Restaurant help

Is there a way to look up calories by restaurant name on this database? Like all foods grouped under restaurant name instead of individually? Trying to find lowest calorie choice at a particular chain.
Thanks.

    You can just search for the restaurant name, like, "Applebees" and everything anyone's entered from them should come up, but it's not really that easy. Probably better to google for the same information. :)

    Yes. Just enter the restaurant name and you can wade through tons of entries. It would be slightly easier to check individual menu items like "Burger King Whopper" than to search everything ever entered containing the restaurant's name.
    If it is a chain restaurant, they likely have a web site and their nutritional information online. I would check there instead of the MFP database for a faster comparison.
