Keto Restaurant Guide
Keto at Burger King
Burger King is flame-grilled and easy to order low carb. The beef patties, bacon, cheese, and eggs are all keto-friendly. The carbs are in the buns, the fries, the onion rings, the breaded chicken, the shakes, and the sweet ketchup.
Order a Whopper or any burger without the bun, in a bowl or wrapped in lettuce. Breakfast is simple too: ask for the sausage, eggs, and cheese without the biscuit or croissant.

Order with care
The bun is the main carb load on any sandwich. Order it bunless instead.
Fried potato with no keto version. Swap for a side salad.
Battered and fried, so they are as carb-heavy as the fries. Skip them.
The breading carries the carbs. Choose a grilled option or a bunless burger.
Shakes are very high in sugar. Stick to water, unsweetened tea, or a diet soda.
