Plates are always clean, the beginning of the bar has really good salad.Always tossed great, always covered in sauce.Just perfectly. Chicken in the meat in any instance that I have gotten any serving from has been so tender, juicy. The sweet treats are something to melt for. All the refreshers and drinks are just perfectly devised with nice notes of flavors of what they are.The teas, the hot teas, the cold teas. Soda, fountain seems to always be perfectly carbonated. They even have a soft serve ice cream machine. The staff is amazing at their cooking. Note never left disappointed.

My husband & I LOVE their steaks!! 😋 They're seasoned just right & cooked perfectly. If not, then they'll make it right for you. Just tell your waiter or waitress. We love their WallyBeDarned frozen drink, Coconut Shrimp, Alice Springs Chicken, & Mango Iced Tea. I love their Caesar Salad! And ask for extra dressing on the side. My husband gets the house salad with Tangy Tomato dressing. Fair warning... nix the Fettuccine Alfredo. It's just not up to what we Americans expect. But there's so much more to choose from, love & enjoy! The service is excellent as well as friendly & accommodating! You'll have a very enjoyable experience. Also, remember to go to their website to get on the waiting list! You'll be glad you did!! 🤗

My husband ordered us food togo on Christmas eve. He ordered me a ribeye and it was the best ribeye i have ever had. I also work at longhorn steak house and i love our ribeye there. However the ribeye i had tonight was 11/10 and the temperature was perfect. We will be back again soon! Merry Christmas!

What can I say this was a wonderful meal. I went there on veterans Day and outback steakhouse went out of their way and made me a beautiful steak meal with a salad, a steak and a baked potato and a cool drink all a while. I sat next to other veterans and had good conversation. I truly enjoyed my evening there. The bartender because I sat at the bar was wonderful. I made her charge me for my mushrooms on top of my steak. She didn't want to but I made her so that I could give her a tip in which I tipped her heavily. She deserved every penny. I had a wonderful meal. Thank you out back steakhouse for recognizing us veterans. This veteran surely did. Appreciate it. Sincerely, Joseph Hall of Hutto Texas

The food was basic and was good. The only reason for the missing star was because even though it was just a baked potato and basic salad, it took 15-20 minutes for the food to arrive.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Outback Round Rock deserves every bit of a 10-star review! The food here is always fresh, perfectly prepared, and consistently delicious. Every time I come in, the staff provides excellent customer service, greeting me with genuine kindness and making me feel welcome. I especially want to recognize the management and entire team for always getting my order right and going above and beyond to make the experience smooth and enjoyable. It’s clear they care about their customers and take pride in what they do. A special shoutout to Payle — it’s always such a pleasure to see her! She serves with a smile every time, and that positive energy makes the dining experience even better. Thank you to the whole Outback Round Rock family — you’ve made this one of my absolute favorite places to visit! PS: For always getting my wings done right🥰

So glad we decided to try it again. Had no idea they moved location to IKEA area and updated the design! It’s gorgeous now and in a really nice area. Got rid of all that cheesey dark decor. It’s beautiful and the food is better than ever. My filet was like butter. Good non-alcohol drink choices. Excellent service and friendliness. And the prices are VERY reasonable, especially for Austin area. Will definitely be going again.

One day we will take photos of our food. We love the food so much we just start eating. Beautiful dining room and staff is friendly. The bar is great too. Fun drinks alcoholic and non alcoholic. Great meal deals too. We love Mac cheese, Tasmanian chili, sweet potatoes, chicken on the Barbie, seared tuna salad, Victoria filet, steak, cheesecake, Caesar salad, and lobster legs are delicious. Worth a try!

Andrew Prather

First time eating here in person and I was amazed. Custom service started with a wonderful greeting at the door. We were promptly seated. This location is super clean with incredible staff. Food was really good and again the service was top notch. We will be back soon. Thank you for setting such a high bar for other restaurants in the area.

Ali Yashar

It was an absolutely fantastic dining experience! The food was amazing, and the service was top-notch. The staff was incredibly friendly, attentive, and always ready to offer great recommendations. This was the first time my wife has ever told me she truly enjoyed a steak, which speaks volumes about the quality and preparation. Every detail, from the flavors to the atmosphere, was perfect. We will definitely be coming back!

What an experience! Me and my wife had the pleasure of eating here during a soft opening and WOW what an experience! The manager Ray is ON IT! This gentleman knows how to run a restaurant! We came in for dessert because it was my wife's Bday, and Ray made it happen! Our server Raelyn is a pro! And we were able to meet the manager Lyndsey from another location, she is amazing! and made our experience even better. Oh.....and the food! I almost forgot!!! THE BEST!! The steak was cooked to perfection, and juicy as all get out! My wife had the pasta and loved it. Then the dessert!! The brownie and ice cream was perfect! Thank you Outback crew! The new go-to for dinner. 🥩 🎂 🍝

Everything about our visit was fantastic. Bar drinks came out before our waters even made it, and it wasn't because the waters were slow. Fried mushrooms seemed to come straight out of the fryer and were absolutely delicious. Our meals were all hot and really good as well. We arrived (7:50 on a Friday night), were seated, ordered, ate, added dessert, and were cashing out within 55 minutes. Definitely recommend this location!

