Outback Steakhouse

Have eaten at the Rochester Outback frequently. Servers knowledgeable. Never had an issue. Would highly recommend the Chocolate Thunder from Down Under.

Large gluten free menu with quite a few options! Staff was friendly and I didn’t get sick from my meal. I had a steak with the garlic butter, mashed potatoes, and steamed veggies.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Before ordering off the gluten free menu I let the waitress know that I had celiac disease and I would really appreciate any precautions that could be taken in the kitchen to prevent cross contamination. The waitress rolled her eyes at me and didn’t note my gluten allergy on the ticket. I did not feel comfortable eating here, didn’t eat the meal I ordered, and will not be coming back.

Celiac friendly?

No

I had some fish, veggies, mashed potatoes and some amazing chocolate cake!

They have a large menu. It is like a normal menu. lots of options.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

I've eaten here several times and the staff were knowledgeable and careful. Always nice to be able to order a big steak and veggies or mashed potatoes. Just make sure you let them know.

They were great about watching for cross contamination and brought my plate out separately from my family's. They didn't really have many menu options that weren't steak, but I ordered the grilled chicken, mashed potatoes, and side Ceasar salad. The food was really bland, and the mashed potatoes were worse than school lunches in the 80s. They were flavorless, almost translucent, and disappointing. The chicken was decent but not my favorite. I had better food at another steakhouse chain.

Outback as a chain has always been safe for me. I order the grilled chicken on the barbie with double veggies and have never had a reaction, including at this location!

I ate here twice while I was in town. They note the GF allergy for the kitchen and when they bring it to the table the server knew it was designated GF
