Outback Steakhouse - (Near Sebring, FL)

Jrock A stupendous brunch waits just at the end of Palafox. While not advertised well there is an early morning happy hour from 7a-10a, Sunday to Thursday, I think. While the cocktails are not elite they are half price during happy hour. The decor is an eclectic hodgepodge of random semi-Cajun rigmarole scattered about the wall. The service is provided by lost souls dead in the eye but friendly and courteous enough to be sufficient. Just kidding, the vibrancy of the staff radiates through the establishment. The cocktails are a touch slow coming from the bar, but not overly so. The food comes out piping hot and fast on the other hand. This place is about the food! The first good tater tots I’ve had in about four years. Super crispy perfectly salty and just a delightful crunch. The Tasso cream sauce was divine, if it wasn’t Cajun it would be called a gravy. There was a special of pork belly on grits with fried onions which was definitely drool worthy. The grits before cutting the egg were a touch texturally off, but the perfectly cooked egg let the velvety yolk perfectly complement the meal. It’s not fine dining but it is well above greasy spoon. The food was moorish and crave able.

Lexy Wright Look, I don’t think many people go to buffets for amazing food - it’s all about quantity and speed. With that said, this is one of the most unique buffets I’ve ever been to. It was clean and upscale, not the usual hole in the wall. This clearly used to be a Golden Carrol (love the nod to its past with the name Golden Chopsticks) as the buffet followed the long assembly line approach. Salad bar selection was outstanding. Tons of sushi options. Crab legs included! Food was actually hot (rare for a buffet) and I must say the coconut sauce shrimp was actually fantastic. Hot and sour soup was too spicy for me (I’m a whimp) but the others in my party loved it. There’s a little something for everyone.

Wendy Murphy Daudt Gutkin We love this establishment and stop in EVERY time we are in the area! Their Cuban Bread and pastries are fantastic!! My husband got the Ox Tail which was great! That was a new taste for me. I got my regular- a Cuban Sandwich and Café Con Leche. Service is attentive. We always get pastries to go for sharing later - usually a mix, but the Guava is a must!

Daniel Rohe We did not think we had such good Thai food in Wakulla. We had the pad see ew, red curry, clear soup, miso soup and a roll. Everything was 10/10.

Kira The food was absolutely amazing and came out so fast. The restaurant was very clean and organized along with having a welcoming atmosphere. The restroom was also clean and you can tell that it is cleaned regularly. The staff here were super friendly and attentive. Everyone smiles when they passed by my table and even waved. On top of the staff being so friendly, the managers (Jessica and Glory) were amazing. The personally came up to my table and made sure everything was to my satisfaction. I will definitely be a returning customer!

Claribel Reyes We love coming to this restaurant. It is our go to Mexican place in the area. Service is always great and everyone is always very nice. The fresh guacamole is delicious. My favorite item on the menu are the enchiladas. I’ve tried them all but my favorite are the chicken and spinach. The margarita’s are tasty and made just right every time. The food is always consistently good. We’ve never had anything we didn’t like here.
