Outback
Tonight I went to Outback Steakhouse with a few friends. Last time I went to an Outback may have been 20 years ago.
Party of five on a Saturday night. We had beers at the bar while we waited maybe 25 minutes to be served. So that was a separate bill. All five of us had various versions of the $17 three course special. I had an 8 ounce sirloin instead of six so paid an extra $3. Choice of soup or salad. Choice of side with the entree. Decent size slice of cheesecake for desert. Herd to beat those prices these days. |

Breakfast today (omelette with sausage on the side and coffee) was $21 with tip, and that's the cheapest place around. Depending on where I am, sometimes lunch is $25 with tip. I go out every day except Sunday. But who cares? I ordered a casket with pockets on the inside just in case there's some left so I can take it with me. |

You old enough to remember when they put a pickled beet slice on the salads? My mom would eat all of them. I hated those things and I had to scrape the dressing off because I was not giving that up.

Cheap meat = cheap prices. It's called Outback because that's where the meat comes from..."outback" of a garbage truck.

Texas Roadhouse has the best deal, get the "early bird" 6 oz sirloin with baked potato, salad, rolls and a drink. The cut tastes like filet mignon and the price is the best special around. $10.99/meal:

THAT's gonna leave a mark! Bob must have his ghost writer filling in!
Haven't been to the Outback in ten-plus years but the value was always there, mainly in the service. Food was fine, but nothing to rave about, but as a place to go as a group and get taken care of without hassle, a good value. Have also done the early bird stuff at Texas Roadhouse, and same deal. You're eating for less than McDonalds would cost, and having good food and good service. As fast food workers get increasingly higher wages due to laws, the fast food places will go automated or simply shut down due to lack of business. I've been seeing that locally. |

I've never been, but can't be a good testament to food quality if they are mostly known for deep frying an onion they haven't even cut completely.

We go there once in a while, maybe a couple times a year. It's not a Michelin (or even Goodyear ) star restaurant, and we don't expect that.
I got a kick out of the sign when the first part burned out one night though. No, not a photochop... |
