What do you think of Outback Steakhouse?

When they brought out the porterhouse, I thought they made a mistake and brought out a pork chop. That steak was sooo thin. Definitely NOT a quality piece of meat.

As a former Military Veteran, I’m appreciative of Outback Steakhouse offering a complimentary Bloomin Onion and Soft Drink on Veteran’s Day.

Try Long Horn Steak House it never disappoints. 🏆

Awesome I like how you edited the video and Derek narrated it perfectly making me laugh 😂 great job yall

I love the bread and fried mushrooms. The potato soup is so good. The burgers are very good as well. I’m glad you pointed out the salt. It was overwhelming.

I like how you keep it 💯. Thank you!

Years ago, when Outback first opened I think they tried to be more on the competitive side as a mid- range price restaurant. I can’t say I’ve ever eaten at one, but know a lot of people have and use to enjoy it. I had to laugh At Derek’s Strawberry Salad without strawberries… what the heck ?!?! Thanks guys for another great review! Always a pleasure!

Chain restaurant , over salted, sirloin is often not a pleasant texture. I’ve eaten twice there, food was very disappointing- I agree with your assessment

Ah, Outback - where they used to be a good value. Now it's a salt lick steak joint. Thanks for the excellent review!

The Melbourne Porterhouse is actually called a T-Bone Steak here in Australia. I once had a Thai meal that had so much salt that it was inedible, we didn't complain as the meal only cost a few dollars in Thailand and we just went elsewhere. You need to call the cooks to account for spoilt food, you are paying enough money to warrant it.

Went to outback just a couple days ago, it had been years since I had eaten there. Whole heartedly agree with your assessment, steak was overcooked and potatoes were almost inedible because of the salt. My house salad was, ok…

The French onion soup is probably the only thing I would dare to order lol

I love your reviews. Wishing you a Merry Christmas!!

I’ve always done well at Outback because i have a basic order: petite med-rare filet (always more lean/tender than med strip), house salad (lots of good toppings) & loaded baked potato. Still less than $30. A comparable meal at a steakhouse would be $50+.

Happy to see you 2 back!

1st time watching and I enjoyed your honesty! I subscribed 😄

Love the commentary ❤️🎅🤶👍Happy Holidays..

I have not been to Outback in 5 years. Before that I went at least twice a month. My reason, well it was Valentine's day, (evening). Waited 90 minutes to be seated, then over an hour for the food. Then the food was cold like it had been sitting out for over 30 minutes. Last, but not least they were out of 3 of the main steaks when we ordered. Now they did comp the meal. I still tipped the waitress as I watched her working her tail off. Both my son and daughter worked there while in college so I know how important it is to support these people working so hard. Besides it wasn't her fault. She actually teared up and thanked me. But in all honesty I would rather have paid and had an awesome experience.

I went to the Dollar Store and purchased the most expensive thing I could find.

You have to get it medium rare to enjoy a good cut of steak. Remember that steaks keep cooking even after they're off the grill. By the time you get that "medium" steak to your table it's well done.

Porter house steak looks great !! Thanks for the great review on the Outback !! 🥰🥰🥩👍

I haven't been to Outback in over 10 years. I loved their prime rib with horse radish sauce. I seem to remember the prices being less than half those prices.

I'm gonna go just to order the bloomin' Shrimp and the Onion soup! Wow..thanx for this video!❤️❤️❤️

😅😅 great assessment! Thank u for always being straight up guys!

Thanks for your opinion. New Outback opened in my neighborhood was going tonite to try. Nevermind I will cook my own.

i really enjoyed the voice over so much better great work

Henderson just opened a Texas Roadhouse Steakhouse. I used to eat at one in Aurora Colorado on a regular bases. I love that place 😎👍🥩 You and Catherine should try it !

I haven't been to Outback in years. It looks like I won't be going back. Thanks for the review.

I personally would have loved that strawberry salad because I don't like strawberry salad 😄 Those shrimps looked tasty and greasy lol Thank you guys for a fun Outback Experience! 😋👍🥳🍤

You totally validated how I feel about Ourback. Salt with a side of salt. I stick with Texas Roadhouse. Never had a bad experience there.

I do agree with the salt thing. The bloom breading, whether it be on the bloomin onion or the bloomin fried chicken, etc, is very tasty but also very salty at times. Sometimes things are over salted and over peppered in the kitchen such as the chicken on the barbie or a steak.

You should try Texas Roadhouse, I have one near me and it is usually so busy you can not even get a parking spot. A friend and I tried to go one night and there was nowhere to park, and a line to get in, so we went somewhere else. They must be good, because it is packed every night after 5pm, I go by there all the time and the parking lot is always full.

The first Outback Steakhouse I ever dined in was in Seoul, South Korea. The food was fabulous, that bread was TO DIE FOR. Their Down Under Rita was THE BOMB with Grand Marnier to compliment the Premium Tequila in this tasty cocktail.

