Outback Steakhouse

Ordered the shrimp appetizer with no toast and asked for mashed potatoes instead. They said it would be an up charge, which is fine. I mentioned I was gluten free. The waiter came back to confirm, and I told him again that I was gluten free and specifically said no toast or bread. The shrimp came out plated directly on top of the bread. I gave the plate back and they asked me why I didn’t want it. They did offer to remake it, but I told them no because the whole place seemed a bit chaotic anyway.

Did my usual online research about the official gluten free ideas about gluten free then girded my loins to actually eat at this specific restaurant. I was delighted to get a paper copy of the "official" gluten free menu after asking for it but was a little worried because I had three different servers take my order and one of them brought out a platter of brown bread and butter. The manager on the floor did come to my table and reassure me that my allergy (yeah, not an allergy but experience taught me not to explain my condition is a disease) was being dealt with seriously. He made me feel safe food wise. However, the separate gluten free menu (as usual) didn't have prices on it and I ended up arguing about the bill. I ordered Alice Springs Chicken (YUM) with two sides. One of the sides was Tasmanian Chili and had a 3 dollar upcharge. Manager Dude removed the upcharge from my bill. Yay. But it kinda spoiled my experience.

My company wanted to order us a holiday lunch. We order with outback. My food was marked gluten free and put in its own bag. It was a great experience.

I went there for dinner with my boyfriend and explained to our server that i had celiac disease. He came back with a gluten free menu with a variety of options, i felt so comfortable eating there and my dinner was amazing! he explained to me that they take it very seriously and that he will explain to the cooks and write an extra note. It was an 100/10 experience for me.

I was on a trip to Splash Lagoon with family and was very hesitant to eat here as I get sick at one closest to where I live. I ate here with no issues! I got the wedge salad and loaded baked potato. The staff was knowledgeable and helpful!

This place was awful from our walk in to our overall experience! First thing when we got there the hostess told us that they only had one table available by the bar, but when I looked around only a few tables were occupied and mostly by the bar. She went on to instruct us that all the other tables were dirty!! My husband did not want to create a scene so we sat down and decided to order simple and had burgers mine with no bun. I did not get sick from the food or at least not yet but I will never return to this restaurant!! Very sad that the manager didn’t even try or get someone to clean off all those tables including wait staff!
