Outback Steakhouse Aspley

Love this place. Love the outback inspired design. The food is expensive but is worth it as the food tastes amazing and generous portion sizes as well, I can never eat everything so I appreciate that I can get a takeaway box to take my food home. I've never had any issues with the food or staff. I highly recommend the bloomin onion, Alice Springs chicken and ribs combo, chocolate thunder. Tastiest food I have ever eaten.

Had an absolute blast at this place. My first time ever coming to an outback steakhouse and I couldn't have enjoyed it enough, especially with the help of the server named Monique. She was so friendly and felt extremely easy to talk to, very pleasant experience with her. The food was absolutely delicious and I am definitely coming back here again. I loved the spooky set up with Halloween slowly creeping up and how clean the place was. Definitely recommend coming here and enjoying a good night out for dinner.

We have been wanting to visit this restaurant for a very long time, mostly due to my husband being American and craving a Bloomin Onion. It was well worth the long journey (almost 50kms) and expense. So the not so great things first. 1. We were celebrating a birthday but not offered the birthday brownie which was a bit disappointing. Didn't ruin the night but still a little sad. I'm not sure how it really works but when we booked it asked if we were celebrating a special occasion and I said yes, assuming they'd ask if we wanted the brownie. If we come again I'll just ask next time. 2. The young guy that took our drinks order. Now I'm not sure if he was having a bad night, sorry if you were, but he was very abrupt and not very personable. It might have just been us though because the table behind us were told the cocktail special and where the drinks menu was but we were not. Possibly about 5-8 minutes after being sat that we were asked what drinks we wanted. 3. The Bloomin onion is small for the price. Delicious but small. When you've had the Texas Roadhouse version and then compare it to ours... It was just small. After all it's just a fried onion and it's comparable in price to the fried shrimp which is odd. 4. The 'Fresh sides' five potato options and one seasonal vege. No salads or corn or any other option which was super odd. When you get to pick two it's weird to have so many choices of the one vegetable. I mean we like potatoes but we don't want two different versions of potato. 5. The website menu. It is outdated. We had been looking forward to sharing a sirloin steak but it wasn't available anymore. It's okay though we enjoyed our meal but maybe remove it from your website? Now the good stuff... 1. Our food server. She also checked us out when we left and we enquired with another team member what her name was and she told us it was Paisley. She's fantastic. Looked a little stressed but she was running around doing everything. She checked on us several times which is almost unheard of in Australian restaurants and that was greatly appreciated. 2. The food. Other than the weird lack of side options we were extremely impressed with our food. We always have such bad luck with steak (at other places) but they were seasoned beautifully and cooked exactly how we asked. There was a slight size discrepancy between the two steaks which probably would have gone unnoticed if we hadn't ordered the same cut but we've worked in the meat industry before so we understand that not every strip is going to be exactly the same. 3. The drinks were good sizes and the table water was free which is a plus. The appletini was lovely and perfectly made. Credit to your bartender. 4. The decor although a bit worn and dirty in places was keeping on theme for a steakhouse and the seats were comfortable and the table and cutlery clean and in working order.
