Outback Steakhouse

They have a separate GF menu which was very promising. Staff was knowledgeable and friendly but our GF dish showed up with grilled shrimps on a piece of buttered wheat toast. The staff asked if we could eat the shrimps if they just removed the toast and we said we, sadly, can’t. They ended up remaking the whole plate for us which was nice of them but our Celiac son was disappointed and hungry watching everyone else eat. Kitchen miscommunications happen and just an example of restaurants not used to handling celiac safe GF requests. We’re not too upset about it but just be extra aware of what’s on your plate!

The staff went above and beyond to try and accommodate my GF needs. They placed foil on the grill to grill my chicken and everything. The downfall though was I ordered the Allison Chicken off the GF menu but the head chef plated me up bland chicken with melted cheese. No sauce, no bacon, no mushrooms. Reasoning was they contained gluten yet all that was listed on the GF menu. I did not get sick and I am grateful that the staff did what they could to keep me safe. But use caution when ordering from the GF menu as it might be outdated.

Celiac friendly?

No

Went there last night as their website goes on an on about how careful they are...and I am a celiac so I need them to be careful.

Ordered strictly from the GF menu. My GF salad had a crouton on it. I noticed, they didn't. They swapped it out once I pointed it out. Amazingly, I didn't get sick. But I'm definitely hesitant to go back.

great ribs, and very knowledgeable and friendly waitress

Great experience, huge selection of gluten free options, including a majority of the menu.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

In years past, we came here often, but we have gotten sick the last three times running, and have now sworn off the restaurant. Staff didn't know what gluten was and made us feel picky/rude when we tried to explain that cross contamination would make us sick.

This has been one of my go to restaurants to not get sick. We went today and I spent an equal amount of time in the restaurant as in the bathroom, if you get my meaning. So disappointing. I informed them before leaving that I had been glutened. Didn't blame them, but explained again about cross contamination. They were polite. Just a bummer, but my fault, I'm the one that decided to trust them.

This is my favorite go-to steakhouse. They are very attentive to detail and are trained in serving folks who require g/f. Never gotten ill after eating there. Love it that I can have dessert there too. Thank you for caring, Outback. We love you!

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!
