Outback Steak House (New Point Center, off Constitution and Powers)

We went to the Outback Steak House at the New Point Center (off Constitution and Powers) with the Mensa group - 13 of us! Delightful company - especially since my friend Susan joined us.  As to the service and food ... service was great - they had our tables set up with the 1 1/2 hour wait (actually, it was much closer to an hour) - and as far as I know, only one order got bollixed up (mine). Drinks were excellent and fast - salads were fresh and dressed nicely. Bloomin' onions crispy and seasoned just right.  Everybody's food seemed okay - except mine!  I asked for my steak "Pittsburgh" style (really charred on the outside and rare inside) and the waitress asked the manager if they could do that. He said yes, Pittsburgh would be no problem. When I got my steak, tender as it was, it was simply really rare. No char - and, to be honest, a bit too rare!  Be advised - they do NOT know how to Pittsburgh a steak!  Bastards! 

Other than my steak not being done correctly - the rest of the evening - both company, food and drink, was GREAT!  Overall - Yes - DO AGAIN!
