We came in after driving for 4 hours. I threw away some trash (there were no garbage cans outside) and went to the men's room. When we sat down, the owner came to our table and asked if I used his garbage can. I said yes. He said, because there was an empty wine bottle, he wasn't serving us. It was almost like he wanted us to leave. We agreed to only have food. read more

Outback Steakhouse - Food was very good. - Steakhouses Near Me - Joplin, Missouri

My experience at this outback was quite short of amazing. There was less people in the building than there are in a carton of eggs. However, my food arrived so late you would think there's a party of 75 in the back. Additionally, My Caesar salad was so overdressed it was like Caesar himself hand-dunked a head of romaine lettuce in a pond filled with Caesar dressing. Server was nice. read more

When our party of 4 arrived we not offered a coat check as others were. We had to ask for salt and pepper, nothing came out. Then we noticed other waiters were offering grinder salt and pepper shakers to their customers but we were not! And we didn't have any one ask us if we wanted dessert. After spending close to $600 at least we could have been offered dessert. We realized after we were on our way home that we had no dessert. Our waiter was excellent but more could have been done to enhance our visit. Thank you Martha Logan. Btw we were there on 12-20-25 at 3:00 read more

My wife and I were at the Joplin Outback recently. The service was impeccable. I ordered a filet and it was cooked correctly and very good. The fries are EXCELLENT. My wife ordered a sirloin and the bold flavor from the glaze didn't sit well with some recent issues she'd been having with her throat and acid reflux. The manager came out and offered to replace it for her even though nothing was wrong with the steak. Both he and the server were very gracious and we'll be back. To heck with those other steak houses. Outback is now our "go-to" restaurant for steak. read more

First of all ordered my prime rib medium rare it came out rare wasn't even warm for the touch. Of course they took it off my bill and I ordered a new steak which of course I had to pay for plus the person that I was eating with had already eaten by the time I got the steak they didn't even offer me a discount just offered me a dessert I will never go back there. And I should have known that something horrible was going to happen to my food because the people that were sitting behind us their steak was not made to their liking either and they actually got their meal for free I should have gotten mine for free because there should be no mistake. They offered to take my prime rib back into the kitchen and sear it I said absolutely not I want a new steak. Kind of explains why the parking lot was not busy and all the other state places and places to eat in town were packed they need to up their game. read more

They just aren't what they used to be, the food is dialed in. We are disappointed every time we eat here. Their app rarely works (ok, never works on any of our phones), they never get our order right when we call in for a take-out order, and the food is generally overcooked and dried out. Most steak houses can make a decent grilled salmon, for example, they deliver a hard leathery version more akin to jerky. There are a few things we used to like but we keep expecting them to be the way the chain was 5 or 10 years ago, It just isn't any more or maybe it's this location. We come here only a few times a year now if we happen to be right in front of it when we are ready to eat out. It used to be a chain we air at regularly. read more

They gave me an undercooked but well seasoned steak, I asked for rare so part of that is on me, I asked them to take it back for 60 seconds and it was perfect. Very nice people, bar too. The whole place was nice. read more

My parents and I came at about 5:30 on a Saturday night and got seated quickly. Our waiter was very helpful and efficient, as well as the rest of the staff we encountered. I got the bbq chicken, sweet potato, and veggies. We also ordered a bloomin onion (obviously) and all of my food was delicious. The atmosphere was fun and family friendly. I will say it was much busier when we left but was very pleased with the experience! read more

We ordered last night and we're looking forward to good meal as always. We're travelling to California. The meal was horrible! The salmon was over cooked and the steak was tough and tasteless. The vegetables were mushy. And the baked potatoes were not fresh. However, my husband liked the bread. We were very disappointed!!!!!!!! Waste of money and money is tight. We're elderly and retired. read more

Nice bar area with music and TV for football season. Had filet and coconut shrimp, grilled asparagus and baked potato, and a glass of Cabernet. Wish they had better wines but it is what it is. Food is always tasty. I could do without the girl bop music. Service was prompt and friendly. Of course everyone in Missouri seems nice. I am from The Midwest so we know nice. Place is clean and plenty of parking. They do need to change to paper straws. read more

We arrived about 4 pm on a Wednesday. We ordered a Caesar salad, steak with lobster tail and loaded mashed potatoes. The food was great but our waitress was MIA every time we needed something and even forgot to deliver out lobster tail to us. We shared the meal and I was taken back when she plopped down a single plate between us. Please divide onto two plates and bring out. We aren't hogs feeding from the same trough. If that's too difficult at least bring us an extra plate. I give it 4 stars because it was clear it wasn't the A team working that afternoon but the food was oh so good. read more

Steak was tender and juicy. Best I have had for a while. Service was abnormally good.

worst service girl up front lied to owner and said we were very rude but we were very kind choose somewhere else to eat.

