I've been glutened here twice, once in 2018 and once in 2020. If you're gluten free as a dietary choice you're good, if you're sensitive to cross contamination or have Celiac I would avoid.

Waitress was very sweet, but not very attentive. I ordered a Blue Cheese Pecan Chopped Salad with my meal after asking a lot of questions to determine if it would be safe for me to eat. I ordered GF dressing, a vinaigrette instead. When asked if it was GF, she said it was. It was not. Salad also had something crunchy on it under the lettuce. I started to have the telltale symptoms - puffy throat, itchy, etc. 🤦🏻‍♀ I caught it early enough to keep from using the epipen thank goodness! Very disappointed.

The first couple of times I ate there were great. After that, not so much. The staff including the managers are not knowledgeable. After having to return my food to be remade on 3 separate occasions because it contained gluten even after talking to my waitresses about it before ordering, I've stopped going. The food tastes good but when you have to eat after your table mates or their food is cold by he time you get a safe Oder, it's not worth it.

Phillip Morris had a gluten free girls back. He pointed me in the right direction on the menu and made sure all of my food was safe to eat. Staff like this make you feel safe to enjoy your meal without the nagging fear of getting served something you can’t have. I will definitely be back for excellent service.

I’m from out of state and our Outback closed so I’m always excited when I find one! I was diagnosed with celiac in 2002 - back then no one knew what gluten was and Outback was one of the first restaurants to offer a gluten free menu

Stopped in for lunch, their gf menu is pretty much updated/current (2023)

Server was knowledgeable about celiac and gluten free told me the chef will cook my chicken on foil on the grill

Had salad w ranch dressing, chicken on the Barbie , and loaded baked potato

I usually get the Chocolate Thunder from Down Under (gf brownie with gf ice cream) it’s sooooo good but it’s shareable size and I was alone…. I could eat it by myself but saving the calories so if you do go here save room for it so you can order!

The waitress's grandmother had celiac so she was very knowledgeable. My daughter ordered the steak and fruit for kids. Also she got a lemonade and vanilla ice cream. The waitress (Jill I think?) made sure the kitchen staff changed gloves and everything. She did not bring out bread at our request. Their GF menu was pretty large. I ordered a grilled chicken salad for myself.
