North Atlantic Swordfish

What's in the North Atlantic Swordfish?

At 590 calories per serving, the North Atlantic Swordfish represents about 30% of a 2,000-calorie daily intake. On the macronutrient side, roughly 49% of those calories come from protein, 49% from fat, and 1% from carbohydrates — a profile typical of Eddie V's Prime Seafood's Entree section. Sodium is often the line to watch with sit-down chain entrees, and this dish delivers 810mg, or about 35% of the FDA's daily reference value. If you're watching salt, pairing the North Atlantic Swordfish with a side salad (dressing on the side) and water rather than a sweetened beverage is the standard mitigation. Like most items at Eddie V's Prime Seafood, the dish is built for shareable portions and is plated at restaurant scale rather than a strict single serving. Boxing half of it before you start is one of the simplest ways to bring the per-meal calorie load down meaningfully without giving up the experience.

How this fits a 2,000-calorie day

One serving of the North Atlantic Swordfish supplies 590 calories, which represents roughly 30% of a 2,000-calorie reference day. That is a moderate restaurant-portion meal — generous compared to a home-cooked plate but not at the upper end of the chain's menu. A side salad or a smaller appetizer can round it out without pushing the day over budget.

The macronutrient split lands at roughly 49% protein, 1% carbohydrate and 49% fat by calorie share — a useful frame because raw gram counts often understate how much of a dish's energy actually comes from fat. Protein delivery is meaningful here at 72g per serving, which can keep satiety high relative to carb-heavy or fat-heavy alternatives.

Sodium clocks in at 810mg, or about 35% of the FDA's 2,300mg daily reference value. That is well within a reasonable share for a single meal and gives plenty of room for the rest of the day.

Allergen profile

Fish

The North Atlantic Swordfish is flagged for Fish in the chain's posted allergen panel. Fish-derived ingredients can appear in unexpected places — Worcestershire-style sauces and Caesar dressings being the classic examples. Cross-contact in a shared kitchen is always possible, so when in doubt, ask the floor manager.

Ordering strategy

If the North Atlantic Swordfish is the entrée you want, the highest-leverage adjustments are usually the ones that change the surrounding meal rather than the dish itself. Because the entrée itself is moderate, you have headroom for an appetizer or a starter side without dropping into restrictive territory — useful for a longer dinner where the goal is to stretch the meal rather than minimize it. Sauces, dressings and finishing oils are routinely the largest hidden source of calories on a casual-dining plate; getting them on the side gives you direct portion control without changing the dish you actually want to eat.
