I love going to the Outback. Personally I try to avoid going during dinner rush and on weekends just because I know how busy the kitchen can get!! But that’s just a personal preference. Our server was knowledgeable and friendly. Ask for a gluten free menu when you’re being seated. Plenty of options (see pic for the menu) and have them flag your order as celiac/allergy. If you have room, make sure you order a Chocolate Thunder Brownie (gluten free and amazing)!!!!

I’m celiac. I have ordered take out and dined in and had good experiences. For dine in, the staff brought my food separately from non gf food. Staff was super knowledgeable and there is a specific GF menu. For take out, it was super easy to order over the phone. My food was packaged separately and labeled. No bread in the bag either !

Awesome GF menu, I have gone many times without having any issues with cross contamination. Great options and quite a few items to choose from, they also have GF dessert! And they have Redbridge beer :)

I have gone to this location multiple times and have not gotten sick. The wait staff is very familiar with gluten free protocol.

Decided to try outback since there were good chain reviews, but the service and food quality here was lacking. They did offer a GF menu, but options did still feel limited. I got the sirloin steak, baked potato, and a house salad. Steak was cooked well, but bland. Baked potato was drenched in butter, which I was not expecting. No burger options for GF.

My husband got normal, gluten filled food, and it was also sub par. We thought it was funny that his burger bun was falling apart as badly as GF buns do! I had little pitty for him lol

We got the chocolate thunder down under dessert, which was yummy, but very very rich.

All in all, it was over priced for the quality of food we got. I did not have a reaction, so good on that front.

AMAZING! My husband and I ordered out and I put on my order celiac just to give them a heads up since I did order a salad and a couple items that could come in contact with gluten. They went above and beyond! They not only made sure that nothing with gluten was on or near my food, they packed my items in one bag and marked it with an allergy note and then packed my husbands items separately and when they brought out our food they even double checked that everything was okay that was in the bag!

ordered from the gluten-free menu (filet mignon & lobster, a house salad w/ no croutons and mashed potatoes). house salad came with crouton crumbs on it. when i asked a waiter if they could fix it for me and i pointed out the crumbs and how it looked like the croutons were put on and taken off, they tried telling me that the workers change their gloves every salad and that they "didn't do that", but they brought a new one anyway. the owner even came over and said the same thing. did not feel safe at all eating here. the lobster was really good but i was pretty upset with the salad experience.
