## Resource

Outback Steakhouse is pulling out all the stops to revive its brand after years of slipping market share—closing 21 underperforming locations and walking away from 22 more leases to focus energy on its strongest spots. Facing stiff competition from Texas Roadhouse and LongHorn, the chain is betting big on improving the dining experience, menu value, and operational efficiency. Early results show promise, with rising guest satisfaction scores across service, food, and pricing. While the entire casual dining industry battles economic headwinds and closures, Outback’s aggressive turnaround plan aims to stabilize sales and reclaim its place at the table—no easy feat, but the brand is determined to fight back.
