What to order at Arby's

Best bet: Roast beef without the bun, plus a side salad

Main dishes, without a bun

  • Classic Roast Beef — thin-sliced roast beef
  • Roast Turkey Farmhouse Salad — turkey, bacon, cheddar, tomato, greens; watch the dressing

Build your own

  • Any roast meat without the bun, with vegetables or a side salad
  • Roast beef — classic, double or half pound
  • Smokehouse brisket
  • Roast turkey

Sides

  • Side salad with a low-sugar or vinaigrette dressing on the side

  • Applesauce

Worth knowing

  • Horsey Sauce and Arby's Sauce are higher in sugar — ask for them on the side
