My waitress was great. I got a strawberry lemonade, shrimp, and steak. Everything tasted great. Except the bread. Meh. The shrimp was ok, but the steak was fantastic. Also if you are allergic to certain items don't use the shrimp sauce that comes with the shrimp. Other than the sauce, and the bread it was great. read more

Any time we go to the Layton Outback they ruin a steak. We like our steaks cooked all the way through - Well Done - but not burnt. Most of the time my steak is perfect and my wife's steak is oozing blood or burnt. If we send it back to the kitchen, they nuke it and it comes back a tough piece of shriveled up steak. Not going back. read more

As a bit of a Coloradan beer snob, we got off on the wrong foot with the draft beer selection,.So I went with a tried and true Sam Adams Rebel IPA bottle. After all, this is Utah. I knew prior to going in here that I wanted the steak salad, that I've had before at other locations and was great. So I put my order in right away after receiving my beer. They delivered the salad to me and I never heard back from server, when in fact the steak was overdone and not medium rare as I requested. I was hungry though and I had my Rebel to keep me company while perched at the bar. I never saw the waiter again except through the window into the back room. The bartender took over at that point, but never asked how it was. So here I am staring into my Yelp app., letting you and the management know that the service was okay and the salad was okay as well. Sadly enough, I've seen this happen with a number of Outback restaurants. They are starting to look dated. What used to be a Snappy steak chain endorsed by Paul Hogan ( the Crocodile Hunter) now seems to be fading Into the sunset with so many other chain restaurants. read more

I've eaten here a few times, as well as gotten delivery from there. The food has always been great, and the steak is always cooked to perfection! read more

I've came to this location very frequently since I was a young child with my family, and we have a lot of great memories here. We miss the alligator that used to hang on the wall! Outback is a decently priced steakhouse with great food! I usually get the Mac & cheese but for the first time in forever I tried something new and got the philly and it was DELISH! I love Philly cheesesteak so this was a good meal for me to indulge in! I wasn't even aware they had them! I do not remember the waiters name, but he was extremely friendly, and was very courteous. Thank you, Outback! We love you! Don't forget to try out the bread (the absolute very best!) and the cheese fries! Can't have a proper meal without the two! read more

Asked for a medium well steak got a rare super chewy. They still billed me for the plate even though I didn't eat it lol bad experience bad service. read more

No wait to be seated - took our order within a reasonable amount of time - then out appetizer came out - had to ask for small plates and cutlery - had to ask again for our drinks - waited another 45 minutes for our Salads - had to ask again for my sons drink - 20 minted later the food came out - was cooked well and and tasted good - forgot The side of shrimp we had been done eating for 10 minutes before shrimp came out - ordered dessert - so we were there for 2 hours 15 minutes - disappointing for sure. read more

Our visit tonight was excellent. Food was delicious and worth the wait (they were super busy as usual). Shout out to Joey for the best service we've had in awhile. read more

July 22, 2021, I couldn't remember the exact time but it was after 8:00 PM. We went to your branch in Layton with address 1664 N Heritage Park Blvd, Layton, UT 84041 for dinner to celebrate my son's birthday. "Josie", was attending to our orders. I ordered coffee with "cream" and "sugar". So, she got us our drinks and my coffee but without the "cream" and "sugar". Its okay. Maybe she forgot. So I waited for her to come around. Then I asked for it again. She said "she'll bring it over". I see her serving other tables and that took over 5-10 minutes and I still don't have the condiments and my coffee is getting cold. While she was serving the other table next to ours, I asked her again and I said my coffee is getting cold. She said "she'll bring you another order of coffee". I said I do not want another coffee I want my cream and sugar! She went to our table and said "she's a little bit busy and she's the only one there" WITH AN ATTITUDE! Then when she came back and handed the condiments, I was making sure I get her name by trying to read it so I can report the unfriendly attitude towards customers. And then, again, with an attitude she said "ANYTHING ELSE?" So, my family decided to just have our celebration somewhere else so we asked for the bill for what we already consumed. Your cashier was kind enough to inquire if we were okay. I told her how unfriendly "Josie", the waiter was. Everything could've been okay if she just apologized. But nothing! She wasn't apologetic. It doesn't look like its in her nature. It was very disappointing specially when you go out to one of your favorite places to eat then someone like your server messes up the evening. I believe she should undergo more training on customer service. Or better of, not put her in front of customers. I cannot let this go. It was really obvious to my family and the other groups of customers how "Josie" dealt with us. read more

