Took the family for a meal at outback jacks as we like to choose places where the kids can play so we can actually eat. Very small play area hardly worth it. Meals for the price were small. Kids meals were very pricy considering all the other places we have been they were mostly free with adult meal. Drinks were... More

This is a place for people who think eating half a cow, or a whole pig, is funny. You could add this place a Darwin attraction: come see tourists stuff themselves with oversized servings of fat and protein! I for one loved watching a two legged heart attack eat a full plate of pork ribs, and follow it with a... More

Yummy! We had a family dinner that everyone enjoyed! Friendly staff who were quick to accommodate our every request! Great steaks, salads and chips! They even gave the birthday boy a free surprise and sang him a song to help make the night special! Loved it! Thanks guys! More

Just wanted to make the distinction because I have not dined at the city venue - and am told that it is better than the new one at Palmerston .... My first experience with Outback Jack's will probably be my last, although I feel I really should try the one in the city first. I ordered a fillet steak, and... More

Awesome steaks. you get to choose your own, ( if you know anything about meat, ALWAYS go for the greyest piece! it means the meat has been aged!) the calamari entree was also decent. Vibe was a bit slack but service was good More

The food was excellent and came in large portions. The cocktails were also fantastic. The cost was moderate but not out of the ordinary for Darwin. More

Poor service, poorly cooked meals - they have a large poster allegedly showing what your steak should look like so you can order how you like it - means NOTHING! The meals took ages to arrive - again the time suggested when our order was placed meant NOTHING! When our meals finally arrived - untimely & steak being nothing like... More

The staff here are really lazy. They are standing behind the bar talking instead of asking if we wanted a drink etc. The steak was excellent though so that made up for it. I had the rib on the bone and it was cooked well and very tender. A little on the pricey side as well but that is Darwin... More

I ordered a medium eye fillet and it was more medium rare. But having said that, the steak itself was tender and juicy. The side salad and chips were very nice. As other reviewers have noted the wait staff consist of backpackers. I found that to be true of nearly every restaurant in Darwin. I thought the staff were friendly,... More
