My wife and I had a quick date here on 8/25. Our waitress was Muffin. She was very attentive and polite. I had steak, fried shrimp, broccoli and a side of Mac and Cheese. We also had a sampler with fries, bloomin onions, and cheese bites. It was all great. Too much for me to finish even on an empty stomach. The broccoli was the best I've ever eaten. The only thing I didn't really like is that the seating was too close to other tables. If you aren't in a booth it's not exactly a quaint dining experience. read more

I have eaten here in the past, even given great reviews...but recently, I ordered the pork medallions with pineapple with mustard glad in the side. I ordered it, and when I got the meal the first thing I noticed was that there were no pineapple pieces as the site said, and it stated that there was a mustard glaze, but it you could request it on the side... did. When my food was delivered, the first thing I tasted was the glaze. It tasted SO BAD. I cant even describe its flavor. In addition the so called "pork medallions" were DEAD. It looked like they found a thin cut pork chop, over cooked it, and cut it into 5 pieces. I was soooo disappointed. I couldn't t eat the meat. It was tough, flavorless, and put a bad taste in my mouth (figuratively and literally). I paid extra money because I ordered it and requested delivery. However, after this experience, I don't think I will be eating at this Outback any time soon. Cost too much money to order food and then have to throw it away and go elsewhere! Very unhappy. read more

Have been going to this outback for over 6 years. Service is great food comes out fast and fresh. Never had a problem in any of 20 plus dinners read more

This is the last time we're coming to this establishment. The night started out great with the trio dip appetizer, very flavorful and good portion. It was when our entrees arrived that things took a turn for the gross. My wife's Steakhouse salad was so salty she couldn't help but send it back. My Bone In ribeye was overcooked and cold. The kicker was that my daughter had a hair in her asparagus - that was the last straw. Exit stage left - do not go here. The manager on duty, Marco, came over but at that point it was too late to explain each and every problem. read more

We hadn't been to outback in Over 2 years. We decided to go this evening to give it another try. It was absolutely amazing service and amazing food. My husband and I both had the 6oz filet and it was perfection. Our waitress was Christina and she was a 10 out of 10. We will definitely be going back again. read more

Food was ok but I spent $30 on a meal for curbside pickup and instead of getting the damn baked potato I ordered, it was replaced with a piece of bread. read more

It's clear that the restaurant scene in Dover is lame, so the addition of any new restaurant is welcomed, even if it is a chain. Since it is a new restaurant, many of the servers are not well informed as to what their menu has to offer or details of many of the dishes. Service is friendly but a little aloof. The ambiance is nice and warm. They even have a lovely outdoor sitting area to wait until your table is ready. Food is good. The grilled salmon was seasoned and grilled perfectly. Crab cakes were nice and large with big chunks of crab. Lobster tail was delicious. read more

This is a new restaurant built in Dover. To paint a geographic picture, this area is on the suburb-rural side so it's not surprising everyone in town was here. With that being said ,there is a bit of a wait before you can be seated. However, they had plenty of menus in the waiting area and even walked around with a sample of their signature Blooming Onion while customers waited. (Very tasty by the way, but you have to like pure onion to enjoy). I thought that was nice/ the extra-mile because chain restaurants never really do that. Once we were seated our waiter was great. He was a bit sarcastic at times, looked tired, and forgot our to-go box, but it looked like the restaurant was a bit understaffed due to their recent opening. He really did the best he could. He explained the rewards plan to my mother when she asked. We ordered bar-drinks, the coconut shrimp, and two entrees(pictures included). There was a bit of a wait before our food came out. My food was delicious and cooked medium rare as I asked. Once I cut into my steak it was very juicy and my caesar salad was so crisp/fresh that I could eat it without the dressing. My Moms fish was a bit salty for her, otherwise it was fantastic(I tried a bite ;) lol). I would definitely return again. Nice set up, caring staff, and good for a local food chain. Would recommend!!!!! read more

I like Outback because they typically make good steaks for a reasonable price, and they also typically do a great job with their grilled salmon. This location must still be on their learning curve. Still not sold on this Outback, but will give it a couple more chances because they are so close. Tonight, the 6 oz serloin was small, thin and overcooked. Aside from that, Salmon was very good. read more

Outback Steakhouse - not happy with this serloin. - Steakhouses Near Me - Dover, Delaware

Just not good. Burger sent back. Overdone about 1/3 " thick. Cheese overheated. AND disappeared. Small wine pours. Filet mignon small portion about 1/2" thick maybe. Tasteless. If this is a steak place somebody should check where's the MEAT???? read more

Last few times have been absolutely great! Bone-in ribeye and lobster perfect medium! French onion soup always good and Jamie believes it best lobster tail around. Bartenders Courtney, Cody, Shandi and managers Virginia and Angie are absolutely great, 5 stars for them! Experience been getting better and better and this is V-Day when expect mishaps!