2 pre packaged lettuce salads, not good. coconut shrimp - good, clam chowder not good at all, filets- no way were those filets and both were awful. read more

Went for a midweek meal. Had strawberry peach Sangria which was very good. My partner had a margarita that was nice and strong. Salads were good, a little small. Chelsea our fabulous waitress, she did a very good job! Both of us had filets that were cooked perfectly. Seasonal veggies were excellent and the mashed potatos were delish, better than Roadhouse potatoes! Overall a surprisingly excellent meal. read more

Our server Carly was awesome! She not only acted professionally and was attentive, her recommendations were spot on. The filet mignon was cooked perfectly! The loaded mashed potatoes are delicious and it was a generous portion. The family and I will be regulars at this location. read more

We ordered six and an eight ounce steaks and we were served two 6 ounce steaks. Our server and the Manager decided to cook us an additional steak at no charge to make it right. We were very pleased with the service and would recommend this Outback to anyone. Thanks for taking good care of us read more

Tried them for a lunch date with my husband and our little man. Where to begin? We walked in & was being seated & a man was complaining to the waitress his steak was over cooked. We got seated & ordered our food,drinks & a blooming onion for an appetizer. She brought out the wrong drinks. She brings our appetizer & we fast ran out of dip & the waitress was nowhere to be seen. When she finally appeared it was for another table & we flag her down. Tell we need more dip. She brings it out with the salads & is gone again. We realized we have no salt & pepper on the table for our salad, but cant find our waitress. We only see when she comes to drop off the food & I ask for A1 to be brought to the table. My husband cuts open his $30 steak & its soo under cooked it mooed at him. He wanted medium & it was rare & just not going to work. She brings a small little cup of A1 for 3 people to share I guess. We explain the steak is way under cooked. Then I'm guessing a manager comes over & says is there a problem? Didnt introduce himself or say sorry just took the plate and they both walk off. I still have no salt & pepper & my baked potato hardly has any butter & wasnt served with a side butter like most places. My steak was over cooked it was to be medium and it's well done. My son is the only one at the table with good food. His chicken was cooked nicely and tasted good. The manager? And the waitress bring back my husbands steak & it's still not medium,but we are done with this back & forth nonsense. He asked for A1, I asked for salt & pepper,but forgot to ask for butter. So at this point I just used the butter from the bread & try to enjoy my dry potato & my over cooked steak. Looong story short, this steak house can't cook a steak, dont provide or ask if you need condiments or salt & pepper. Waitress was untrained & struggling to handle 4 tables. I would never come back to this place even if I was given a gift card. I must say I havent had such a bad experience like this in years. read more

See all

I ordered from here while staying at the hotel next door. I did an online order and my food was ready within 20 minutes. I asked for ketchup up on arrival and he said it was in the bag but after getting to the room, I realized there was no ketchup and no utensils for my Mac n cheese or my salad. Thankfully the hotel had some in the lobby. The Mac n cheese was just ok but our burgers were good. The salad would've been better had they given me ranch dressing like requested instead of blue cheese. I would eat here again but next time check my bag before leaving to make sure I have everything I need. read more

My wife and I went to the Layton outback last night I had a full rack of ribs it was excellent, had to take some home

The food was decent but way over priced and although the server was super nice they were overworked and didn't provide us with baking or silverware. When I got my pasta they gave me a spoon and as you can imagine it was practically impossible to eat. Very disappointed especially for the price. read more

This spot gets a rave review because unlike other places they will seat you 15 minutes before closing time. Big leagues. Not bush leagues. Food is always dependable and good. It's. Or great but it's solid and it is always on time. Great things if you value your time. read more

