When looking for vegan options at Outback Steakhouse, we couldn’t determine which, if any, are vegan so we reached out to them and confirmed they do have a few.
They sent us a completely vegan and vegetarian menu with a good amount of detail. Jackpot!
So, while we’re pretty excited that the thought and effort has been put into making a guide for vegetarians and vegans, the actual options themselves are a bit bare. You have a few salads that can be modified or sides.
You absolutely can put together a meal though if you happen to be at an Outback Steakhouse; especially one that will probably be pretty healthy.

Our Picks
Ryan’s Pick: It’s been quite a while since I’ve been to an Outback. Not gonna lie though, I used to love those Bloomin’ Onions. If we end up at an Outback I’ll update here.
Jen’s Pick: I haven’t been to an Outback in at least 10 years but am incredibly happy to know there is an option if we happened to be at one.
