Outback Steakhouse

⚠️ Risks & cross-contamination

• The restaurant does not have a dedicated gluten-free kitchen, and cross-contact with gluten-containing foods can occur in normal kitchen operations due to shared cooking and preparation areas.
• They emphasize education for staff and a protocol when gluten-friendly items are ordered, including hand washing, glove changes, and using clean equipment, plus special ordering instructions for the chefs.
• While there is active involvement from a registered dietitian to validate gluten-friendly ingredients and menus, items are not certified gluten-free, which means a risk of trace gluten remains.
• Acknowledged gluten-friendly items extend to common categories (salads, steak, chicken, seafood, ribs, vegetables, and a dessert), but none are labeled as explicitly safe for celiac individuals.
