What People Are Saying About Outback Steakhouse

Featured Review

In Short – Boomerangs, Aussie flags, kangaroo portraits and faux aboriginal art honor the homeland's wilderness, but Outback delivers a polished version of rusticity with varnished blond-wood booths with matching wainscoting and casually uniformed waitstaff. Besides more than a half-dozen cuts of steak, diners can pick from large-portioned entrees like ribs, chops and shrimp or chicken "on the barbie." The Bloomin' Onion, a large onion dipped in batter and deep-fried, is an appetizer with a following.

Red Lobster of steakhouses

It is what it's supposed to be. The same as Chili's, Applebee's, etc. You know it's not a real steakhouse when you go, so at least they don't hide it.

I think I've been here before, it's called Fridays or Chilis or Applebees or something like that.

The foods not even Australian - where's the vegemite and eucalyptus?
