I love the Outback Steakhouse. Its probably my favorite.Don't be mistaken that all Outback's are the same. The one in Kirkland is far different and supior to the Bellevue location. This one always has room, not long waits like some and the staff is great.

Bad Night with bad food
by robgray82
Horrible experience in one of my favourite chain restaurants.
The whole experience was horendous, the woman who recieved us was really rude to everyone i am suprised more people didn't leave. The waiter was amazing and the only reason i would go back. But based on the food it let the chain down. The Ceasar salad tasted like a bowl of salt. the steak was not cooked in the middle at all and I nearly commited the cardinal sin of returning the food.

Great

Wow, i'm really suprised at the other two reviews, i found Outback to be one of the best steak houses i've ever been to. And the main complaint is that the servers don't pay attention, i found that the opposite is true. It seemed like whenever i needed a refill on a coke, they pounced on the opportunity. Also, when having difficulty deciding on what to have, their servers are always very knowledgeble on what their specials are, and what suits your tastes.
Pros: Great, Food, Yum
Cons: Food is too good

Predictable; Fast Food Steakhouse
by Beeker425
You at least know what you're getting when you go. The food is decent, the serving sizes average. The service seems to be sliding. They're eager to greet you; but too frequently your server abandons you, or if closer to closing is trying to rush you along. Be prepared for the screaming kids that you expect at a mainstream restaurant. Overall, value is OK--it's not bad, it's not great. Peak hours can mean a 30+ minute wait. Is Outback worth a 30 minute wait?
Pros: ample parking, consistent meals
Cons: server inattention, long waits at peak
