"The sandwiches were delicious and hot like always. My fries were hot and meaty, not a lot of hard end pieces that I couldn't chew. I was very happy. "
"The Arby's orange dream shake was awful, it tasted like fruity pebbles, and milk, which is not what I was expecting. Would definitely not order that again. The one at scooters is so much better. My fries were way too crispy like almost burnt crispy. The sandwich was OK but did not have as much roast beef and cheddar as usual, really really disappointed"

"I was pleasantly surprised with how great this meal was! The steak was substantial and cooked perfectly. The salad was a good size, even the roll was good! I will order this again soon, maybe tonight!"
"Chips for the spinach dip were stale. House Salad was wilted, brown, soggy, croutons mushy, cheese mushy, cucumbers water logged and although I asked for no onions, salad had onion taste like they just picked out the onions. The dressing was supposed to be ranch and it was more of a garlic dressing. Terrible! Rock Hampton ribeye was grisly and tasted spoiled so I stopped eating it and threw it out. What a waste of our $100 order!!! My husband's sirloin was like a hockey puck. Hard, dried out and only 5 oz instead of being an 8 oz steak. We weighed it because we couldn't believe how small it was. The broccoli was the only edible food in spite of being overcooked. The bread was dry and stale that it crumbled when you pulled it apart. Do not order from Outback. So disappointing. This restaurant needs to go out of business now! It used to be great and now it sucks!"

"Chicken was yummy and crispy but no where near spicy but it was still so good. I ordered the 12 piece and I didn't know it was just 6 pieces of the drumette and 6 pieces of the flat with tip. Kind of small for $20. It'd be better if it came with rice for that price."
"1981 K Chicken Bulgogi Over Rice with Fried Egg was the highlight of my night! Great flavors, fresh, large portions, and (once again) great flavors! But I knew that going in as I've eaten at the restaurant before; couldn't resist it while house/pet-sitting! Will definitely order or be in the restaurant again!"

"I never complain, but the buffalo Mac and cheese was straight up bad. It hardly had any cheese sauce maybe a quarter of the noodles had the cheese on it. The Brussels sprouts were not seasoned. Unsure if it's because we ordered DoorDash or what, they're always solid when we go in. "

"Large Seafood Boil was good portion, quality, and well packaged. Flavor was too sweet for our liking (kinda like asian zing from BWW), we couldn't finish eating it. Small Jalapeño Bombers (5 pieces) were good but only came with 4 not 5. Small French Fries were more like tiny or kids portion, but were good. Strawberry CheesecakeDouble Chocolate Cake were good in taste. Only issue was the Double Chocolate Cake was too dry."
"The 10 pc was fried to perfection, the lemon pepper was applied by someone who doesn't "cook", they "nourish the body". To sum up, the quality of the chicken cuts as well as the final product is something that could be taken to ANY gathering of strangers OR family, and will surely stand tall as the staple meat of the meal with ease. Paw-Paw and Granny... Would approve."
