Ruby Tuesday can be keto-friendly if you focus on steaks, grilled chicken, grilled/blackened seafood, dry-rub ribs, bunless burgers, and Garden Bar salads without croutons. The biggest carb traps are fries, baked potatoes, rice pilaf, ramen, pasta, breaded chicken/shrimp/fish, sweet BBQ/hickory bourbon/honey sauces, desserts, and sugary drinks.
