Outback Steakhouse

We waited an hour with no food delivered. They ran out of ribs so we left.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Great selection of steaks and chicken all gluten free. Chips are not Gluten free cooked in same fryer. But plenty of other options mash potatoes, salad, veggies and bakes potatoes. Great sauces which are Gf as well. Staff had great knowledge

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Always a reliable option at outback. There gf menu hasn’t changed in about 15 years but they can always be trusted for a steak & baked potato

Thunder from down under, baked potato, ribs. We tested all of these with our Nima and all a success. Knowledgable staff, good food and visited a few times during our stay.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Almost always a safe choice while traveling. However, like another reviewer, I also have trouble with their salads. For that reason, I always order the same dish. Pricey, but a great, consistently safe meal on the road or for special occasions. Five stars for the Outback near Pigeon Forge, TN, who also had delicious gf rolls!

Very good service and knowledgeable server. Nice GF menu. Got chicken and a baked potato and everything was fine.

Service? A little awkward but overall good service. The food? Well... It was good while I ate it. I got the shrimp Caesar salad and specifically asked for no croutons and for it to be prepared gluten free. The waiter said "gluten free? Yeah." and seemed like he understood. I have been to other Outbacks and ordered this same item and had no problems, but honestly, I'm lucky I made it back to our hotel. Within about a hour of leaving Outback, I was sick. The last meal/food I ate was 6 hours prior to arriving at Outback so I'm certain that Outback was the culprit. Pretty sad as they do have a dedicated gf menu and apparently are trained on gluten-free awareness. I am honestly questioning how well all locations are trained or if some staff members are even trained enough to know the words "gluten free." My poor review is from the fact that I got sick . I understand cross-contamination (and have had no problems at other restaurants... Ones that don't even have a dedicated gluten-free menu), but I expect more from Outback's supposedly GIG-trained staff.

They've expanded their options even more and I couldn't be happier. Staff understands precautions and I have not gotten sick from here.

I have celiac disease and have eaten here many times over the last 10 years. Staff is very informed and the cooks are also very aware of the gluten issue. Great place to eat safely for celiacs.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Manager very aware of celiac and gluten free options. Separate gluten free menu.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I had the GF ribeye. It was obvious that they cooked the steak in aluminum foil. It was bland and tasteless. If this is how they cook gluten free then I would not recommend eating at Outback

Celiac friendly?

No

I was excited to see a dedicated GF menu. Waitress seemed to be knowledgeable with the GF menu since she gave it to me but I had to mention several times I was ordering from this menu and how severe my intolerance was and could not have gluten nor cross contamination. She never acknowledge me. My items such as my bake potato cake closed with topping separately but there had to been contamination because I later became very sick!!!! Be aware.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The staff was very knowledgeable and reassuring! Had a great meal and not an ounce of sickness! Definitely win! They even tell you about the separate area in which they prep.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

They were extremely careful with contamination and there are many options including dessert

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Manager was very accommodating and made sure I didn’t get sick with any of my many allergies.

Celiac friendly?

No

They were busy and very overwhelmed. My food was cross contaminated. Very significant sickness following my meal here. I have had successful visits here before, however it seems like this Outback is poorly managed and getting worse with time. I will not risk it again at this location.

My Pleasant Outback - Food took over an hour to get to our table...they didn’t cook the shrimp, wrong steaks presented as what we ordered. Stay away!

I eat here weekly they take allergy seriously. I have never gotten sick here. They also have a separate gf menu

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The server and chef took my celiac disease seriously and mentioned they make the salads in a separate area. They have a separate gluten free menu and are very clear about what does and does not have gluten. I've gone there multiple times and it's my favorite place in Duluth to get a steak.

Gf menu available. Absolutely love it!!!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Great steak! Get the garlic butter sauce on it!!!Good size gf menu!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Delicious! The waiter was knowledgeable about celiac.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Waiter Michael was very helpful, knowledgeable and mindful; he also notified the Mgr & chef. Grill was cleaned. Got Victoria’s filet mignon (no seasoning), house salad (no croutons) with balsamic vinaigrette, sweet potato, and chocolate thunder down under. All great. Asparagus is marinated, so I chose the house salad instead.

Ordered from the GF menu, salmon and baked potato with all toppings. Tested with my Nima and came back gluten found. Talked with Mgr and owner, explained that it could just be cc from spatula or shared cooking surface; they re-made dish with the salmon on foil and it tested all clear, GF! Great service and care! So appreciative that they genuinely worked to correct this and likely will employ this in future.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Ordered from gf menu. Knowledgeable wait staff, great Alice's chicken. My only concern was not having prices listed on menu.

They have a separate GF menu. I am not sure if there’s any cross contamination.

Celiac friendly?

