Dining Review: Outback Steakhouse
September, 2006

The Outback chain has been successful, in our view, because they provide an excellent meal at a terrific value. Each restaurant is  run by a proprietor/owner that insures the restaurant is run to perfection.

 

Appetizers:


Seared Ahi Tuna NEW!
Just as tender as could be Sashimi grade Yellow-Fin seasoned and seared to perfection. Served with sides of soy dressing and wasabi vinaigrette



Aussie Cheese Fries: Aussie chips topped with Monterey Jack and Cheddar cheeses and bacon, served with spicy ranch dressing are a treat when you want to pull out all stops and have something mouthwatering.

Gold Coast Coconut Shrimp
Looking for shrimp but want a special touch added, yes, this is it. Six colossal shrimp dipped in beer batter, rolled in coconut, fried to a golden brown and served with marmalade sauce.

Coral Reef Crab Dip NEW!
For the crab lover, sweet lump crabmeat with their signature blend of cheeses, corn, red pepper and spices, baked to a golden brown. Served with mouth-watering honey-wheat toasts.

Salad, Soup:


Chopped  Bleu Cheese Salad
A tasty combination of iceburg and romaine lettuce with carrots Aussie Crunch, chunks of bleu cheese and cinnamon pecans.



Brisbane Caesar Salad
A "Hooley Dooley" portion of our Caesar Salad comes with choice of: Grilled shrimp on the barbie Grilled seasoned chicken breast Aussie-sized chicken breast. We took ours with the grilled chicken, whoof!


We opted for the Broccoli Soup which was creamy with tender broccoli and light seasoning.
