How to make it keto
Ask for no fries or bread. Request a side of green vegetables (e.g., green beans, spinach, broccoli) or a simple side salad with oil and vinegar dressing. Explicitly state 'no sauce' or inquire about sugar/flour content in any accompanying sauces (e.g., peppercorn, mushroom, béarnaise) and avoid if not keto-friendly.

Biefstuk without fries or bread, please. I'd like green vegetables or a side salad with oil and vinegar. No sauce, please.