Jazlyn Wilder

This Outback provided one of the best dining experiences I’ve ever had! The atmosphere was amazing, such good vibes from everyone! Their team works together so well to make sure everyone has an over-the-top experience! Everything at this Outback gets a 10/10 from me. The hosts were so welcoming, our server Lane was great, food was perfect, and the experience was genuinely a memorable one!

Dimassi's offers a wide variety of Mediterranean salads, sides, and hot dishes. I particularly enjoyed the hummus, couscous,tzatziki, garlic naan and dolmas. Don't skip out on the desserts. I enjoyed the baklava and rice pudding. Friendly suggestion, maybe offer Ka'ak Bi Tamer😉☺️

Nena Salinas

Had a great time, server was very attentive. Food was good as well. Host had an attitude, put my number wrong and got upset when i didnt receive any text message updates that our table was ready. Overall would rate everything 4 out of 5.

I have been to their south location several times. Food is great and so is staff. They enforce rules on everyone wearing gloves. Here, no body was wearing gloves including staff who was also eating from buffet. I love the dessert namoura. It’s usually much softer at south location and I like that but here it was very hard and it felt stale. Yuck. Spicy humus tastes very bland. It’s not the case at south location. I am so disappointed. Giving three stars as the number of food choices is same as south location. Salads were nice and so was falafel and pita bread. But I won’t be going there again.

All the food is cold, looked pretty old, not fresh. None of the employees looked like they were actually trying to make sure the food is hot and fresh, it's not like we went at closing time but we came at 7, Monday night, so they should have been checking if things needed to be refilled. There is a good variety of food, however it is lacking a lot including freshness, and flavor. There is basically zero service at all, almost none, the staff would just randomly be staring, it seemed very unprofessional if I'm being honest. The food was bland, and cold, I didn't enjoy it at all. A lot of the food was empty, and the pita bread was so hard to eat. The atmosphere was okay, it was very clean, and looks nice. The south austin dimassis's is much better than this one. The only thing I really enjoyed was the cone ice cream. I probably won't be coming back here again.

The food was flavorful with a huge variety everything from Mediterranean salads to fried chicken, pizza, and desserts like baklava and rice pudding. Drinks, tea, and even cone ice cream were unlimited, which was a hit with the kids! Unfortunately, the dining area was extremely hot and humid, which made it hard to enjoy the meal. The bathrooms were small, not very clean, and felt unsafe. If they improve the AC and restroom facilities, this could be a go-to buffet spot. For now, I’d say 3/5.

The buffet isn’t too pricey however we found the quality and the taste of the food to be just about OK. It’s definitely worth a visit however, I’m not sure this restaurant can be one of our go to when it comes to Mediterranean food.

I have eaten at Dimassi's for over 15 years at the 183 location. Being closer to my house we decided to give this location a try. They have locations in Houston as well. First off, want to start off by saying that the parking situation is kind of interesting. We parked on the south side of the building closest to the door where most people park on the north side of the building as the entrance faces 35. The first thing you notice is that the buffet is one long line and no open oven. At the 183 location it is a square with a sidebar attached with an open fire oven. Something we noticed was all of the tables are really close to each other compared to the 183 location. Especially the rough closest to the food line. At the 183 location nobody is close to the food. Everybody's at least double the distance from anybody getting themselves food, which is a stark difference. Because of the single line formation, people are waiting for extended periods of time while people are making choices instead of having the option to move around because the whole line queues up. With the whole line queued, it's basically a standstill. Unfortunately, a lot of the line items were also exhausted from the line or empty. Some of the staple items took as much as 10 minutes to replenish. You would watch people walk by certain sections of a food every 2 to 3 minutes. Looking for the item of desire without any luck. When the food was replenished it was in small increments and usually was exhausted once the line did move. Also notice the lamb shake is by request at this location instead of available on the buffet as it is on 183. The drinks were noticeably different from the 183 location. The rose water was less rose and more sweet. The mint lemonade was not minty and very sweet. The desert bar also was lackluster compared to the 183 location. All the baklava was not uniformed and half the normal size of the 183 location. I had to fond a normal size for comparison. Overall, the experience was very disappointing compared to the 183 location. The 183 location is very well polished off as it's been there for a long time. They have more staff more Cooks more floor help. I think the biggest pet peeve was the sun was beaming into the restaurant and there were no window blinds or any dressings to address it. And there's no tint on the window. So good heat also comes through with the blindness. If you have the means to drive to 183, do so. It will be better. If you are eating here for the first time, congratulations it's good food. I promise the service will get polished. *Too small, cramped *Lack of staple food on the line on time or in quantity *Odd parking *Blinding/heat windows *Feel like Dimassi's lite *Bread suffered.