Always a joy to enter an outback. The bread is honestly so good and most of the reason I crave to visit. I always end out taking my steak home because I get so full off of the appetizers and bread; plus they give us salad and soups before the steak so it just ends up being a late night snack which is always better with their garlic butter. DROOL. The manager there was very pleasant and was actively looking around the dining room and visually helping all of the staff members. So glad to see everyone staying safe in covid times as well. Would highly recommend stopping by :) read more

We ordered dinner for four. Three of us were happy. My "rare" blooming burger was WAY over cooked and the blooming pedals were cooked in stale oil...yuck!! I had to scrape them off and leave them! Thank goodness I turned away the fries....likely fried in the same stale oil! But, the service was perfect and the fries () were happily swapped out for fruit Service gets 5 out of 5 stars...stale oil and poorly cooked meat gets 2 of 5 stars. read more

KC was an excellent server/bartender and the food was phenomenal! Would defiantly recommend this restaurant over Texas Roadhouse in Layton just on the wonderful service alone. read more

DONT GO HERE ON A SUNDAY! Although the staff was very nice, they are in serious need of a new manager! We were greeted with a list of what they were out of... Would have been better to give a list of what they still had... Or better yet... Just closed early. It apparently was not an abnormal thing for the staff to deal with this every Sunday. Clearly the staff and the cooks were fed up, and the atmosphere as well as the food reflected as much. read more

outback is usually my go to place when I am wanting a steak but this time really disappointed. Our waiter only talked to us once and was very rude the entire time and had to ask other waiters for we had a question. They brought the wrong drink out and were annoyed when I asked for the right drink. They brought out our steak and it was still completely raw (I ordered medium well). They didn't even put the people order in for the people next to us and didn't realize after they had already been waiting for an hour. also waited another 30 minutes before they brought our card back. Horrible service will be going to texas roadhouse from now on. read more

Service was extremely slow. We didn't get bread, we didn't get more water. The steaks were cooked wrong, the Alice springs chicken didn't have the honey mustard sauce on it. The potatoes weren't cooked all the way and really dry. Overall, I don't actually plan to go back. This location used to be good! read more

This place used to be so good.....haven't been in a couple years and decided to go tonight. Limp lettuce on the salads, broccoli was brownish, filet was grizzle and over cooked. My son said his burger tasted like a quarter pounder. All for the price of $200 for 4 people. Mehhh. read more

This place used to be a go to for a great dinner -- the quality of the food and the service have declined substantially over the past couple of years. We won't go back. read more

MOUTH WATERING FOOD!!! In the past I have not been a fan of the Outback franchise. However, for a family celebration we ended up coming here. I ordered the lobster tail, baked potato, and broccoli... boy, I was satisfied!! The broccoli was huge and cooked incredibly well, the lobster was tender/juicy, and the baked potato was off the hook! Everyone in my party enjoyed their food and the blooming onion appetizer we ordered. This location was absolutely wonderful, our waiter was playful, knowledgeable, and speedy. I will be sure to visit Outback Steakhouse again in the future. read more

Ate here twice and enjoyed the wood grilled steak. I was never an Outback fan but with the wood fired steaks I am now a fan for sure. The Diet Cokes though tasted nasty so try a tea instead. read more

I've been to multiple outback's across the country and they have always been consistent until dining at this location. The Alice springs chicken was like jerky. Very over cooked. Service was horribly slow. Just an overall bad experience. Such a shame because the chain as a whole has been amazing. read more

Really I have fell completely in love with outback and it's become my go to relax after work. I usually sit at the bar and have great conversation with some of the employees or other bar guests. I was suggested to try the garlic topping on the steak and they were so frightened. My food is always hot and delicious, they must have some great cooking staff, on top of that their waiters are always friendly and helpful. Highly suggest checking this place out if you haven't already. read more

