They have a gluten free menu and I’ve had the chicken, ribs, and salads and haven’t had any problems.

It was horrrreible! Went in on a Monday night while driving through ft. Smith. The restaurant was pretty empty (now I know why). We were seated, then waited 10 minutes to be greeted, asked drink orders or anything to acknowledge we were there. Once we placed order it took another 30 minutes to receive our food. Once we received food (husband had hamburger with all the veggie toppings, lettuce, onion, tomato and I had the serloin with mashed potatoes and asparagus. Both ordered med rare. Burger came out very well done, and recieved 2 pickle discs, an onion the size of a quarter and about same for lettuce. My steak was fine but had the manager come tell me at 6:00 pm they had to wait “a long time “until the mashed potatoes were done, I opted for a bake potato, I could only cut/saw my way through the “baked” potato. The asparagus I didn’t eat, but hey it might be great for babies as it was mush on a plate. Trust me , do yourself a favor and go to Schlotski’s next door!

I had a wonderful experience taking my Father to outback steakhouse. My food was amazing as was the food of every other member of the family. Both my waiter Stanley and the manager made it so easy although the gf menu is a little longer than I have been accustomed to and the "thunder from down under" their signature dessert is gluten-free!!!

GF brownie! Also hard cider, but not on the menu. Standard steakhouse fare. Good salmon and mahi mahi. Steak fries are not GF.

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!