No

Ordered a Aussie Cobb Salad from the gluten free menu and expressed my need for gluten free. Our food was delivered by the manager and my salad had croutons on it. I don’t send food back so I didn’t eat while my family was able to enjoy their food. My husband wanted to leave but I insisted on letting them eat since we waited over an hour (Saturday night) and the kids were hungry and their food was fine. The manager did offer to make a new salad and told me he would make sure it was ok for me to eat but I am a one strike and it’s out.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I eat here fairly regularly. They are always great about making sure my order is gluten free. Great service and food.

I eat here frequently and you have to confirm its gluten free but I have had no issues so far.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

CHOCOLATE THUNDER FROM DOWN UNDER!!! SOOOOOO good. The staff was amazing. They answered all of my questions and ensured my meal was 100% safe!

Great options on GF menu, a little less communicative when I said I had an issue than I like, but overall good experience.

Great service and wonderful tasty Wheat free Menu! Just ask and they have their own Menu for food allergies.

Celiac friendly?

No

Separate GF menu. Ate grilled chicken and broccoli and was glutened.

Waiter was very knowledgeable, but apparently, the chef was not. I had a steak, mashed potatoes and a salad. Told waiter I was GF, but still got glutened - bad.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Gf menu. Knowledgeable waitress.

I’ve eaten here 3x since diagnosis and have had no problems. Loved the dessert option!!

Celiac friendly?

No

That was expensive and awful...

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I’ve eaten here several times with no issues and no symptoms after. The staff seems well-trained and the gluten-free menu has many options.

Informed the waitress I was celiac and have gluten, peanut and soy allergies. She wrote it down and told the chef as well as checked all spices and sauce. Also was given a GF menu. I had grilled chicken, baked potato and vegetable. Was very good and had no issues. Will definitely return!

Went today for lunch - requested gluten free menu, no issues. Waiter asked if I wanted bread brought to the table since I was gluten intolerant. I said yes - my family members are bread lovers 🤪. Food was good.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Gluten free menu. Kind and accommodating staff.

Celiac friendly?

No

Tasted good, but I got glutened from the steak and mashed potatoes. Not worth it.

Look, it's an Outback. It's food is consistent with every other Outback you've ever been to in your life. The waitstaff is always very kind. The sweet potato is baked (boiled?) so much that it's watery, but maybe that's your thing! I eat it and enjoy it well enough. Their BBQ sauce is a 3 out of 5 if that matters to you lol

Celiac friendly?

No

My daughter ordered the Alice springs chicken off the gf menu and specified that she needed it prepared gf for celiac. She ordered mashed potatoes for her side. When the waiter brought it out the side was fries. We told him that if the fries were gf, it was ok as she would actually prefer fries. He said yes, the fries are gf and he had specified it to the kitchen. He had also told us he had worked there for a long time. My daughter had already eaten two fries when he came back to the table and told her not to eat them, he needed to check on it. He came back out and grabbed her plate and said he was wrong, they are not gf.

First time trying outback, they have a variety of gf menu items. I ordered the alice chicken with mashed potatos itwas really good! No reaction.

Celiac friendly?

No

Got sick twice even though I spoke to the manager and owner

Celiac friendly?

Yes

While I felt okay eating there were things not great about this location. First, parking was difficult. Small lot. 7 spaces dedicated to take away. My salad had very little dressing. I had the pork chop and baked sweet potato which were good. Not the best Outback... not the worst either.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

My extra sensitive daughter has had a great experience here both times. It is unnerving when the server doesn’t seem knowledgeable, but I could tell the last time that consult happened with the kitchen staff when she wasn’t sure. Good GF menu with several options.

Waitress and kitchen handed my son’s allergies (gluten, dairy, egg) just fine. Thank you Outback for being a place we can trust when home or away!

Celiac friendly?

No

Not celiac friendly, they brought out a salad with croutons on it and then just tried to take the croutons off and served it back to me with breadcrumbs everywhere.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Not much to choose from and the filet wasn’t as good as other places! No appetizers other than salad. Much better steak houses

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Great gluten free option just like other Outback locations. Attentive staff that is knowledgeable.

Food was fine. Delivery was slow-ish. Still no ribs

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Good food and service. Would return.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Our 9yo daughter is celiac and has been sickened at a different Outback location. She chose to eat at this Outback in Chico for her birthday dinner. Armed with our Nima we took her. The wait staff was knowledgeable and sent a manager to speak with us as well. We tested her steak and potatoes with the Nima and no gluten was found. She enjoyed her dinner and went home happy and healthy!

The staff here actually have a clue. I had a great safe steak dinner. They have a printed out gluten free menu.

Ordered the Alice Springs chicken as I had read that was a tried and true option. Ordered without bacon, came with bacon but was remade. Broccoli on the side. Thunder from down under dessert. All tasted great and no reaction.
