Jason’s Has An Extensive Menu And Fantastic Salad Bar.

The best part about this restaurant? You aren’t going in blind, they print most if not all of the nutrition information right there on the menu you pick up when you walk in the door. So take a close look at this menu so you can pick out the good from the bad or ugly.

  • The BLT? 800 calories and 49 grams of fat!
  • The New York Yankee will be stuffed with 1189 calories and 69 grams of fat (32 of that is artery-clogging saturated fat)
  • The Tuna Melt won’t help you melt fat away with its 960 calories and 62 grams of fat.
  • The California Club will make you cover up in Venice Beach. It contains 826 calories and 57 grams of fat.
  • Chicken Caesar Salad – 1399 calories and 99 grams of fat.
  • Taco Salad with Southwest Chicken – 1907 calories and 106 grams of fat. Yes, you read that correctly, it contains more calories than some people trying to lose weight should eat in an entire day!
  • Taco Salad with Chili (no salsa) – 1972 calories, 111 grams of fat.
  • Those are just a few of the fattening choices on Jason’s menu. Even some of the Fresh Made Salads are sketchy and you can’t just standby the word “grilled” and know you are getting something healthy (the Grilled Portobello Wrapini has 47 grams of fat). When you head to Jason’s, stick with the salad bar or the choices below or build your own healthy meal:

    Conclusion

    Jason’s seems very healthy but like any restaurant, they can fool even the most conscientious consumer. So go in there armed with the knowledge of what you’d like to eat. And, if you really want something that isn’t the best choice at least go in there knowing you need to cut it in half and take the rest home for another meal.
