and was great.

Delicious food. The service is excellent! Great place to go to.

Great service in the bar area! Try Wacky Wednesday and get a 6oz sirloin with a side and drink for $9.99.

Amazing service, great food, great time with friends.

Restaurant was undergoing updates when I visited still very fast fun and good food.

Outback has not disappointed me yet! Everytime I'm in Tampa I make it a point to take the grandkids and we always enjoy it. I definitely will be back!

Great food, crowded usually. Too bad they don't have plans to expand (it is the original restaurant)

We had a large party, and the service was great and quick even though there were a lot of us. The food tasted good, and I was grateful we didn't have to wait a long time to get everything out.

Cons - We had a few dirty plates and silverware delivered, and the floor was very slippery. Any time I walked from the far side of the restaurant, through the bar and to the bathroom, I had to tread carefully for fear of slipping on the way. So be careful when walking along the floor or maybe ask to be seated in the dining area by the bathrooms.

All in all it was a pleasant meal and we enjoyed it.

The ORIGINAL Outback... how cool is that? They closed in Edmonton, one of my favorite places, so it was fun to visit. Food awesome, server was terrific!

My sister and I took my mom here for her birthday but I found that for my first time eating there the food was a little too salty for me they like their food though.

Good stuff for the price! The NY strip signature steak is their best steak. It s better than their prime rib. I wouldn t get the lobster. Outback lobsters are just about the size of a shrimp seriously! However, they have a deceptive picture in their menu making it look like it is a regular sized lobster. You will be disappointed if you get it. Stick to steak only at this steak house!!

An Australian themed restaurant and I went in search of blooming onions and were exactly the same I had wished for. The staffs are courteous and ambience is excellent.

Excellent food for the price. You don't even have to ask for refills for your drinks.

The Original, I've been going to this location since it first opened. Great staff, great service, best value, and perfectly prepared food.

Love outback but this particular one is not good. 2 times and 2 times spoiled mood. Very slow during lunch time ..... didn t put my rewards into my account. Palm harbor outback is the best !

Service excellent. Husband's fries were some cold, some hard like old and reheated. Wife's steak taco terrible, did not eat. Mostly grissle like pieces of steak trimmings that should have been thrown away. Gag. Will never go there again. We expected more from Outback. Would have given only one star, except server was attentive, friendly, and she deserves a 5.

Was great! covid 19 accommodations where on par felt safe and clean also the food was good and the staff was professional

Best service is definitely during dinner time ironically. Still one of my favorite steak houses!

We eat really well. Average price but it's worth it. Wide selection of meat, fish, soups and salads. Exquisite desserts.

Thanks for a great family lunch, food was good. Company was great... Mom enjoyed ..

We had a nice visit and food was delicious. The server did her best but they were understaffed for the busy Sunday. Nothing that will detour me from going back.

My favorite outback since the 90s! It's a consistent great meal and I love Victoria's filet. I hope that it's still there!
But I saw a man on the bus going to work and his shirt said.
Aussie Blonde ???
A desert? Hmmm.

I asked him what it was and he didn't know anything or what it meant on his shirt period. He said
Have a nice day. Dismissed I walked away. I was walking behind at the terminal and saw that it was a beer and I am sober....so no interest. I thought it might be a new desert lol
Nope but it's pretty entertaining that he was clueless and advertising for the place he worked at was odd to me.
I'm going to read a t-shirt especially when I love the place.
Too bad he was not present.
I admire the staff that serves everyone and knowledge is power and sells!

First my drink has ALOT of stuff floating in it, Bartender was great and replaced it. Second our steak was medium well and dry when ordered medium rare. Third i asked before ordering if the crab legs were pre-sliced, i was told laughingly no way we would not do that. Received crab legs that with pre-sliced notches which made them very dry not to mention the 1/2 pound of legs turned out to be 3 very skinny legs.

Crab legs were comped which was nice but the overall experience was not good at all.

Initially had a complaint which was very well handled by the owner. Kudos to customer services!

Always a great meal and exceptional customer service!

The service was great but the fish had been burned and when they brought out a new piece it looked like the grill had not been cleaned after the burn so the fish while not burnt was dark.

Bill makes the best calm chowder I ever tasted In my life. All outback should have him train other cooks in outback how to cook the soups all if his soups are delious

Always amazing. I am happy to report that I have not had a bad experience and I've been coming here for years. I love this place! Thanks for the great service!

Soup and salad. With s starter of shrimp dip. ALL good. Service was excellent.

Good food and great service. Good place to take the family where everyone can find something they like.

Meh. It is exactly what you expect in a chain establishment.

Food for our four person family tonight was way below the quality we expect. Dry, nasty, just yucky food that was similar to a Five Guys. Blah.

Great food great service and close by. What more can you say.

I love the Outback Steakhouse. We ordered the 4 course meal and I can't say enough about the service as it was top notch. The salmon was amazing as it was grilled to perfection, and the rest of the meal including soup, salad and seasoned mixed vegetables were the perfect touch, right down to the cheesecake for dessert. We left satisfied, not over stuffed.

It was ok nothing speacial was a bit disappointed used to frequent this location a lot in the past but quality has taken a dive need to step their game up what a shame

Edit: Nicole the manager reached out to me to express her apologies for our ruined night. I raised my rating but included my previous post. Thank you Nicole for making it right.

The food is great as always but our server Andrew was terrible.
We never complained, always said thank you, and I even switched my order because they didn't have what I wanted to order.
But yet Andrew made our table feel like the worst customers ever.
We got ignored, our drinks sat empty, and be only acknowledged us twice. He had three tables total and couldn't even refill our drinks.
Yet a 6 top tipped him well and he was all over that table making sure they were taken care of.

Very rich dinner despite the time we were served very good place to share in fla.

Simple request during non busy time not fulfilled. Auto one star review.
