MOV Keto Restaurant Guide
My Orders
By Lindsay // The Ketoneer
Here are some of my go-to orders at my favorite restaurants. I live in the Mid Ohio Valley. If you are not from this area, that is alright. I made sure to include a lot of chain restaurants that you may find in your local area.
I tried to type out each item exactly as I order it. Most restaurants are happy to modify things as long as you ask nicely. As noted in my Anti-Recipe page, I enjoy dining out pretty often. The only downside of dining out is you cannot control every single ingredient. Most restaurants use a lot of industrial seed oils (such as soybean or canola) which I do attempt to limit in my daily life. I never purchase or cook with these oils. But, almost all commercial dressings and condiments are made of them. Be cautious of sauces and glazes. These tend to be full of added sugars.This is just something to be aware of when dining out. Luckily, many restaurants have their menus and nutrition info posted on their websites. When in doubt, google before you go and/or search on a food tracking app such as, “My Fitness Pal”.
These are just my personal preferences. If I listed something you do not like, there are often other options available. Most restaurants have multiple forms of meat and/or veggies. Let me know your favorite menu items! I hope this helps empower you to know you CAN dine out and stick to a low carb diet.
