I am going to outback steakhouse tomorrow for a fathers day lunch/dinner thing.
I would really prefer to eat less than 550 calories there.
Does anyone know what my options are or could tell me what THEY usually order? :)

If you answer this i will love you forever. I am in recovery for an ED and this is making me anxious because i need to conquer eating at sit down restaurants while also not going crazy.

    I don't know off the top of my head, but I bet they have nutrition info on the website!
    Good luck :-)

    Being a vegan I wouldn't eat there :smile: But, some folks here at MFP have done the work for you.

    I eat the small steak dinner with a baked potato, no salad because that increases the calories

    Outback is one of the easier places to eat well!

    Yes:
    Lobster tails.
    Chicken on the barbie (no BBQ sauce)
    The smallest sirloin.
    Asparagus is a good low cal side.

    No:
    Skip the bread.
    Careful with the salad dressing.
    Forget the bloomin' onion. :sad:
    And no beer. :drinker:

    They actually have some great choices. I had the 6 ounce sirloin, grilled asparagus and a salad (I didn't have the lightest dressing) and it was a very reasonable meal. They do list all of the nutrition info on their site, and even allow you to build a meal, and it shows you what the cals for the whole meal would be. I find it to be a pretty stress free place to eat because you can eat "normal" and it's good.

    Outback Steakhouse - Side Bread & Butter, 1/6 Loaf 78 8 4 2 0 0
    Outback Steakhouse - Grilled Asparagus, 1 serving 52 3 4 2 0 0
    Outback Steakhouse - 6 oz Outback Special (Sirloin), 6 oz (Meat only) 254 0 13 37 0 0
    Outback Steakhouse - House Salad With Honey Mustard Dressing No Croutons, 1 side salad 307 28 20 7 0 0
    Add Food Quick Tools 691 39 41 48 0 0

    You can omit the cheese from the salad to save more calories, or get their sundried tomato dressing, which is much lower calorie. Obviously the bread and butter is optional. I believe you could really easily get under 550, just by omitting the bread and butter and getting the lowest calorie salad option.
