How many calories are in a shrimp egg roll?
One restaurant-style shrimp egg roll weighs 64 g and carries 165 calories. Per 100 g the fried roll runs 258 calories, most of that from the wrapper and the fryer rather than the shrimp. Order two and you are at 330 calories, and that is the roll alone — the dipping sauce is not in the USDA record.
You'd need to walk about 33 minutes to burn the 165 calories in one egg roll (64 g).

Shrimp egg roll quick facts
The record behind every number on this page is FNDDS 2708701, "Egg roll, with shrimp". It is the only USDA entry written specifically for a shrimp egg roll, and it describes the fried version that comes out of a Chinese takeout kitchen — the one you are actually holding. Its household measure is a single roll of 64 g, so the serving column below is USDA's own, not a guess.
| Nutrient | Per 100 g | Per 1 egg roll (64 g) | % Daily Value |
|---|---|---|---|
| Calories | 258 | 165 | — |
| Total fat | 13.61 g | 8.7 g | 11% |
| Saturated fat | 2.01 g | 1.3 g | 6% |
| Carbohydrate | 27.12 g | 17.4 g | 6% |
| Dietary fiber | 2 g | 1.3 g | 5% |
| Total sugars | 5.07 g | 3.2 g | — |
| Protein | 6.68 g | 4.3 g | 9% |

Verified nutrition data
Numbers on this page come from USDA FoodData Central, the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s food composition database, and from manufacturer labels where a branded product is named. Last verified September 2026. How we verify our data →
Two rows are missing on purpose. This FNDDS edition does not publish added sugars or trans fat for prepared restaurant dishes, so listing them as zero would be inventing data. Cholesterol and potassium do exist in the record: one roll gives 10 mg of cholesterol (3% of the Daily Value) and 129 mg of potassium, also 3%. The %DV column follows the FDA reference amounts.
US servings, from a mini roll to a full cup
| Serving | Weight | Calories |
|---|---|---|
| 1 miniature egg roll | 13 g | 34 kcal |
| 1 oz | 28 g | 72 kcal |
| One egg roll, takeout size | 64 g | 165 kcal |
| Per 100 g | 100 g | 258 kcal |
| 2 egg rolls | 128 g | 330 kcal |
| 1 cup, chopped | 125 g | 323 kcal |
The mini roll, the ounce, the full roll and the cup are USDA household measures for this record. The two-roll line is our own arithmetic from the USDA 100 g figure, not a USDA serving.
That cup is the trap. A cup of chopped egg roll weighs 125 g and lands at 323 calories — nearly double a single roll, and within seven calories of eating two whole rolls. If a tracking app offers you "1 cup" as the default unit for an appetizer that arrives as discrete pieces, count the pieces instead. The gap between logging one roll and logging one cup is 158 calories, almost as much as the roll itself.
The mini rolls sold as party appetizers run the other way: 13 g each, 34 calories apiece. Five of them come to 170 calories, roughly one takeout roll, which is a fair trade if the plate is meant to last through a whole dinner.
Chicken, pork, vegetable and crab rangoon
| Version | Per 100 g | Typical piece | Calories |
|---|---|---|---|
| Shrimp egg roll | 258 kcal | 1 egg roll, 64 g | 165 kcal |
| Chicken or turkey egg roll | 266 kcal | 1 egg roll, 64 g | 170 kcal |
| Vegetable (meatless) egg roll | 270 kcal | 1 egg roll, 64 g | 173 kcal |
| Pork or beef egg roll | 272 kcal | 1 egg roll, 64 g | 174 kcal |
| Crab rangoon, fried | 314 kcal | 1 oz, 28 g | 88 kcal |
| Fried wonton or pot sticker | 192 kcal | 1 oz, 28 g | 54 kcal |
USDA publishes only one household measure per egg roll record, so the 64 g piece for the chicken, vegetable and pork versions is our own arithmetic applied to their 100 g figures; the ounce servings for rangoon and wonton are ours too.
Here is the surprise. The meatless egg roll is not the light option — at 270 calories per 100 g it beats the shrimp version by 12, because the filling is cabbage and noodle starch with no lean protein to displace it. Of the four USDA egg roll records, shrimp is the lightest and pork or beef the heaviest, and the whole spread is nine calories per roll. Choosing your filling barely moves the total. Choosing how many rolls does.
Crab rangoon is the real jump: 314 calories per 100 g, the densest item on this page, because cream cheese replaces the vegetables. Fried wontons, at 192, are the lightest per gram in this table, though they are also the easiest to eat six of.
Frozen rolls from the grocery aisle
Store-bought shrimp egg rolls are consistently lighter per gram than takeout, even though the boxes are bigger. Chung's frozen shrimp egg rolls run 194 calories per 100 g, Pagoda's pork and shrimp rolls 207, Imperial Garden 170, and Feel Good Foods just 120. Every one of them sits below the restaurant record's 258.
That does not automatically make the frozen box the smaller number, because the label servings are heavier. A Chung's serving is two rolls plus sauce at 170 g and 330 calories — the exact figure you get from two 128 g takeout rolls, for 42 g more food. A Feel Good Foods roll weighs 92 g and delivers 110 calories, less than a takeout roll that weighs a third less. Comparing per 100 g is the only way to see this; comparing per package is how people end up confused.
Sodium is the row to watch
Calories are not the interesting row on this label. One shrimp egg roll carries 282 mg of sodium, 12% of the Daily Value, while its 165 calories are only about 8% of a 2,000-calorie day. Sodium is running ahead of calories by half again. That is roughly an eighth of a teaspoon of table salt per roll.
Two rolls put you at 564 mg, 25% of the day's sodium, and that is before the duck sauce, soy sauce or hot mustard, none of which appear in the USDA record. Soy sauce alone can add several hundred milligrams per tablespoon. The Dietary Guidelines for Americans set the limit at 2,300 mg a day, and appetizers like this are exactly where a takeout meal spends it.
Protein is the row that disappoints. Shrimp reads like a protein food, but a whole roll gives 4.3 g — 9% of the Daily Value, and less than a single large egg. The shrimp is a garnish inside a wrapper, not the substance of the dish, which is why MyPlate would count this as a grain long before it counts as a protein food. Treat the egg roll as the side it is, and put the protein on the plate next to it.
How does a shrimp egg roll compare?
| Egg roll | Per 100 g | Protein per 100 g | US serving | Calories |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Shrimp | 258 kcal | 6.68 g | 1 egg roll, 64 g | 165 kcal |
| Chicken or turkey | 266 kcal | 7.59 g | 1 egg roll, 64 g | 170 kcal |
| Meatless | 270 kcal | 5.62 g | 1 egg roll, 64 g | 173 kcal |
| Pork or beef | 272 kcal | 7.58 g | 1 egg roll, 64 g | 174 kcal |
Our take: pick the shrimp roll if you want the lightest of the four, but do not congratulate yourself too hard — it saves nine calories over the pork version and costs you nearly a gram of protein against chicken. If you are cutting calories, the decision worth making is one roll instead of two, which saves 165. The frozen boxes are lighter per gram at 120 to 207 calories per 100 g, and you can read their label before you order.

