Outback Steakhouse - Merrillville

The food is delicious and the waiter was excellent! he kept our drinks full w/o asking and on his feet sure we had what we needed. I recommend to the waiter more than anything else. Unfortunately he didn't give us his name, but he was a nicer man who had a tattoo on his neck.

I preferred the old Outback look and feel, but having stopped at the new location a couple of times, the brighter feel is good. Of course, the bread is a must. Food is the same. Tasty Outback food. Large, plenty of steak and such options and the service is good.

The food was excellent. Our waiter Christopher was excellent. There seem to be a lot of empty tables though and a lot of people waiting, I guess they were short staffed not sure.

Slightly above average. Shrimp appetizer was very bland looking and tasting. The shrimp looked gray in color. My wife had salmon. The salmon was way smaller

Went here last night with the intention of getting and eating a decent steak. I've only been to an outback twice before. One in Chicago and the other in Minneapolis. Both times were great so I had the same expectation walking into this one. My date and I had each ordered the 15oz. Ribeye steak. Hers medium and mine medium rare. Hers came out good but when my steak hit the table there was clearly something wrong. Almost half of my steak was fat!!!! I understand there will be some fat and gristle on every steak as I was a chef for 10+ years and grilled thousands of steaks myself but this one never should've hit my table!! 15oz steak ordered, received 7oz of fat!!! The cook should've tossed this one out!! I will not be going back needless to say!