The steak was good but not good enough for the price. Very nice service and a descent atmosphere. This is a "I need meat now" place because a. I'm too lazy to cook it myself. Or b. No way I'm paying that much for a real Steak house. Nothing bad. Just about average once in a while place.

I was in the mood for a steak night with some drinks and came across Outback Steakhouse, which had a 4.9-star rating. The place had a nice ambiance, and despite it being a Friday night, we were able to get a table easily. There was plenty of parking available as well. We started with drinks and cocktails — they were just okay, but noticeably light on alcohol, which may explain the reasonable prices. I tried both the steak and chicken steak, along with their special potato. Overall, the food was decent but nothing remarkable. From a food perspective, I’d rate it 3 to 4 stars, with the drinks earning a similar score.

We visited this restaurant for the first and definitely the last time. The entire experience was disappointing, from the pricing to the food quality, cleanliness, and customer service. Pricing & Policies • What a way to lose customers: not only by overcharging them, but also by refusing to let them take their scraps home. Instead, they charge per pound, for your leftovers, often more than what you would eat in the buffet itself. We didn't want to throw food out or leave them on the table like everyone else. • The cost was shockingly high: over $115 total, (over $10 for tip, which no one deserved or earned, over $8 tax and over $25 for our leftover scarps), for three people. For the quality we received, this was nowhere near worth it. • We ended up paying an extra $25 just to take home our leftover scraps, including a small cup of broth. This policy is unreasonable and exploitative. The funny part is, my husband left a tip, though I don’t understand why. There was absolutely no service, it was entirely self-service. No one cleared the tables, and customer service was nonexistent. Food Quality • Some dishes were edible, but many were oily, bland, or tasted artificial. • Several items didn’t taste authentic at all. You could tell the chicken came from frozen, rubbery and not fresh, tough to cut, and unpleasant to eat. • The pizza was stale and sat out for over 30 minutes without being refreshed. By the time new pizzas were finally brought out, everyone was already full. • Desserts were disappointing: the rose water flavor was unpleasant, and the chocolate ice cream tasted watered down and fake. Cleanliness • When we arrived, the table next to us still had dirty dishes on it that were never cleared. Later, another group left, and their table also remained untouched. Throughout the more than 45 minutes we were there, multiple tables sat dirty with plates and utensils left behind, staff should have been monitoring and cleaning them regularly. • The lack of attention to cleanliness makes the environment feel neglected and unprofessional. Customer Service • There is essentially no customer service. So, don’t expect staff coming to ask you anything. The process is: walk in, grab a plate, serve yourself, and pay on the way out. • No one checked in, asked how things were going, or offered assistance. • Every time we got up, the host was sitting down across from the host desk on her phone and when she decided to eat, no one was at the host desk. The atmosphere felt cold and unwelcoming. While staff do have the right to eat and rest, doing so during a full house on a Saturday sends the wrong message. Guests should be greeted, asked how everything is, or whether it’s their first time visiting. Instead, staff being on their phones, and no customer service was offered. This gives the impression that customers are not a priority. Maybe I grew up in a different era, with respect. Overall Experience • The food left us feeling unwell, extremely oily dishes, it caused us severe phlegm and stomach pain. • The taste was not authentic, and the quality was far below expectations for the price. • The combination of overpriced food, poor service, lack of cleanliness, and unfair leftover charges made this visit extremely disappointing. Final Thoughts This restaurant is overpriced, lacks cleanliness, offers poor service, and serves food that doesn’t taste fresh or authentic. Charging customers extra for scraps is the final insult. We were shocked and disappointed by the entire experience. For us, this was the first and last visit — we will not be returning. NOTE: They probably didn’t take the plastic container into consideration. I measured the leftover food once we arrived home, and the amount was very different from how they weigh it, but their method I'm sure over charged. The receipt shows to go, it was leftovers.

Review Title: Great Food, Poor Planning – Frustrating Experience Let me start with the good: the food is fantastic. No complaints there. Fresh, flavorful, and worth every bite. But the overall experience was ruined by one of the worst building layouts I’ve ever seen. The front door is practically on the I-35 feeder road, with no nearby parking. To even reach it, you’re forced to walk all the way around the building. There’s a door at the top of the handicap ramp—which could have easily served as the main entrance—but instead, they’ve slapped a sign on it directing you to keep going… all the way around. Seriously? Accessibility is an afterthought here, and that’s unacceptable, especially for a brand-new establishment. This could have been addressed during construction, but clearly wasn't a priority. Inside, the design continues to baffle. They clearly spent money on aesthetics—like the fancy white tile behind the food bar—but it amplifies noise like a gymnasium. Good luck having a normal conversation at your table. It’s chaotic and exhausting. Summary: Food: Amazing. Access: Ridiculous. Acoustics: Awful. Atmosphere: Loud and uncomfortable. I won’t be coming back. If they ever fix the entrance and do something about the noise, I’d reconsider. But right now, it feels like all the thought went into the food, and none into the experience of actually dining here.