Came to Joplin to visit family. We all went here for dinner. It was moderately busy as usual I've been here before obviously. They did everything right from the get go. Or meal took 5 or 10 minutes longer than the norm, but came out hot and correct. Thank you! Y'all didn't beat my favorite outback in Fayetteville but you sure came close. A five star rating for this location-all day...! read more

Stopped here in town for the night. Ordered coconut shrimp, as appetizer. Son had Bloomin chicken sandwich. I had steak Caesar salad. Everything was over cooked. This restaurant also does not have gluten free buns for burgers. Come On Outback- everyone has gluten free buns now! Catch up. I was not impressed. read more

Absolutely the BEST Outback i have ever been too. Courtney the waitress was awesome, very nice from the time i sat down. Had wings and a salad (salad was the best). Then Bret the manager swung over twice and even changed the channel on the tv for me. Explained where every outlet to plug in was at and was very Accommodating. The place is CLEAN and i am glad i stopped here to eat. Great job Bret and team, your doing an awesome job! read more

Let me start by saying the bartender TARRA, and managers BRIAN & BRYCE ALL gave me the BEST SERVICE I'VE EVER RECEIVED!!! (This is coming from a server/bartender) THEY DESERVE RECOGNITION!!!! They were all so kind and accommodating!!! My drinks stayed full, service was ON POINT, and my food was cooked to absolute perfection. That's the best steak I've had in a LONG time! I was just driving through and couldn't be more happy I stopped here at THIS Outback! I have a whole new perspective on Outback just from these 3!!! They are amazing!!!!! read more

My family visited Outback last night. The blooming onion appetizer had onion peel and uncooked breading in between the "blooms" which was not very tasty. My wife's coconut shrimp was good as well as the dipping sauce. My grandson loved his Joey Sirloin but the other two grandkids had their chicken strips. They were very minimal and over cooked. I would call them fried chicken jerky. I had the prime rib. The first bite was not pleasing at all. It was tough and room temperature. After I cut off the outer layer it was tender but was served at room temperature. I love a creamy horseradish sauce but what I got was just straight horseradish. The service was fine. This experience was disappointing for a $100 meal for two adults and three children. read more

I have never had a problem with Outback restaurant before however after my last experience I will not be repeating. My meal was soooooooooo salty it was uneatable from the blooming shrimp to the blooming burger with fries. Beware. read more

Four of our party ordered steaks. 1, 6 oz sirloin, two 8oz sirloin, one fillet Every one of those steaks were to tough to eat. All four were taken home and feed to the dogs. All three of the sirloin steaks were so small (about 4 oz) that it became obvious we were cheated.One of the guests had soup and salad and the other had chicken childs order. With tip the bill came to $170.00. Disgusting poorly prepared food! I am sending a letter of disgust to the CEO of Outback. You either need to greatly improve the quality of your food or close down. Be assured I am also posting on social Media! This was my sons birthday so I did not make a stink. read more

The Outback Steakhouse in Joplin is a very good steak place. One of the top 5 in Joplin for prime rib, ribeye and filets.

We've eaten at Outback steakhouse for the last couple years here in Joplin Missouri. But because of the coronavirus it's been close for months. Then when we found out this month that they were opened we went out to eat there and again food was delicious no complaints whatsoever and the service was awesome. We had ribs fries and mashed potatoes I think an alcoholic beverages which they made up real nice Rum& Coke. read more

Three words: toilet seat covers! Get them immediately. I used as much toilet paper as I could to cover that shit up.

It just gets better every time we go! It's sad that we prefer this steak over the steaks at Wilders, Red Oak and then all the local chains around Joplin, they just know what they're doing here and their manager Bobby is a great guy! So nice and attentive! Their drinks are also good, this is the place we go if we want steak. read more

Just had a great dinner and was served by a fantastic waitress named Hayden! The steak was presented and served in an excellent manners and tasted wonderful. Hayden was a very attentive and personable server, frequently stopping by to make sure everything was great. read more

One of my overall favorite places in Joplin. They have been so consistent with their food and service for as long as I can remember! Obviously you can spend a decent amount of money, but you you get what you pay for! My favorite dish is the Ribeye (12oz) with a Sweet Potato! Absolutely amazing. If I am going for something a little more affordable and subtle, I usually go with a form of Ribeye Sandwich . I will usually sub a House Salad or French Onion Soup. Both the salad and soup are the best I've had around town, especially the soup!! In regards to drinks and appetizers, again they are at the top of my list! Their Bloomin Onion is awesome and their Margaritas and Beers are very refreshing! If I had one criticism, it would be the changes that they frequently make to their menu. My wife and I have both had dishes that we loved that were taken off of the menu. Overall, amazing restaurant! read more

Always good and this location was in particular with the others I've been to. Not a long wait, good cocktails (the Skinny-Rita is what I had), and good food. This time I had the Shrimp Ceasar Salad. The shrimp was tasty and I wish there was more (don't we always). Caesar salad is basically lettuce and cheese. So this was a bit plain but good. Oh and the bread ... So good!!! read more

Wow! What a great place. As soon as we came in we were greeted by the hostess and the GM. We were seated right away. Our appetizer came out so fast. Our drinks were refilled at a timely matter. And the parmesan parmesan herb chicken is AMAZING! The only reason this place has 3 stars is from old reviews years ago. read more

Was a little pricey for the food that we ordered. The only thing I really enjoyed was the blooming onion. Wasn't impressed with this location compared to other Outbacks I have been to. read more

I ordered the steak and shrimp and the shrimp was severely overcooked. My steak was dry and charred on the top. My wife ordered the steak and hers was extremely dry. The only thing that was good about the meal was the cheese fries and the Mac and cheese. I would not recommend. It was a waste of time and money. They are severely over priced and the quality of food and service is terrible. read more
