OUTBACK STEAKHOUSE TO OPEN IN MIAMI’S SOUTH BEACH ON APRIL 16
Opening Night to Benefit Autism Speaks

Miami, Florida, April 2007 – By popular demand, Outback Steakhouse is opening a restaurant in Miami’s South Beach that will be operated by managing partner Vanessa Becskehazy. Marking the 14th restaurant in the greater Miami area, it will open at 555 Washington Avenue (at the corner of 6th Street and Washington Avenue) on Monday, April 16.

The excitement begins with an Opening Night Benefit for Autism Speaks. Dedicated to funding global biomedical research into the causes, prevention, treatments, and cure for autism, Autism Speaks seeks to bring hope to all who deal with the hardships of this disorder.

“We have high regards for the work being done in our communities by Autism Speaks,” says Tracy Kruse, joint-venture partner for Outback Steakhouse in Miami. “We look forward to hosting a fun evening of great food and hospitality while raising funds for this terrific organization.”

Outback Steakhouse was honored with the 2006 Platinum Award in the best steakhouse category in Restaurants & Institutions magazine’s annual Consumer Choice awards. Renowned for its bold flavors, Outback Steakhouse features a menu of uniquely-seasoned steaks, prime rib, chops, ribs, chicken, pasta, fresh salads, sides, appetizers and seafood.
