Outback Steakhouse

Normally I would trust an Outback, but felt that it was important for us to share our experience at this location since I noticed there aren’t many recent reviews. They do have a gluten free menu, and I have eaten at other locations and felt safe, but unfortunately we got extremely sick here. We told the waiter we had a gluten allergy and she was very nice and accommodating making sure that it was written down for the chef. They brought out our food separately, so it felt like it was going to be okay. I ordered the chicken with mashed potatoes, and my boyfriend ordered the shrimp and steak and mashed potatoes, all on the gluten free menu they provided us. Then, my boyfriend’s shrimp comes out on an entire slice of bread. My boyfriend doesn’t have celiac, but is very much intolerant and I have celiac so he has to be careful about what he eats. We personally had a really bad experience here with them handling our allergies, which is sad because I do feel like it could’ve been great. We both got very sick. I wanted to share this just in case anyone was in the area and relying on this information to choose to go to Outback - I’m not saying it will always be bad, but we had a very bad experience and hope to help someone else out there!

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!
