Red Lobster can be keto-friendly if you focus on plain lobster, crab, steak, grilled or blackened salmon, mussels, and shrimp scampi while refusing biscuits and starchy sides. Avoid breaded shrimp, fish & chips, pasta dishes, pizza, mac & cheese, fries, desserts, and sugary drinks. For a diabetic keto meal, order seafood or steak with butter, broccoli, or salad and keep sauces on the side.
