Nutrition basics for pasta and bowls
Alfredo based pasta dishes tend to run higher in calories, fat and sodium because of the cream sauce and cheese. If you want a lighter pasta option, ask for a smaller portion or split a dish with someone.
Bowls are generally the lighter path on this part of the menu. The Sesame Soy Salmon Bowl and Baja Shrimp Bowl both use rice and vegetables instead of fried breading.
Fried sandwiches run higher in calories. The Crunch Fried Flounder Sandwich is listed at 1690 calories on some published nutrition guides, which is one of the highest counts in this menu section.