I like your live reviews instead of the voice over Live gives the viewer the sense they are there, and it feels more personal. Yet its one persons opinion.

This place is Bloomin Nuts!

I have only had the blooming onion there. Only because we heard the rest of the food was not good. I buy a whole rib eye for $116 on sale this week, choice and carve my own. I guarantee it will melt in your mouth when John cooks it. I will not pay those prices to be disappointed. Oh and yes I got it at Kroger's. Save your money folks. I love you guys. Have you done Texas Road House, someone is sending me one for Christmas. Ugh I already have high anxiety that it won't be good. lol I love you guys appreciate your channel. Love hearing about places here in Vegas. Yes I live here also.

So today I watched you go to Prime at Bellagio and now Outback. I went to Outback once and needed to run to the bathroom afterwards, lol. For my upcoming Vegas trip I'll probably skip Outback and choose Prime.

When Outback came out in the early 90's it was a treat to go there and it was always packed. They've been on the decline for several years and I'm surprised they're still around but they're making it.

Go to "Longhorn" I think you'll have a better experience. And that will be a really good battle of the family style steakhouse.

Ate at Outback Steakhouse not too long ago and was very disappointed. Only thing I liked was the blooming onion.

I love their seasonings, homemade dipping sauces, and salad dressings. My favorite items to get are the hot Kookaburra wings with spicy ranch dipping sauce, ribeye steak with tiger dill dipping sauce, loaded baked potato, and a Caesar salad. Outback food is very salty but in a good way. The next day after eating there, I have to chug tons of water from being dried out from the salt content. "No Worries, Mates"

Good morning Derek and Catherine. I love the Outback Steakhouse. Who doesn't? I believe my favorite is of course the Porterhouse. with the loaded baked potato. or alternatively perhaps those parsley mashed potatoes.

We go to our local Outback here in Louisiana and we like it. Food is really good.

Breaks my heart seeing you and Catherine in a chain restaurant. Nothing sadder than a restaurant over grilling one of the finest steak. Porter House. Love your Las Vegas restaurant / buffet videos. You two are awesome.

The bloomin sauce is so delicious!!

I thought Catherines breakfast sammy challenge looked tastier than the O.B. items Thanks for sharing another great vid.

We usually just get the 12 ounce ribeye. Fills me up and it's delicious. Results restaurant to restaurant may vary.

Thank you for reminding me why my hubby and I never went back after one of THE WORST eating experiences EVER! This restaurant sucks!

The food looked amazing.

I sense a bit of sarcasm in your voice over LOL

I don’t understand why they went to Outback. It’s like saying “Hey, let’s go to McDonald’s and order the most expensive hamburger and expect it to be fantastic.” 🤷🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️🤷🏻‍♂️

Haven't eaten there in well over 5 years way before all this rapid inflation stuff started. I had noticed that the Outback I went to in MD (for work travel) looked like it was holding on to the price point for the Sirloin. Instead of raising the price for a reasonable quantity of steak, they preferred to trim it down to to keep the entry level price and price separations. I ordered medium rare as usual (in hopes of just getting a medium)...it was just 'ok' from what I remember. Since I'm a grilling junkie and nerd (and smoke a really high quality brisket as well), and can pull off what most of what these restaurants do at home for just 1/4 to 1/3 the cost of going out...I never really go to any steakhouses now. It's going to be interesting to see whether these chain restaurants will be able to survive without 95% perfection as the prices still continue to go up. Customer expectations are going to continue creeping up to with those prices. I probably would have sent that steak back and told them that I'm leaving and not to bother fixing it. Those of us that were used to dining at the rate of $50-$60 for 2 (without alcohol) and were ok with little occasional mistakes are going to need to get used to dining at the same places for $60-$90 (and now being expected to tip up to 25% instead of 20%) now with mistakes almost guaranteed every time...your video perfectly exemplifies my frustration with going out for dinner now. We can afford to go out to dinner but we simply don't these days because the service and quality just isn't what it used to be.

I've always liked Outback. The bread is amazing and their wings are really good. They also used to have some of the best clam chowder that I've ever had. I'm sad they took the clam chowder off the menu. Your meal was definitely not worth $94 though.

I remember the Ugly Delicious episode on Steak. They went to outback after eating really expensive dry aged steaks, and its a really funny segment. They had to admit how good outback was for what you pay vs the really expensive stuff they had.

Derrick and Catherine you keep me hungry for food got go to outback

That should have been worth like $50. That steak looks sad~

I love Outback. The location between Harrah's and Venetian I have ate at many times

I’ve never eaten out at outback I don’t intend to, but I hate the food taste too salty just messes up at dinner or lunch for the person there. Thanks for the assessment. Appreciate you bringing us along.

Our Outback is hit or miss with a lot of misses. Like you and Catherine talking to the camera rather than a voiceover.

6/30/22 Outback Orlando I drive, won't be back

I've been at outback steakhouse many many times out in Springfield Pennsylvania where I reside and never have I had a meal that was overly salted or underdone and they're very courteous also!!

