Outback Steakhouse

Not the best Outback I’ve been too. I have gotten sick once, and the food has come out cold several times. On top of that, the building has a septic issue which makes a large portion of the sitting area have a foul smell. Improvements could be made for sure.

I’m celiac and told the wait staff and was clear about the severity of the disease. I ordered the ribeye with salad and mashed potatoes (all of the special gluten free menu). Went home sick and the next day tested our leftovers with a nima tester. Came back positive for gluten. Can’t recommend this place to anyone.

I have celiac disease. Eat here often and over the years have only gotten sick here once.

They have a large GF menu that is supported by the GIG. Fantastic Service! The waitress was incredibly knowledgable about the GF items and was very good with notifying the kitchen about the gluten intolerance. I had a Pina Colada, Grilled Shrimp on the Barbie appetizer, Filet and Lobster Tails with a dressed baked potato and house salad (no croutons, honey mustard dressing), and the Chocolate Thunder from Down Under. No gluten effects whatsoever. Very pleased with the selection and the speedy and knowledgable service.

They have a separate gluten free menu if you ask for it. There was a lot on it! The manager brought it out and was super friendly. He told me that when I placed my order, the whole kitchen would be notified so they could all change gloves and clean the surfaces to make sure there’s no cross contamination. However, my salad came out with croutons, so the message must have gotten lost. They brought me out a new one with a sincere apology. My meal came and was delicious. Thankfully, I’m only sensitive to gluten, so I was fine. I would have been a lot more suspicious of my meal after receiving croutons if I was allergic or celiac.

They have a great gf menu that covers all tastes. I had one of their chicken entries. Although it did have a bit more pepper on it than I would like, the baked sweet potato and fresh veggie side made up for it. Not sure if they have a separate gf kitchen, I find if they have a separate gf menu, the should be aware of the needs to be gluten free.
