Been to this Salisbury, Md. Outback about 10x in the last year and a half and have had the best service!! The manager always comes by and says hello as she is friendly and courteous. The Bar Staff, wow what can I say?? Awesome every time!! "Coalette" the bartender/server is the best. This is the second time I have had steak ordered custom and she has made it happen. Two steaks med. Rare done perfect every time. Outback Corporate should take notes on these two. Signed Rocket guy/Triple H

while Outback is a chain, each location has its own owners/managers that need to ensure it runs smoothly. 2 star rating is purely for my enjoyment of the food, which at least means the kitchen staff is on par with other Outbacks i have been to. met up with family we hadnt seen for a while, just 4 of us, not a large gathering or anything. we arrived a little early and asked to be seated for 4. they didnt listen and out table was only set for 2 (whatever, they brought extra settings later at my request mind you). our server immediately asked us about drinks and we obliged, myself asking for what flavors of iced tea were available, to which she replied they had none except fountain tea (which i hate). could have sworn i had gotten it before. hm. took a deeper look at the drink menu, wow there is the flavored iced tea right there! maybe she was new or didnt know what i was talking about but i think she didnt want to be bothered, and she snidely commented that there arent any free refills on it, as if it were unthinkable that someone would order a drink that didnt include refills. thank you but i know that obviously since i even know the menu better than you at this point honey. food was good. service was pretty bad. not that the server had ill manners or anything but seriously anytime we talked to her she kept rushing off, cutting us off in the middle of our order, or while we were talking to her and/or making a decision that called for a few seconds of discussion amongst the table. we were in no means taking a large portion of her time, but she just seemed like she couldnt be bothered to stand there and listen to us. newsflash! that is your job. as a server myself, and have trained many other servers, i do not appreciate an establishment that will train and allow their servers to perform in this manner. it was cold and unwelcoming. i was not the only one to notice it and her behavior became a joke at our table since we were all annoyed by it.

This place is a joke. Ordered the cheese fries, coconut shrimp, mahi mahi with grilled asparagus, and shrimp Alfredo. Guess what? The cheese fries had a long strand of hair in it, the coconut shrimp had hair in it, the mahi mahi tasted like a block of salt, the asparagus was burnt (waitress came out with another side of asparagus for me and that was just as burnt), and the shrimp Alfredo also had hair in it! Travel to rehobeth, it's far better!

My boyfriend and I came to the Salisbury Outback location on 06/13/2015 while visiting in the area. Upon arrival, the hostess pointed to the bar area and told us we could sit anywhere. Although it was nice to choose our own seating, it would have been nice if the hostess followed us to our seats, bc she failed to give us any silverware. We sat at our booth for probably 10mins before a waitress came over to greet us and take our drink order. Despite those small mishaps, the food came out at a reasonable time, and our waitress, Kelly, was great. We never had to ask for drink refills; our waitress was on top of it throughout our meal. She definitely went above & beyond to meet our needs. I would recommend this restaurant.

We go to Outback probably about once a month because my husband loves the steaks. The food we have had there is always great. However, the service is usually very sub-par (hence 3 stars). It usually takes a long time for the server to even greet us or say "hey, be with you in a minute". One time we actually timed it and it took over 15 minutes for our server to even acknowledge our presence, while a server in the next section had clearly seen us and never said anything, it looked like she was in a hurry to finish her sidework and get out of there. The only reason we keep going back is because the food is very consistent. But, last night we were with a group of 6 and Brigette was our server. She was absolutely fantastic! 5 stars for her service.

Spend a little more time and drive to the Ocean City location. We love Outback. However, this restaurant does not stand out. When going out to eat, bc of this locations poor quality on numerous visits, its not a contender anymore. The food consistently disappointing. Over cooked, gristle, fatty, small cut steaks, dry chicken, very small salads filled with yellow chunks of romaine lettuce and short on dressing. And should there be an extra charge for the little roach guest that joined our party on top of the booth. We had to be moved. It was a little embarrassing even when we whispered it to our waitress. Go to ocean city! Worth the drive!

Worst Outback ever. Call ahead seating didn't work. They seemed to be confused by everything, not sure if this is newly opened on??? Hopefully they figure their stuff out as they have a built in client base with the hotel sharing the same parking lot.

Very accommodating for a large group of 30. Servers were very good. Food was typical Outback but would definitely return next time in town for softball tournament. When we tried Chilis and Golden Corral, two places you would think would accommodate a large group, we were turned away. And we called 4 hours in advance. Very good staff.

