FAQs
Does the 640 calories include the dressing?

Answer: Yes. It has vegetables, cheese, and croutons, and no meat or seafood.
How can I make this salad healthier?
Answer: You can ask for no croutons, less cheese, and dressing on the side. You can also choose a lighter dressing like vinaigrette.
What dressings can I choose from?
Answer: Red Lobster usually offers dressings like Ranch, Blue Cheese, Thousand Island, Italian Vinaigrette, and French. Ask your server for the current options.
Can I order the salad without red onions?
Answer: Yes. You can ask to leave out red onions or any other ingredient you don’t want. Just tell your server while ordering.