We visited Outback for a post-Christmas lunch and the whole meal went from bad to worse. It started with the loaf of bread being frozen in the middle. They did replace it with a better one. We all ordered Caesar salads. The dressing was so full of anchovies that we couldn’t eat them. They replaced two of them with side salads. I asked for ranch dressing and they brought me something different. Then the steaks and potatoes. None of the steaks were cooked correctly. My ribeye was tasteless and hard as leather. The manager was kind enough to replace it. The second one was still not cooked enough and the extra seasoning was tons of pepper. The Delmonico ribeye, very expensive, was so full of gristle that it couldn’t be eaten. The sirloin was also half gristle. The entire meal was so disappointing. We have had an entire meal be so bad. The wait person was apologetic and the manager tried to make things right and he did comp our meal. That’s why I gave two stars. Just an unfortunate outing but I doubt we will return.

Not the best experience in Outback Steakhouse in Round Rock. Way too long to wait for the main dish, more than one hour and a half and it was nothing special. Cheese fries and burger were good, the other dishes could be much better. Too many flavour in dishes, didn’t like the sauce in steak salad, too heavy and lots of garlic taste. In other steakhouses you choose the sauce and it comes separate so you can add how much you want, this sauce ruined the salad and the meat taste. Same situation with cesar salad. My husband didn’t like shrimps at all. Even coke tasted more as water, not tasty at all. Restrooms are dirty unfortunately. Very dissatisfied, my expectations based on most of reviews were higher than what we had. Will not back there anymore.

The interior of this restaurant is so bright, it reminds me of a stadium. It is not cozy at all . Check out my pics and that will sum up the food. Notice how they place huge chunks of onions in the pans to make them look full. The Greek salad had Roma tomatoes cut in thirds. The spicy hummus was overwhelmed by a paprika/Chile blend that was inedible. The soups were bland. The grilled eggplant was dry and unseasoned. The desert consisted of an instant banana pudding, rice pudding like baby poo, dry semolina cakes, and thin baklava that was simply not good. The only thing I enjoyed was the roasted chicken thighs. The karak tea had potential, but there was only a sip left in the container. The front hostess was on her phone most of the time, and people occasionally came out from the kitchen to tend the buffet. All this for $24.98 a person. No way! We will not be back. One more thing. They post that they charge $9.99 per lb for excessive food wasting, but what does one do if the food sucks?

Jeremy Oberg

Check your receipt! Outback started doing this thing where they try to add 2.99 to your bill for playing games on the table top machine. We never even touched the thing except after our waiter touched it and asked me to enter my phone number to pull up my rewards account to see the walk about Wednesday special. This is the second time this has happened. Waiter tried to get me to pay without bringing a check. Manager gaslight me saying i did play games and i had to acknowledge the 2.99 prompt to play the games. Neither was true. Such a scummy scammy thing to do. Didn’t post anything after the first time it happened, but after the second time, and the manager gaslighting me, I am sharing my Incredibly disappointing experience.

I've been to outback several times, but not recently and I'd be hard pressed to return. We went on veterans day for the special free veterans meal. It came with a soup, salad, entree and cheesecake for desert. Cup of soup was small but good. Salad was ok too. The steak however was without doubt the worst I've ever had. Though it was cooked medium rate, it looked terrible and was really tough and tasteless . The 6 Oz sirloin didn't look like a steak, but more like a miniature pot roast. Looking back I should have asked for another, but hindsight is 20 20. Desert was another disaster. Cheesecake was offered but they ran out. We were asked to wait until the manager returned with a new supply. We waited a while then had to leave so I asked for a substitute, willing to pay the difference for something higher priced. I was told no substitutions. We got a card to return and get the cheesecake at our next visit. So no cheesecake for me, and this veteran thing didn't work. Overall, we were very disappointed since it's been good in the past and generally gets good reviews.

We went for diner in. No Outback bread, no Cheese cake, no Chocolate cake. The said to us that last night everything was gone. They charged us with out offering us , the Cheese cake, we ordered the $20,00 menu with three courses.They charge us with out brought us the cake. When I asked fot it, they responded they do not have it. They offer us a Chocolate cake and the gave a a little piece of Brownie. I ordered my steak with out pepper and was so spice . I couldn't eat it. Never come back to that place. Thanks
