How to make it keto
Request without fries or rice. Confirm sauce is thickened with cream or reduced, not flour or starch. Ensure no added sugar. Ask for extra mushrooms or a green salad with oil and vinegar.
Watch out for
Fries/rice served automatically. Potential for flour/starch in sauce thickeners. Hidden sugars in pre-made sauces or broths. Vegetables like onions and small amounts of wine contribute some carbs.
