Vanessa our server offered exceptional customer service throughout our visit, very attentive yet not overwhelming. This is my 3rd time dining here, food is always on point. I'm a picky eater and they do their absolute best to accommodate me.

I had the pleasure of being served by Cedric at Outback Steakhouse, and I can confidently say he is one of the best servers I’ve encountered. From the moment we were seated, Cedric provided exceptional service with a warm and welcoming attitude. He was attentive without being intrusive, ensuring our drinks were always refilled and checking in at just the right moments. His menu knowledge was impressive—he gave great recommendations and made sure all our requests were met with a smile. Even during a busy evening, Cedric handled everything with efficiency and professionalism, making our dining experience truly enjoyable. If you're looking for great service at Outback, I highly recommend asking for Cedric. His friendly demeanor and commitment to excellent hospitality make a real difference!

I'm not the type of person to leave bad reviews, since I also work in the service industry. But our waitress was so rude, I was honestly shocked. Kristina M. took 45min to bring our blooming onion, and our steaks never came. After an hour and a half we finally asked for our food to go. She did not check on us, did not bring any refills for water. We barely saw her. We were not the only people in her section who were neglected. When we finally got her attention, she was extremely short and ignored us when we tried to ask for the check. If I could leave zero stars I would. Definitely not returning to this location.

First customers of the day. No one else in restaurant. First, the coffee was COLD, lunch steak special was …..funny? I was not looking for all you can eat lol,… but serving size was a JOKE. Service at 11 Am was HORRIBLE… had to continually ask for our server, he forgot to bring our drink, or check on us. Bad experience.

I've always had good experiences at this location, but I must say my most recent outing was memorable. The food was great. Our server Cedric was very polite and attentive. Having an excellent server always makes dining away from home worth it!