Ordered dinner to go. Went into bar while waiting for my order. Lady bartender was spot on and I enjoyed the service after a very long day. Very accommodating and attentive. Nice to see someone who's a professional. I ordered dinner and haven't had the food so my review is based on service alone and it has been outstanding. Good place to visit. "Muffin" the bartender is professional and sweet. Thank you! read more

I've been on the road driving for 12 hrs straight and hadn't had anything to eat allday but a bag of pickle chips...sounded like I needed some outback in my life. I love the steaks there they are very delicious. I've been going to the bar area for the past 4 months and haven't had any issues with the bartender that was there or any customer service issue but, today GoodFriday was the day that Katrina and her boyfriend the bartender wanted to give me horrible service and attitudes. I asked for a chilled shot of crown appleand a bud lt pint from the man bartender that was their he shakes his head and says would u like a double shot for a dollar more I say fine. I recieve my drink and shot not knowing my shot wasn't chilled I downed it as usually until I noticed it was hot to the taste. I waited for the male bartender to come back my way to address my issue and when I do he says he never heard me say chilled and tried going back and forth with me. I told him I just wanted another shot chilled please and I would pay for it there isn't any issue really. He walks away comes back 5 minutes later with a chilled shot and says is that better for you with a sarcastic tone and look on his face. This is when Katrina the female bartender asks me what's the matter I start to tell her about the chilled drink and she says I didn't hear you say chilled either agreeing and taking the side of her boyfriend and the only reason i knew they are bf gf was because she insistedon letting me know it was her boyfriend without me even asking her about her status. I said ok he didn't make my drink chilled and I would prefer you take care of me whenever I come into the restaurant I really didn't care for his attitude or how he handle small mistakes. Katrina then says we'll every thing is right now right sir. With a snarky tone. I ignored it until she went to tell her boyfriend the male bartender what the issue was. He thought it was so funny that he messed up someone's order that he laughed out loud. Then that when I questioned him and said you think that's funny huh...just cancel my order and I'll just go. This is when the manager stepped in and apologized for them and comp'd my bill. I wasn't looking for free food I don't go out anywhere looking for free food, i treated katrina kindly every single time i came in there and tipped her 20$ every single time because i know how it is to be a bartender, i was very surprised to be treated this way just because that is her bf. Their service was horrible and when Katrina works with her "boyfriend" she is a whole different person. To be warned if anyone goes here and them 2 are together do not expect service u should get. I came to cheddar instead and there prices and service is way better. read more

Generally I have loved every Outback Steakhouse I've been to, but this one is terribly disappointing! The food: Aussie Cheese Fries- generally one of their best appetizers, the cheese & bacon toppings were sparse to say the least. Loaded baked potatoes - again, perhaps 1/2 tsp of toppings & sour cream. Not loaded, barely more than a dry potato Sautéed mushrooms - whole mushrooms simmered in au jus is, by definition, NOT the same as sautéed mushrooms which would be typically found as a steak topping. If that's how it's done now, it should be clarified on the menu. Steak was cooked fine. Grilled shrimp were drier than usual. Child's Mac & cheese was not only forgotten (gave us yet more fries!), but when it finally arrived it was over-microwaved, dry and had zero flavor. It's pretty bad when a kid doesn't like it! I have had these dishes at other Outback's before...this was truly sub par and not what I've experienced in the past. The Service: Pleasant but very poor. One menu and they prefer you to use your phone & order from the website...really??? Everything was wrong and had to be corrected. No attempt to replace bread or even ask if we were interested. No clarification of order, then no ownership of mistakes once pointed out. Little follow up and interaction. Not a busy day as there was a high staff to customer ratio. I could go on and on, but you get it. Try Outback, yes, but skip this location. read more

Alyssa, our server, was energetic and really, really nice and friendly! She smiled, greeted us, was prompt, efficient, and spot on with our order. It is so rare in this day to get such a nice, helpful "SERVEr!" While the restaurant was a bit "sticky" and somewhat busy/crowded, it was totally expected on Black Friday. Our food was absolutely delicious - I had "onion petals" for the first time, and it was the perfect quantity. Although my salmon was a tad overcooked, my baked potato was perfect - and I can't say enough about the wonderful salted caramel cookie in a skillet! Although we were just "driving by" and it's been an age since we've been to an Outback - this location has reminded us just how much we enjoy the food they offer. read more