Our experience at Outback Steakhouse was one of the poorer restaurant experiences I have had. I'll start from the beginning. This may be a 2.5 stars. We arrived about 5:15 on a Friday night. We were seated as soon as we walked through the door. Perks of coming early, I guess! They may have been understaffed because the guy that sat us appeared to be dressed as a bus boy and not a host. He brought our menus, but he didn't bring silverware, napkins, or the high chair we requested for our little one. This is where it started getting interesting. There was a group across from our table that quickly flagged down the guy that sat us and asked if he could get their waiter/waitress. He said he would. A few minutes passed and our waitress still hadn't come to ask for drink orders and the other table's waitress hadn't come either. We were busy looking over our menus but the other table appeared to have been there a long time as they kept asking any worker where the waitress was. Other groups around us had waiters and waitresses serving them but still no one had come to us or the table across from us. Finally after probably 15-20 minutes the waitress (who served our table and the other table) finally showed up and said no one had told her that they had sat anyone at her tables (this could have been the understaffed issue that I noted above). She finally took our drink orders and went away. Probably another 5-10 minutes passed before we got our drinks. So, what we thought was a quick seating ended up being more of a 20-30 minute wait. I'm not even sure how long the other table had been waiting. Don't get me wrong, the staff that had helped us was very nice, but there seemed to be an overall lack of communication or responsibility throughout the whole restaurant. We put in our orders and had a pretty decent wait. 20 minutes or so, but you would expect that with steaks that were cooked to order. Our steaks were really good! Nothing incredible, but I enjoyed the juiciness of mine. I was disappointed in my fries. First off, there weren't many, and with a name like "Aussie Fries" I was expected a little more than what seemed to have come out of a freezer and cooked. My wife went to the bathroom and came back saying it was disgusting and worse than a gas station bathroom. One toilet overflowing, the next stall with toilet paper all over the floor, and a very dirty bowl. Yikes. Overall, the food was decent, but the long waits, the lack of communication/responsibility throughout the restaurant, and the dirty bathroom is what pushes me to give Outback Steakhouse the above rating. I personally will not choose to come back. read more

The food was ok, not great. Steak was undercooked from what I'd asked for and the coconut shrimp was slightly burnt. The service was inattentive and unenthusiastic. After our server brought our food, she never came back. The manager did come by to check on us at which point we asked for some much needed drink refills. He brought them after he had already asked our server to bring them (she didn't) and then brought another table their food. When he brought our drinks we asked for some extra ketchup. He let out a frustrated sigh and said "Ok." He brought our ketchup and nearly threw it on the edge of the table saying "Here." as he ran by our table. Besides bringing the check and taking our payment we got no further service or check ins. read more

Slow service. I ordered burger and ask for "no special sauce". Came with the special sauce and no onion. I took 2 bites and just pushed it aside. My friend ordered shrimp and salad and mashed potatoes. Never got salad and had an order of rice on the plate with potatoes??? I gave 3 stars because the manager took burger off bill and 25% because they forgot salad and slow service. read more

Ordered the ribeye, med. we'll. Came out med. rare. I ordered the steak with the bourbon glaze sauce. Mgr. (I assume because she didn't introduce herself brings a steak back out.... THE SAME STEAK. They heated a steak that had been off the grill for a good 10-15 minutes WITH A GLAZE ON IT again. I sent it back for a different one of course and am now waiting. This is supposed to be a steak house..... Not so much. Steak came, cooked properly. No apology, no name given. Waitress went AWOL. Took 20 minutes to get a tea refill. Too many options out there to frequent this establishment. We won't be back. Guess it's what I get for going to a chain but it's Sunday and I'm in Utah . read more

As with most large chains the food is ubiquitous across all locations. I had the sirloin steak which was a bit over cooked.

I ordered Togo online to be picked up at 7:20, it wasn't ready until 7:30. I ordered the filet with the bloomin onion topping and got horseradish topping instead, no eggs on my Cobb salad and no utensils even though i specifically requested them. They also forgot the soda with one of the kids meals. I don't expect much from Outback anymore but that's a lot to go wrong with one order. The steaks were cooked properly though. I won't be going back regardless. read more

The worst service I have ever had at a restaurant! We didn't get asked for drinks till 10 minutes after being there, they took another 20 minutes to get our food order, on top of that it took 30 min plus to actually get our food after we ordered it and once we received it it was cold. Never asked to get us a refill on drinks or really ask us anything about our meal. I get they were busy but your a restaurant there was a table open when we got there, ppl sat down after us and left before us. read more
