Eating out

So I’m new to all of this, and frankly, last week I hardly knew what a calorie was aside from it being what I ate and how to spell it. That being said, I also haven’t been eating fast food for quite awhile now, to the point that it doesn’t taste like I remembered. So my question here is, how do I log what I eat if I do eat out? Not fast food, but maybe something local or a smaller restaurant

    I either try to find something similar on the menu of a bigger chain that has the information available, or if I can't do that I try to deconstruct the meal and log the components, estimating as well as I can. If all else fails, I just look the meal up in the database and pick one, usually erring on the higher side.
