Outback Steakhouse Allergen Menu and Ingredients

The Outback Steakhouse allergen menu covers 178 items and tracks nine declarations: eggs, fish, milk, peanuts, sesame, shellfish, soybean, tree nuts and wheat. Milk leads by a wide margin, appearing on 148 of them. Butter reaches almost every plate in a steakhouse kitchen.

Shellfish turns up on 34 items of the Outback Steakhouse allergen menu, which surprises people who read the chain as a beef restaurant. Fish sits behind 23 declarations, most of them anchovy in the Caesar dressing rather than a fillet. Thirteen items declare nothing at all.

Outback Steakhouse Allergen Menu Item by Item

Declarations on the Outback Steakhouse allergen menu follow the plate as it leaves the kitchen, not the protein alone. A sirloin declares milk because it is finished with butter. Adding a coconut shrimp mate changes the row to shellfish, tree nuts, egg and wheat.

The Contains column names what an item declares outright. It does not describe what a shared grill, a shared fryer or a shared sauce station can transfer. Item names here match those on the full menu with calories, and cross-contact gets its own section below.

Outback Steakhouse Appetizer Allergens

Bloomin’ Onion declares egg, milk and wheat, which is the batter rather than the onion. Ten of the twelve carry wheat. Shellfish appears on three of them, all shrimp, while sesame turns up on the side bread and nine rows carry milk.

Outback Steakhouse Soup and Side Salad Allergens

Eighteen of the twenty-two declare milk. Caesar Side Salad with Dressing carries fish, because anchovy sits in the dressing. Tangy Tomato Dressing, Light Balsamic Vinaigrette and Mustard Vinaigrette declare nothing at all, and twelve rows declare soy.

Outback Steakhouse Entrée Salad Allergens

Six of the fourteen entrée salads declare fish, every one of them built on Caesar dressing. Brisbane Caesar Salad with Grilled Shrimp adds shellfish on top of that fish declaration. Egg and milk each appear on twelve rows. Two entrée salad dressings declare nothing at all, which makes them the safest additions here.

Outback Steakhouse Steak Allergens

Nineteen of the twenty-four steaks on the Outback Steakhouse allergen menu declare milk, which tracks the butter finish. Twenty carry no wheat declaration at all. Bone In Ribeye 18 oz and Melbourne Porterhouse 22 oz declare nothing, and the three Classic Prime Rib weights declare soy and wheat.

Outback Steakhouse Steak and Mate Combo Allergens

All thirty-nine combinations declare milk, and eighteen declare shellfish. Grilled shrimp mates bring fish and sesame together. Coconut shrimp mates swap those for tree nuts and wheat, another eight rows against the grilled shrimp’s eight. Soy runs through twenty-nine of them, the widest soy block on the Outback Steakhouse allergen menu.

Outback Steakhouse Add-On Allergens

Four of the nine add-ons declare shellfish, covering coconut shrimp, grilled shrimp, a lobster tail and the Toowoomba topping. Eight carry milk and seven carry soy. Gold Coast Coconut Shrimp alone adds tree nuts, and the same row declares egg and wheat from its coating.

Outback Steakhouse Potato and Side Allergens

Nine of the twelve potatoes and sides declare milk, which follows the butter, cheese and sour cream. Aussie Fries and Asparagus declare nothing at all. Over The Top Brussels Sprouts skips milk entirely but picks up egg and wheat from the crumb it arrives under.

Outback Steakhouse Chicken, Ribs and Pasta Allergens

Soy leads this group on ten of the thirteen rows. Outback Ribs skips milk in all three rack sizes and declares soy alone. Queensland Chicken & Shrimp Pasta and Kingsland Sirloin & Shrimp Pasta carry the shellfish, and neither declares it from the sauce.

Outback Steakhouse Sandwich and Burger Allergens

Sesame reaches four of the six sammies and burgers, which is the bun rather than the filling. Five declare milk and five declare wheat. Add Bacon declares nothing at all, the only row in the group that arrives without a single declaration.

Outback Steakhouse Seafood Allergens

All five plates declare milk. Toowoomba Salmon carries both fish and shellfish, since the shrimp sits on the fillet. Lobster Tails Entrée declares shellfish and milk and carries no wheat at all, which is unusual on this card.

Outback Steakhouse Dessert Allergens

Every dessert declares egg, milk and soy. Seven of the eight add wheat, and tree nuts reach four, including the carrot cake and the salted caramel skillet. Tim Tam Brownie Cake holds the only peanut declaration on the Outback Steakhouse allergen menu.

Outback Steakhouse Lunch Allergens

Five of the six lunch portions declare egg, and four declare milk, soy and wheat apiece. Grilled Shrimp on the Barbie brings fish, sesame and shellfish together in the lunch size. Grilled Chicken on the Barbie declares soy alone.

Outback Steakhouse Kids Menu Allergens

Three of the eight Joey Menu items declare nothing at all: grilled chicken, fresh fruit and steamed green beans. Four declare milk and four declare wheat. Boomerang Cheeseburger carries the only sesame declaration in the group, which comes from its bun.

Dairy-Free Options at Outback Steakhouse

The Outback Steakhouse allergen menu declares milk on 148 of the 178 items, which leaves thirty without it. Butter, cheese and cream do most of that work. Outback Steakhouse concentrates them in the steak, side, rib and kids groups.

Thirteen of the thirty declare nothing at all, among them Aussie Fries, Asparagus, Fresh Fruit and five salad dressings. Outback Ribs declares soy alone in every rack size. The table below names every dairy-free row along with whatever else that row still declares.

Ordering Gluten-Free at Outback Steakhouse

Wheat sits on 85 rows of the Outback Steakhouse allergen menu, which leaves 93 without a wheat declaration. Steaks account for the largest block. Twenty of the twenty-four steak rows carry no wheat, and combos add twenty-three more, mostly pairings that skip a breaded mate.

Soups and side salads contribute twelve wheat-free rows and the potato and side group another eight. Entrée salads reach six, the seafood plates four and the Joey Menu four. Sammies and burgers manage one. Bread defines that group, so a wheat-free sandwich barely exists on this card.

Outback Steakhouse publishes no gluten-free kitchen protocol in this data, and a wheat-free declaration differs from a gluten-free preparation. Fryers, grills and prep boards are shared across the Outback Steakhouse kitchen, and a wheat-free recipe says nothing about that. Anyone ordering for coeliac disease should ask the manager.

Cross-Contact and Shared Equipment at Outback Steakhouse

Outback Steakhouse runs a wood-fire grill, a fryer and a sauté line in one kitchen. Shrimp, lobster and steak cross the same grill surface within a single shift. Thirty-four items declare shellfish, so a shellfish allergy needs a conversation with the server before anything grilled reaches the table.

Fish catches people out here. Caesar dressing carries anchovy, so every Brisbane Caesar Salad declares fish before a fillet reaches the plate. Grilled Shrimp on the Barbie declares it too, which puts fish on twenty-three rows in all.

The Outback Steakhouse allergen menu describes recipes, not the traffic across a busy line. A tong that lifted coconut shrimp can reach a plain sirloin next, and the same applies to off-menu builds. Telling the server which allergen matters, at the point of ordering, gives the kitchen its only chance to work around it.
