Is Outback expensive?
Outback Steakhouse is considered a mid-range casual dining restaurant with menu items for a wide range of budgets. You could order a signature steak and expect to pay between $25 – $35 per entrees on the higher end. If you want to save money, you could order a smaller 6 oz. sirloin steak combo for under $20. On the budget minded edge of the spectrum, you could order a burger between $13 and $15. The total cost to dine depends on individual preferences.
When you compare the prices against other steakhouse competitors like Ruth’s Chris, the cost to dine at Outback Steakhouse is a lot more affordable. Here are a few examples of the price differences between both restaurants for comparable menu items:
- 6 oz. Filet & Shrimp at Ruth’s Chris: $62.50
- 6 oz. Sirloin with Bloomin’ Onion at Outback Steakhouse: $16.99 (73% less expensive)
- Baked Potato at Ruth’s Chris: $13.00
- Dressed Baked Potato at Outback Steakhouse: $3.99 (69% less expensive)
Of course, these are not exactly apples to apples comparisons. At Ruth’s Chris, the steak is USDA Prime certified steaks that are much more tender than mid-range priced chains. The quality of meats, combined with the level of service and the dining atmosphere is what typically distinguishes a mid-range chain from a high-end one.
![Bloomin' Fried Shrimp](https://foodtruckempire.com/wp-content/uploads/bloomin-fried-shrimp.png)
Bloomin’ Fried Shrimp is a new menu item.
The secret behind Outback’s pricing is that they are one of the biggest buyers of Choice steak. Choice beef is a grade of beef that falls below the highest grade (Prime) but still offers good quality and marbling. Ruth’s Chris only serves Prime beef and that’s one major menu differentiator between the two establishments.
Of course, there are other ways Outback Steakhouse is keeps menu prices down by cutting labor costs. Like so many other restaurants, Outback added self-serve tablets that are placed on each table. These tablets allow diners to order drinks, desserts, or pay their tab. This reduces the amount of wait staff required to run the restaurant. At Ruth’s Chris, you can only order from a human being.
Did Outback Steakhouse Increase Menu Prices?
According to Nation’s Restaurant News, Outback’s parent company, Bloomin’ Brands, announced plans to raise menu prices by 5% in 2022. The brand also owns iconic eateries like Carrabba’s Italian Grill, Bonefish Grill, and Fleming’s Prime Steakhouse & Wine Bar that all nudged their menu prices upward.
The primary reason cited for this price increase is the rising inflation. The costs of most products and labor have been higher than expected. It is a well-known fact that Outback has raised its prices even before this year. The Florida-based chain has increased prices by 3% to fight inflationary pressures in 2021 as well.
How to Save Money at Outback Steakhouse
Even though prices at Outback Steakhouse have gone up the last couple of years there are still some effective ways to save money on every visit. My favorite is the Tuesday and Wednesday meal specials.
Tuesday Tails Special starting at $24.99: The special includes a steamed lobster tail, a center-cut sirloin, a steakhouse potato, and a choice of a side.
Walkabout Wednesday Specialty for $13.99: you can choose a 6 oz center-cut sirloin or grilled chicken on the barbie, plus Aussie fries and a 16 oz domestic draft beer or an ice-cold Coca-Cola® product.

Does Outback give complimentary bread?
What’s a better way to eat than having free food? One of the best reasons to eat at this chain restaurant outside the bloomin’ onion is its free bread. The said dark-colored bread is rumored to be pumpernickel, which is usually served warm and soft on the inside and hard on the outside making it a breakfast meal worth trying when you add include a side of whipped butter.
The best part of this is that the complimentary bread is truly unlimited. If you run out of bread in the middle of your meal, don’t be shy about asking for another basket and take it home in the takeout box. A helpful tip that will surely be useful for your future dining experience is that when you order an Outback takeout, you always get a side of bread too.
