    Never had bad service like this before at this site. Garlic Bread wasn’t cooked. Steak wasn’t cooked how I asked. So many workers standing around and was hard to get there attention to give us service.

    Thank you for accommodating us. Especially for the takeaway for my wife (Mrs Hannaford) on her opening night at WHSPAC as Ursula in The Little Mermaid. Tickets still available, runs until Sunday 😉

Please pass along our congratulations playing Ursula sounds amazing! Wishing her and the WHSPAC team all the best for a fantastic run of The Little Mermaid. Hope to see you back with us again soon!

    Upon arrival the service was excellent. We were tended to straight away. But once we had our meals we were totally forgotten about. We waved down a waiter to ask for more drinks. They never came. So we waved down a different waiter and then 45 minutes later we received our 2 glasses of wine. Yes it was busy but it doesn’t take 45 plus minutes to pour 2 glasses of wine. Food was nice but expensive for what we ordered.
    Outback Steakhouse - WollongongResponded 7 days ago
    Thank you for sharing your feedback. We're glad you enjoyed the start of your visit and found the food nice. We sincerely apologize for the delays in service after your meal. While we were experiencing a very busy period, we understand that attentive service should never be compromised. Please know we’re addressing this with our team to ensure a better experience for all our guests. We truly appreciate your visit and hope to welcome you back again soon.

    Food good as always, service was lacking tonight to the point we got water as we finished meals. Drinks we ordered only half came wait so long with them sitting at bar we went and picked up ourselves. Normally service is much better.
    Outback Steakhouse - WollongongResponded 7 days ago
    Thank you for your honest feedback. We're happy to hear you enjoyed the food as always, but we're very sorry to learn that the service fell short during your visit. This is not the experience we want for our guests, and we truly appreciate you bringing it to our attention. We were busier than usual, but that’s no excuse we’re addressing this with our team to ensure timely drink service and more attentive care moving forward. We value your continued support and hope to provide the great service you’ve come to expect on your next visit.

    Very busy and loud, someone was having a birthday so that’s understandable. Staff were nice. My only disappointment was that I found a dark hair in my mashed potatoes.
    Outback Steakhouse - WollongongResponded 7 days ago
    Thank you for your feedback! We're glad to hear you found the staff friendly and understand the lively atmosphere during a birthday celebration. That said, we’re very sorry about the hair in your mashed potatoes that’s certainly not the experience we aim to provide. We appreciate you bringing it to our attention and will follow up with our team to ensure this doesn’t happen again. We hope to have the chance to serve you better next time.
