Outback Steakhouse – Cary

Outback Steakhouse sits on Walnut Street in Cary, part of the Australian-themed chain that built its name on steak and the Bloomin’ Onion. The dining room does the job for a family dinner or a table of friends after work.

The menu is the familiar one: steaks off the grill, a tender filet at the center of it, plus the starters and sides people come back for. You can eat in, order online for pickup, or put your name on the waitlist before leaving the house. Catering is available for larger groups.