I've lived in Dover since this Outback location opened and haven't even considered coming here since I make the best steaks in the world at home in my Big Green Egg, according to my wife. That being said, tonight my son and I needed to do some shopping after work and found ourselves on Rte 13 and in need of dinner. This establishment was clean and we were seated immediately. Our food came out pretty quickly after ordering. My sons chicken tenders are pretty tough to mess up, but I gotta day the NY Strip steak was cooked to perfection and tasted great (although missing that Green Egg grilled flavor I've become accustomed to. I thought to myself , "I just might have to come back sometime." What made this visit a 5 star rating wasn't the food or establishment, I think our server Kaitlyn did an outstanding job. She was charismatic, generous, and made us want to return again. read more

We always enjoy going to different Outback Steakhouse restaurants in our travels, because we love the varied menu and somewhat consistent quality among locations. However we visited the Outback in Dover Delaware today for lunch, while out on a food run, and truly had our best experience yet. The quality of the meal remained high (as was expected), but the overall customer experience was even better due to one attentive and interesting employee. We usually choose to sit at the bar for lunches to engage other diners in fun conversation. However this time the bartender/server (Joyce), kept the bar area lively and fun by herself. And, her honest food and drink recommendations were right on and greatly appreciated by my wife and I. Although we have had good meals at many OB restaurants over years, this was truly the most enjoyable one because of one special person. I highly recommend this Dover location, and if you are lucky enough to find Joyce working the bar area, tell her Doug and Janet said hi! You won't be sorry. WE WILL BE BACK!.... ! read more

Wowzies!! What a meal! My food was outstanding!!And incredible service!! Our waitress was so on point with my drinks (moms night out am I right??)! Shout out to Katrina F!! You're truly the best!! read more

The servers at outback are great this is one of the best restaurants to go in dover.

My husband and I stopped here on our way to the beach for lunch. The place looks incredibly brand new. There's a lot of parking, the bathrooms are clean, and it's in a good location. We were greeted by the friendly hosts upon entering. We were quickly seated. Our server's name was Danielle. She was extremely nice, but overall the service was slow. It took about 5-6 minutes to be greeted. We placed our drink orders along with our children's food order. It took quite a few minutes to receive our drinks. The boys food came out in a decent amount of time. We then placed our food order. Our food came out in a decent amount of time. However, my soup never came out. I went to ask the server who delivered it, but she dropped the food and practically ran. I was basically done with my food before our server came back to address the soup situation. I said to forget about the soup, which was then taken off of the bill. She was kind enough to bring me one to go but didn't take it due to traveling. The prices were average for a chain restaurant. The food was decent. The service was rather slow compared to other experiences. read more

I went to Outback tonight in Dover with my family. The service was great. Our waitress, Camryn B. was awesome. And the food was excellent. I ordered a ribeye medium rare and even though it was medium well the first time, they took it back. They gave me a new one that was how I ordered it. Not only that but the chef personally came out to make sure it was to my liking. I am amazed at her's and Outback's dedication to their customers. I will definitely eat there again. read more

Worst Outback I've ever experienced. Lousy, understaffed service, steak quesadilla's were fatty/grisly, coffee was weak, only one star for the French Onion soup which was ok. Not coming back to this Outback any time soon. read more

We ordered Kings Land Steak and Shrimp dinner. It looks good on the picture. The steaks was very tough, the pasta was delish but the portion was so small. We order from Outbacks a couple times a week. We were getting tired of the chicken not being completed. Sandy read more

I think this Outback is the best one I have ever visited. Excellent food (with great specials) and staff is very attentive. Easy to get in and out within an hour for lunch on weekdays. Great place! Thought I would update my review. I still love this place. Had a medium rib-eye steak for dinner this past week. It was the best steak I have had in a long time. I go to this Outback routinely for lunch and love the specials. I don't care much for the burgers for some reason. read more

it was my birthday today. i work on bridges. covered bridges. after a ridiculously long hard day my wife takes me here for birthday dinner. service was beyond excellent and the food was on point. usually i can be a real @sshole but not here. thank you fine sir for the service and food u served us. now i must slumber from the food coma of prime rib read more

