They had a gluten free menu which was nice. I explained to my waitress that it was an allergy and she said she understand and would let them know. I got the Alice springs chicken and mashed potato’s and ceasar salad off of the GF menu. When my salad came it had croutons. I explained it was supposed to be gluten free and they brought me a “new” one. I’m not sure if I was just the same salad that they picked the croutons off of or if some other part of the food was contaminated but I was sick all night and into the next day. I would suggest people with celiacs stay away from this location. Allergies may not be taken seriously here

Update: We have been several times in the last year since my original review. I've been safe every single time, no matter the meal I order. We ate at this particular location a few months back and somewhere along the line, I consumed gluten, as evidenced by my quick body response. We went back a week or so ago and I had my staple (Alice Springs chicken) and an alcoholic beverage (of which I did copious phone/Internet research because I'm one of those that can't have distilled beverages if the starting grain is gluten-containing). I'm happy to say I was not cross-contaminated this visit and our waitress took excellent care of me. Outback is almost always a safe place for me to eat and instances of contamination are very few for me. If I'd gotten sick a second time here, I probably wouldn't go back.

After grilling the waitress, I can tell you that the following seems to be regular practice: gluten free food is prepped in separate area, separate containers of butter are used, grill space is separate or cleaned prior to cooking. I had a complicated order, which came out exactly right and was delicious as well. A good experience.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

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!