Food is consistently good. This location offers happy hour specials that can't be beat. From opening to 6 p.m., beers, wines and appetizers are all half-off in the bar area. There are not too many places where you can enjoy a ice-cold 22 ounce beer and ahi tuna, BBQ'ed shrimp, or a huge plate of wings, and more, for around $9. The management is competent and friendly, and the barstaff is experienced and friendly.

Disappointing! Don't DoIt! This Outback was nicely located in my hotel's lot and I had a gift card. This should have been a convenient match to feed my steak craving. "Should have been!" I sat at the bar. TV's on a sport talk show with no volume but closed caption. This should be fine but it was during prime time, so please have someone care enough to find a live game. Clearly happy hour ending because the 8 people or so there for cheap food and drinks all dispersed the minute it ended. Team members all lingering around service bar complaining about their restaurant. This all lead to a poor atmosphere. Couldn't hear music. Appetizer = Bloomin Onion, seemed a bit smaller than I remember but tasted good and I got it rung in before HH ended so value was good. Good snack with a featured Magarita from their promotional book. This was an okay start to my experience besides the atmosphere. Meal = Wedge Salad, New York Sirloin. Menu described a few ways they can prepare steak. Bartender never asked! The usual warning was given from an Outback about their meat being steak house temperatures so they try to warn average folks it will be less cooked than what your impression of "medium rare" is. In actuality they are not serving the high end steak house guests so make your temps the same as the chain restaurant level that you serve. Quality = After the appetizer it was all down hill. Lettuce wedge small, bacon very overlooked and fatty. Steak was so tough. I'm assuming they hand cut them because it was very much under weight and about 30% was a gristly fat cap. I could barely chew it. The seasonal veg on the side was 2 tiny carrots and a big hunk of broccoli (not bite size pieces). The broccoli looked as if it was just ripped off of a full head. Lazy prep. Luckily my hunger was satisfied from the appetizer. Value = Very Poor. Besides the HH appetizer I dropped a $25 gift card and spent quite a bit of my own money. No server follow up so I didn't complain. I did comment constructively on their website with no reply. Big Surprise. Once again I realized this below average chain does not match quality with price and for a steak house it is sub par for who they think they are! Door Staff was attentive, no manager present

while Outback is a chain, each location has its own owners/managers that need to ensure it runs smoothly. 2 star rating is purely for my enjoyment of the food, which at least means the kitchen staff is on par with other Outbacks i have been to. met up with family we hadnt seen for a while, just 4 of us, not a large gathering or anything. we arrived a little early and asked to be seated for 4. they didnt listen and out table was only set for 2 (whatever, they brought extra settings later at my request mind you). our server immediately asked us about drinks and we obliged, myself asking for what flavors of iced tea were available, to which she replied they had none except fountain tea (which i hate). could have sworn i had gotten it before. hm. took a deeper look at the drink menu, wow there is the flavored iced tea right there! maybe she was new or didnt know what i was talking about but i think she didnt want to be bothered, and she snidely commented that there arent any free refills on it, as if it were unthinkable that someone would order a drink that didnt include refills. thank you but i know that obviously since i even know the menu better than you at this point honey. food was good. service was pretty bad. not that the server had ill manners or anything but seriously anytime we talked to her she kept rushing off, cutting us off in the middle of our order, or while we were talking to her and/or making a decision that called for a few seconds of discussion amongst the table. we were in no means taking a large portion of her time, but she just seemed like she couldnt be bothered to stand there and listen to us. newsflash! that is your job. as a server myself, and have trained many other servers, i do not appreciate an establishment that will train and allow their servers to perform in this manner. it was cold and unwelcoming. i was not the only one to notice it and her behavior became a joke at our table since we were all annoyed by it.

I took my boyfriend out to dinner tonight for Veterans Day. Our server provided excellent customer service! He was extremely courteous & went out of his way to assure we had a great meal. Thank you Charles!!!!

Been to this Salisbury, Md. Outback about 10x in the last year and a half and have had the best service!! The manager always comes by and says hello as she is friendly and courteous. The Bar Staff, wow what can I say?? Awesome every time!! "Coalette" the bartender/server is the best. This is the second time I have had steak ordered custom and she has made it happen. Two steaks med. Rare done perfect every time. Outback Corporate should take notes on these two. Signed Rocket guy/Triple H

This place is a joke. Ordered the cheese fries, coconut shrimp, mahi mahi with grilled asparagus, and shrimp Alfredo. Guess what? The cheese fries had a long strand of hair in it, the coconut shrimp had hair in it, the mahi mahi tasted like a block of salt, the asparagus was burnt (waitress came out with another side of asparagus for me and that was just as burnt), and the shrimp Alfredo also had hair in it! Travel to rehobeth, it's far better!
