For our first matchup in the round of 32, we have the Aussie Steakhouse against the Old Country Store.

So which do you think, overall, is a better place to eat?

Take into consideration:

Value
Taste
Atmohsphere
Service

and anything else that would make a place a more desirable eating destination.

The Barrel rules, Again I can't touch Outback with a family of 6.

I eat at Outback regularly on the road but I'm sticking with the versatility of the Barrel.

Outback is the 3rd-4th place I think of eating when it comes to chain steakhouses. I'm going with CB.

I would pick Outback over Cracker Barrel 9 times out of the 10...the steak isn't the best steak out of the steak chains...but its still pretty good...and i love the bloomin onion

Outback has never cooked my steak the way I've ordered it, and the menu prices are ridiculous compared to the other steak places. Cracker Barrel destroys Outback.

Cracker Barrell wins solely because of the peg game that calls me an EGG-NOR-A-MOUS

If I wanted something covered in red pepper and dryed out -- I ordered it medium! Medium!! -- to the consistency of cardboard, I'd go with Outback. Oddly enough, I don't like those things.

Also, CB serves bacon.

Is this mercy-killing or cross-pollenation?
Only the strawberry knows.

I'm not a big Cracker Barrel fan but I just don't like Outback at all. Cracker Barrel wins.

Cracker Barrel--because breakfast is the best meal of the day, and you can get catfish for lunch or dinner and wash it down with some CIDER.

Barrel....Outback is WAY overpriced for the steak that you get.

outback is way overpriced, but the two times i've been the food was vastly superior to cracker barrel (which doesn't say much since my cracker barrel experience was dreadful), so outback is the choice for me. not as good a value based on the amount of food you get for the price you pay, but what's it matter if the food isn't any good?
