Hey everyone - I work at Outback Steakhouse, so please keep the following things in mind when you go:
the steamed veggies and steamed broccoli have gluten in the seasoning. You must request that they put no seasoning and no butter on any vegetables
the grilled veggies that come with the Grillers, on the other hand, are gluten-free
Many gluten-free menus at individual outbacks have not changed this but MUSTARD VINIAGRETTE is NOT gluten-free (it used to be). You can have any other salad dressing, but recently the MV one was forbidden and not all outbacks have changed this information (The manager may not even know)
also, normally gluten-free people consider eating mushrooms, fries, onions, and rice. All these are offered as sides at Outback but NONE of them are gluten-free - stick to the baked, sweet, or mashed potato. (The Alice Springs Chicken and Royal Port Fresh Catch have mushrooms, but these are gluten-free)
Good luck and enjoy- it's very very good food worry-free, and I have it all the time. Just remember most of the waiters or waitresses won't know what gluten is at all, so have patience when explaining it to them! Oh - and don't bother looking through appetizers. Just know ahead of time that the only one we can eat is the Grilled Shrimp on the Barbie, which you must ask to be served without the garlic bread it usually comes on.