Texas Roadhouse has $10.99 steak specials. M-T until 6pm. The Bloomin' Onion and side horseradish at Outback is good. But when you see the grease at the bottom..you kind of rethink what you just ate. Good vlog.

I liked the way you edited and narrated this vlog....was still funny. My husband and I ate at an Outback years ago...never went back, guess it was too expensive for our budget. Everything you ordered looked good but the food at Chili's looked better. Too much salt in food causes high blood pressure.

Two videos in one day good work yall I never order steak at outback they always dry when I get them lol

I ate at Steakhouse ages ago. I only recall the onion. While I can still remember some other meals I had at that trip.

As a former head chef , I can tell you those steaks where at the very least Blast chilled , but I suspect Frozen , that is why they have no juice or blood , the freezing or blast chilling causes the meat too Dry out and hence they have no flavour .

We are going to Outback in a couple weeks and this review helps. Guess I will get a burger.

I think it depends what Outback you eat at and the skills of the chef. Quality ingredients can taste good to amazing depending on who is making the food. I would put their ribs up against anyone's when made right I have not found better and I have eaten many ribs. Their steak for a chain is pretty good. If you ever get a chance try Capital grille it's Darden companies flagship high end restaurant. Will spend a few hundred but the food is amazing. They bring 4 different breads to your table.

I used to love their steak, but In recent years however it has lots of tough grisle in them. I've given up and just get the Alice Springs chicken. The bloomin shrimp was good.

I prefer batter and sauce of the Bang Shrimps from Bonefish Grill. At Outback I order the potato soup and the blooming onion

For that kind of money, you can buy and cook prime steaks at home.

The food there is pretty good and reasonable prices. I remember growing up, it was rumored that they used kangaroo meat to keep costs down.

Omg. Now I want that shrimp!

We went to Outback 2 days ago...even though we had reservations the girl at the desk couldn't understand that we did...then she seated us at a table that wasn't cleaned...she came back and was apparently perturbed that we wanted it wiped off...the sever got our drink order mixed up...came by several times not asking if we needed refills...and the steaks ( rib eyes ) was half fat and gristle...will be awhile before we try Outback again.

Outback Steakhouse is overpriced. Nothingbut a gimmick. Excellent review.

the only place i ever sent a steak back

I work at outback and hate how salty our food is. When I prep the food I don't use as much salt, don't tell my boss though lol

I miss Outback we haven’t had one out here for a couple years now. The bread the prime rib with the house seasoning 😢

The sirloin and ribs looked good. That's what I would order.

ty for this video ive been there i liked the food

Thanks for the review! Maybe you can repeat this test at another chain restaurant and compare the results?

The alice springs chicken still the favorite and I always go with a pork chop dish when I know the steak is subpar. The ahimsa Tuna good and the coconut shrimp like butter.

My go to is Alice Springs Chicken, house salad with blue cheese dressing and an iced tea. Never had a steak there lol

it seemed the preparation was the issue ,over salted and missing a key component of the salad,aside from that thank u for going there for a honest review derek

Great honest review. Have you two ever tried Northwoods inn?

Where Im from the most high end steak would be from the Keg restaurant, and it would probably be in the 30-40 dollar range, so this to me is still very expensive. A medium steak is pink and warm, and those steaks where still pink, so I would be satisfied. But hey if you aren't, I would send it back at that price. just my opinion.

il love outback!! Primerib n ribeye are usually great.. fried mushrooms my favorite...

The petite filet rare is the only thing I get. Bread is good, House salad is good. Blooming onion is greasy but good also. Other places are better like Texas road house or Longhorn if like inexpensive steak. Better off buying quality meat from Whole Foods or Wagman and cooking it yourself. Or do what we do, just go to Morton’s or the Palm once or twice a year

The coconut shrimp is the bomb hands down potato soup os good if you catch it on a good day

It wasn’t worth it and the steak was overdone.

Texas Roadhouse is so much better for Steaks, Ribs, Chicken and not salty. Exactly, Outback salts everything heavily so you buy more to drink said a friend who worked there.. Outback in my area closed shortly after Texas Roadhouse opened.

I like Outback as it is nearby. For $15 bucks more per person average I love Texas De Brazil’s all you can eat and great quality

I like their surf & turf.

His eyes are always the same, no matter where he goes.....😂😂

Hello Derek and Catherine... You changed your video format. We liked when you talked at the table. It seems more inviting. Blessings to you both.

What camera did you use? GoPro?

I now make THE BEST STEAK I’ve ever had! 🥩😊 And $38 buys a lot of steak 🥩 However someone did give us a $50 Outback Steakhouse gift card so that’s why I’m watching your video. It was helpful. 👍

I like outback or Logan’s over most chain steak houses. Of course though with inflation and shortage of staff it’s just better to cook at home. Outback does have a special on Wednesday that’s budget friendly. I would rather go buy a nice steak with shrimp or crab legs from the store and cook at home.
