I've never gotten sick here or at any outback location. The food is fantastic. I will say that sometimes this particular location seems to make mistakes with orders which I haven't seen elsewhere. So far they have not made a mistake with any of my food though but it happens consistently for other members of my family. The service also leaves something to be desired. Be sure to specify you're ordering from the gluten-free menu. I feel confident eating here as far as GF precautions

While we always let the waiter know that we are ordering for someone with celiac/allergy, I do not know what precautions they take in the kitchen. However we have eaten at this location twice now with zero issues and both times our waitress seemed knowledgeable on gluten free offerings. My daughter and husband who both have celiac always get a steak, baked potato, and steamed broccoli.

While Outback is known for being celiac friendly, this particular restaurant doesn't live up to its counterparts. Waitstaff was rude and flippant about my celiac condition. Against my better judgment, I trusted my past experiences with other Outback stores. In the end I was sick after just a few bites. I sent the food back and asked to speak to the manager. Not only did he not apologize or seem to care but he didn't even take my meal off the bill. This store gives Outback a bad name for an otherwise celiac friendly business.

This Outback did a really great job of handling GF. The waitress was very knowledgable. I would only encourage Outback to develop a nut free GF dessert.

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!
