The meal was decent, but if you're looking for an exceptional steak, this might not be the place. While it wasn’t bad, it fell short of expectations, especially considering the price. Given the competition, there are better options for the same value.

It was Valentines Day and a less than 10 minutes wait. I couldn't believe it from the beginning. The host was nice. Our server was nothing but pleasant, polite, and attentive. Dinner was delightful, and we even took dessert home.

Been years since I’ve had Outback, but man, that was so freaking good! Blooming onion came out quick, steaks were cooked perfect. Our server Emily made sure our drinks were always full. Truly fantastic! The manager (Cary? Karen?) even stopped by our table…we let her know how great of an experience it was. Will be back when we’re in town!

I was traveling and craving a good, fresh salad, so I opted for outback over fast food. What I ended up with was clearly a pre-cut, bagged mix, with missing toppings. No red onions, green onions, tomatoes or Aussie crunch. There were a few pecans and the sirloin was good. But, I went for a good salad and honestly I could have picked up a bagged salad from the grocery store and been back in the road quicker. Also, I prefer to use Google pay to keep my cards safe, but it was down, so I had to use my plastic card instead of my phone.

Josh is my favorite server! And the airport Outback is my favorite Outback. Food is always consistently great. But I love the bar and chatting with Josh. He’s fast, efficient and friendly in a super busy environment. We will return again and again.

This was my first visit to Outback, and I had the pleasure of being served by Sara! She was absolutely fantastic—her great sense of humor, excellent communication, and friendly personality made the experience even better. She kept us updated on our food timing and made sure we were well taken care of. Outstanding service! I’d love to come back and have her as my server again.

Great time at this place. Food was served quickly. Steak was cooked well, lobster was fresh. Their chili is definitely one of my favorite sides now.

I had a hankering for salmon, and Outback steakhouse did not disappoint! Front of house had us seated within moments, our drink orders were taken not even a minute later followed by their fresh and delicious bread. I paired my salmon dish with steamed broccoli and asparagus(upcharge) and my salmon lay on a wonderful bed of seasoned rice. This location is near all of the hotels a few conveniently located between I-70 and Denver International Airport. Give them a try!