They got everything wrong. The didn't make the cheese fries with extra cheese but we were charged for it then the prime rib was raw. Totally raw. They explained you can't make prime rib to be medium but I just made it for Christmas and I made it medium. Anyway. The server was polite but that was about it. read more

I'm just going to give the highlights. Pros: friendly and knowledgeable server No wait time for a table. (NASCAR is in town so this was a surprise) Cons:MW burger was cooked Very Well. Heavy layer of char on the burger like it sat on a flat top grill for 3 minutes longer than it should have for even a well done burger Prime rib arrived MR(yum) but it was ordered MW. Management seems to have reached their limit on handling guest requests for menu modifications (it is the first night of the race weekend) Had to ask multiple times for butter, A1, and beverage refills. This location seems to still be ironing out the details of the systems set in place by Outback. Not worth the inflated menu price. read more

I ordered a 8oz sirloin med with shrimp. The steak was bloody red with blood on the plate , they asked me to scoop the potatoes and shrimp on to one plate and then they took the steak to re cook it, 20 min later it came back almost burnt and inedible. Then they decided to cook another steak and 20 min later it again came out bloody read more

Average food. Ordered the baby back ribs and they were cooked just like everyone else does them in the area, poorly. Brought me my soup after I'd already started eating my entree. $5.15 for a bottled yuengling? Their onion blossom was better than Texas Roadhouses which I'd expect since it's one of their signature appetizers. Oh yeah, no napkins on the table. Also asked for a second beverage which never came. All in all I'd sooner go to Texas Roadhouse. read more

Was seated Immediately (at a dirty table) Waited over 15 minutes and finally got up to get help. People seated after us already had drinks and orders taken. Manager came right over and told us someone would take care of us. 5 minutes later she finally showed up Ordered a filet, ribeye, soup and salads. Took about 40 minutes to get food. Food was good. No complaints. Was offered free appetizers and/or dessert by manager but didn't take him up in the offer. read more

My husband and I went on 10/04/16 for dinner and were disappointed . Husband asked for extra butter for his potato two times and never received it. The server said it was because you have to wait for someone in the kitchen to get it ready for you. His Ribeye steak was very tough and was not cooked correctly. So if you want extra butter, catsup,etc, order it at the same time you place your food order. I will say that my grilled chicken was very good. . read more

Food is very good however the service is EXTREMELY lacking. Especially if you are ordering to go. When you place the order the system will tell you and email you when it will be ready. That is just BS. A couple minutes late - ok. But 10+ is unacceptable!!! And then you get some lame excuse about "the phone wouldn't stop ringing". But, and get this, they had LOTS of time to bring out the check and have you add the tip and sign waaaaaaaay before the bad service is given. Now ain't that something??? Now you have no recourse because you've already paid for bad service. Of course the to go attendant will offer to have a manager come out. Well what would that do except make me wait longer for more aggravation while my food gets colder. That manager needs to be spending their time finding trainable people who understand customer service and actually care and take pride in their work. Heed the warning - do not close your bill before you get your order and you've verified it is correct. This Is simple restaurant service and common courtesy not brain surgery. Do what you say will do and what you've been paid for. read more

Worst Outback I've been to and we go to Outbacks frequently. Service was slow, our order came out wrong, and my medium rare steak came out burt -above well done. In addition the bathroom was disgusting. We will not be back to this establishment. read more

I'm a bit late on this review but is better late than never. I had came here for dinner with my cousin and ended up leaving my food on the table. I called back to the restaurant to be able to pick up my food but the food was thrown away.I didn't ask the manager if it was possible to just remake the food that I left and they advised that it wasn't possible. This was my first time at outback so I was a bit upset. I then called back and asked to speak to another manager and was given the owner of the restaurant.Once I explain to the owner that I did not want another meal I just wanted to have the food that I did left remade, he then understood and remade my food for me. That was some of the best customer service that I have ever received and I really appreciate it him we making my food. The owner was very courteous and met my needs and I will be back! read more

Excellent customer service. I really wish that the food had been equally as good. I ordered asparagus, which was served browned to a crisp. Okay, it was burned, like they forgot about it cooking. It's okay, I had a glass of wine which made me happy. I would not recommend this place. The food is not as good as other Outback location we've visited. read more

I go to this outback location a lot and I must say they have gotten so much better with the food. When it first opened about a year ago it wasn't that good . Service is great and the food is wonderful I always get the steak and lobster and it's delicious and reasonable in price. Customer service is great as well. It's my husbands favorite place . read more
