The Lightest and Heaviest Options
Filet Mignon carries the fewest calories on this entire menu at 260, followed closely by Snow Crab at 300 and Sirloin Steak at 320. All three share one thing in common: no breading or frying involved.
Fish and Chips sits at the top of the calorie range at 1,230, followed by Salmon New Orleans near 1,160 and Crunch-Fried Flounder at 1,170. Every one of the heaviest three items involves either deep frying or a rich, multi-component sauce.
Seafood vs. Non-Seafood on This Menu
Most of this menu centers on seafood, but three entrées give guests a non-seafood option without leaving the Classics Menu: Parmesan-Crusted Chicken, Crispy Chicken Tenders, and the three steak cuts.
Guests dining in a mixed group — some wanting seafood, others not — can order entirely off this one menu category rather than needing to look elsewhere on the full Red Lobster Menu 2026.
Steaks: Choosing Between Three Cuts
The three steak options on this menu differ a lot in both calories and price.
| Steak | Price | Calories | Protein |
|---|---|---|---|
7oz Sirloin | $24.99 | 320 | 46g |
12oz NY Strip | $27.99 | 690 | 65g |
6oz Filet Mignon | $27.99 | 260 | 34g |
Sirloin gives the best protein-per-calorie ratio of the three. NY Strip is the largest portion and carries the most calories and sodium. Filet Mignon costs the same as NY Strip despite being the smallest cut, since tenderloin meat costs more per ounce than other cuts.
Which Classics Menu entrée has the most protein?
The 12oz NY Strip Steak carries the most protein on this menu at 65g, ahead of Sirloin Steak at 46g.
Is the Snow Crab price fixed or does it change?
Snow Crab pricing can shift more than other menu items, since crab is priced closer to current market rates. The $29.99 figure reflects the base Simply Steamed 1 lb portion.
Do all Classics Menu items come with the same sides?
Yes. Every entrée on this menu includes a choice of two sides plus Cheddar Bay Biscuits, regardless of which entrée is ordered.
Why does Atlantic Salmon show two different calorie counts?
Different sources report 510 and 1,010 calories for the same grilled salmon entrée. This likely comes down to a serving-size difference that has not been fully confirmed. Guests tracking calories closely should confirm the exact portion with a nearby restaurant.
Allergen Information
This menu spans nearly every major allergen depending on the item. Per Mayo Clinic, food allergy reactions can range from mild to life-threatening, which is part of why reviewing each specific item matters more on a varied menu like this one than on a smaller, single-protein menu. Seafood entrées contain fish or shellfish. Breaded items (Fish and Chips, Crunch-Fried Flounder, Crispy Chicken Tenders) contain wheat. Parmesan-Crusted Chicken contains dairy and egg from its breading.
Guests with multiple allergies should review each entrée individually, since this is one of the most varied menu categories for allergen content.
Gluten Considerations
Steaks, plain steamed crab, and plain lobster tail are naturally gluten free. Fish and Chips, Crunch-Fried Flounder, Crispy Chicken Tenders, and Parmesan-Crusted Chicken all contain wheat from breading and are not suitable for gluten-free diets.
Ordering Notes
Menu pricing can shift by location, and market-priced items like Snow Crab and Live Maine Lobster see more variation than steak or chicken entrées. Guests should confirm current pricing with a nearby restaurant or the official ordering platform before visiting. This category tends to stay more stable year to year than seasonal menus like Lobsterfest, since it represents the standing core of what Red Lobster serves daily.
