How to order at Applebee's on a GLP-1

The grilled-chicken salads and USDA sirloins that top the menu, the salmon and grilled chicken that fit, the burgers and pastas that all run heavy, and the very high sodium to watch, built from Applebee's own interactive nutrition menu and Nishi's GLP-1 scoring lens.

Written for anyone eating on a GLP-1 like Ozempic, Mounjaro, or Wegovy. Every Applebee's order below is scored the same published way, from the restaurant's own published nutrition.

The move

Order a California Grilled Chicken Salad, a Strawberry Balsamic Chicken Salad, or a USDA Select Sirloin for the best protein per calorie, treat the burgers, pastas and riblet platters as splurges, and watch the sodium, which runs very high across the whole menu.

Ozempic, Mounjaro, and Wegovy are trademarks of their respective owners, named only to describe the medicines many readers take. Nishi is not affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by any of them. Values as published by Applebee's on its official interactive nutrition menu (applebees.com), per orderable item at the item's default configuration (the default sauce or dressing is included; add-ons and extra sides you choose are additional). Salads are listed and scored with their included dressing. Applebee's publishes serving weights in grams, so gram portions are available. Alcohol, beverages, Limited Time Offers, kids items, and back-end catering rows are not included. Some legacy or incompletely-specified items are excluded (see the methodology note). Menus change; verify in the restaurant (updated Nutritional information as of October 12, 2026 (Applebee's interactive nutrition menu)).
The quick take

Applebee's leanest high-protein orders are the grilled-chicken salads and the USDA sirloins. The California Grilled Chicken Salad is 459 calories for 53 g of protein, the Strawberry Balsamic Chicken Salad 428 for 48 (and, at 865 mg, the single lowest-sodium high-protein pick on the menu), and a 6 oz Select Sirloin is 556 calories for 42 g, the 8 oz 620 for 53. Blackened Cajun Salmon (689, 41 g) and a Southwest Chicken Bowl (834, 54 g) also fit. The splurges are the burgers (the Classic Cheeseburger is 1,216 calories with its fries, the Whisky Bacon and Quesadilla burgers near 1,600), the pastas (1,300 to 1,450), and the riblet and baby-back platters. Sodium is the real watch-out everywhere: most entrees run 1,600 to 2,700 mg and several pass 3,000 (Fiesta Lime Chicken is 3,670), so pick a salad or a sirloin, go light on the breadstick, and add water. Note: salads are scored with their listed dressing; the Oriental Chicken Salad and a few others are left off because their signature dressing is served separately and the published plate without it understates the order.

The menu, scored

Scored for whole meals, a gentler bar than single ingredients, since a balanced meal is naturally less protein-dense and fat only counts against it once it tops half the calories. Best fit first; re-sort by what matters today, and tap "Show the math" for the exact rule on any card. How we score.

Lower fit

Scored a lower fit for a GLP-1 pattern, whether for higher fat, a denser portion, or less protein per calorie. Some carry a lot of protein but enough fat or calories that our rubric still rates them a lower fit, so the number is not the whole story. Each shows the specific reason. For a better fit, see the orders above. How we score.

Common questions

What's the most GLP-1-friendly order at Applebee's?

A grilled-chicken salad or a USDA sirloin. The California Grilled Chicken Salad is 459 calories for 53 g of protein and the Strawberry Balsamic Chicken Salad 428 for 48, both lean and very high in protein per calorie. A 6 oz Select Sirloin is 556 calories for 42 g. All are a fraction of the calories of Applebee's burgers and pastas.

What's the highest-protein option at Applebee's?

The USDA sirloins and the Bourbon Street plates carry the most protein per calorie: an 8 oz Select Sirloin is 53 g for 620 calories and Bourbon Street Chicken & Shrimp is 56 g for 799. Fiesta Lime Chicken reaches 60 g, but at 1,189 calories and 3,670 mg of sodium it is far heavier and much saltier than the sirloins.

Can I have an Applebee's burger or pasta on a GLP-1?

You can, but treat it as a splurge. Every Handcrafted Burger comes with fries and runs 1,090 to 1,600 calories (the Classic Cheeseburger is 1,216), and the pastas are 1,300 to 1,450. If you want the burger flavor with less of everything, a grilled-chicken salad or a sirloin gives you similar or more protein for roughly a third to half the calories.

Which Applebee's order has the least sodium?

Among the high-protein picks, the Strawberry Balsamic Chicken Salad is the standout at 865 mg for 48 g of protein. Most Applebee's entrees run far higher (1,600 to 3,700 mg), so if sodium is your concern, that salad and the California Grilled Chicken Salad (1,611 mg) are the ones to reach for.

What is the lowest-calorie Applebee's order with at least 15 g of protein?

Why you can trust this

  • Where the numbers come from. Applebee's official interactive nutrition menu (applebees.com, via Nutritionix), last verified 2026-10-24. We publish only values the restaurant itself publishes.
  • How each score is calculated. Deterministic rules published in full in our methodology (v1.1), with one published bar for single ingredients and one for whole meals. Every row above lists the exact factors behind its label.
  • What the score does and does not consider. See the limitations. It scores one item, not your whole day, and it is not medical advice.
  • How to challenge or correct it. Tell us if a value is stale or a call looks wrong. Corrections are recorded in the methodology version history.
