Does it have anything to do with the Australian Outback?What does Australia have to do with Outback Steakhouse?
"Outback Steakhouse" in the USA has abosolutely nothing in common with Australia or Australian food.

It's purely an American invention.



We have five "Outback Steakhouse" Restaurants in Australia. They are all located in New South Wales. The menu has quite a few different items to the menu in the USA.
In Australia the "Out back" means like large areas where cattle graze. And since the "outback restaurant" specializes in fine steak, I think you can make the connection. It is quite fitting that a steak house named for Australian cattle graze land should be called "The Outback."



A steak house named for American cattle grazeland is called the "Lone Star" because Texas is known as the 'lone star state." Maybe that is because at dusk and dawn there is one lone star visible in the sky over the cattle grazing land in Texas. That would be Venus.

The name Outback Steakhouse is a marketing gimmick. I recently went to a US Western theme restaurant in Australia that is actually a franchise of South African origin. It purely tries to create a certain atmosphere to give the patron a feeling of something special. Some strange items on the menu of Outback include wallaby steaks and so on that are all actually beef. If you want a real wallaby steak, you will have to break the law and kill a protected animal. Kangaroo steaks on the other hand are widely available in Australia.
Absolutely nothing. There is no such thing as a Bloomin' Onion in Australia. No one here drinks Foster's. Good for a laugh, though, and the food is great.
