Ruby Tuesday Calories & Nutrition (49 plates)

At Ruby Tuesday a dish comes with choices its nutrition guide prints as separate rows, so this page counts each dish with them: of the 49 dishes that fit a 1,500-calorie cap, 39 are served as listed and 10 come with an optional side. Every total and meal here adds those choices at their printed values; the lightest plate is the Blackened Tilapia at 410 calories with its lightest choices.

How Ruby Tuesday meals are counted here

• Burgers and sandwiches come with a choice of side, which the widget prints apart (its default is "No Side"); a meal names the side it counts, or says no side. The side list is the nine of the widget's twenty side choices whose calories on the burger panels read (all ten that offer a side, 2026-09-16) are the side's printed row: French fries 420, tater tots 420, a baked potato 220, a loaded baked potato 600, mashed potatoes 220, rice pilaf 190, roasted corn 190, coleslaw 120, grilled zucchini 20 (the panels' protein, carbs and fat are within 1 g of the rows, and their unrounded calories within 5). A meal here adds the sandwich's printed figure and the side's; the widget's panel for a whole build rounds the total once, so it can read up to 10 cal below that sum (the American Smashed Burger's panel, 730 alone, reads 940 with mashed potatoes against 730 + 220, 910 with rice pilaf against 920 and 1,320 with a loaded baked potato against 1,330, while French fries, coleslaw and grilled zucchini add exactly their rows). Loaded fries, loaded tots, mac 'n cheese and onion rings are a different portion there than as a side order, broccoli and roasted mushrooms print macros that cannot make their calories, and the soups and the dressed baked potatoes have no row.
• The two smashed burgers come with fries or tots, printed apart; a meal names the side it counts, or says no side.
• Ruby Tuesday's widget prints the ribs, the rib combos and Triple Play with classic barbecue ribs and French fries already in their values (a half-rack's 890 cal is the ribs' 470 and the fries' 420), so meals here order them that way. The 6 oz Rib Eye & Half-Rack Ribs Combo is described "Served with a baked potato.", but its printed 1,240 cal are the widget's default build, whose side is French fries, so it too is ordered with fries.
• Steaks come with a baked potato and whipped butter, both already in the widget's values (a 6 oz Top Sirloin's 450 cal is the steak's 200, melted whipped butter's 25 and the potato's 220; the T-Bone and the New York Strip print the butter as the potato's default topping), so a meal names both; meals here never add a second side.
• The steak combos are printed with crispy shrimp and cocktail sauce (the widget's default combo), a baked potato and garlic butter (122 cal), all already in their values, so a meal names each (the 6 oz Top Sirloin Combo's 870 cal are the steak's 203, the shrimp's 296, the cocktail sauce's 23, the potato's 225 and the garlic butter's 123).
• The grilled chicken plates are printed single, with their two default sides already in their values.
• Crispy Chicken Tenders are printed with French fries, coleslaw and honey mustard already in their value.
• The fried seafood plates are printed with French fries (and, where the widget includes it, coleslaw) already in their values.
• The salmon, tilapia and New Orleans Seafood plates are printed with grilled zucchini and rice pilaf already in their values.
• Pastas are printed with their breadstick already in their values.

A meal is one plate (the dish and a valid pick for each of its choices, never the same row twice) and at most one drink, and its totals are the printed rows added together. 9 dishes are listed but never put in a meal: rubytuesday.com's menu describes a different bowl ("Mixed greens, orzo, roasted vegetables, garbanzo beans, and feta cheese") from the one the widget's figures are built from (greens and grains salad, rice, corn, dried cranberries, sunflower seeds), 2026-09-16 (1) and its lightest plate is over 1,500 calories (8). 11 starters are listed on their own and never counted as a meal.

• Sides (9): coleslaw, grilled zucchini, French fries, a loaded baked potato, a plain baked potato, mashed potatoes, roasted corn, rice pilaf and tater tots.