Shrimp egg roll FAQs
How many calories are in one shrimp egg roll?
165 calories for a standard takeout roll of 64 g, at 258 calories per 100 g. That is USDA's own household measure for the fried restaurant version. Dipping sauce is not included in the figure, so duck sauce or sweet chili adds on top of it.
How many calories in 2 shrimp egg rolls?
330 calories for two rolls totaling 128 g, our own arithmetic from the USDA 100 g figure of 258. Two rolls also carry 564 mg of sodium, a quarter of the day's limit, plus 34.8 g of carbohydrate and 8.6 g of protein before any sauce.
How many carbs are in a shrimp egg roll?
17.4 g of carbohydrate in one 64 g roll, 6% of the Daily Value, from 27.12 g per 100 g. Of that, 3.2 g is total sugars and 1.3 g is fiber. The wrapper does most of the work here, which is why the vegetable version has more carbs, not fewer.
How much protein is in a shrimp egg roll?
4.3 g per 64 g roll, only 9% of the Daily Value, from 6.68 g per 100 g. Less than one large egg. The shrimp is a small part of a filling that is mostly cabbage and wrapper, so this is a starch side dish rather than a protein source.
How much sodium is in a shrimp egg roll?
282 mg in one roll, 12% of the 2,300 mg Daily Value, from 440 mg per 100 g. Two rolls reach 564 mg, or 25%. That is the roll on its own; soy sauce, duck sauce and hot mustard are not counted in the USDA record and can add several hundred milligrams more.
Are shrimp egg rolls healthier than pork egg rolls?
Barely — shrimp runs 258 calories per 100 g against 272 for pork or beef, a difference of nine calories per 64 g roll. Pork actually carries more protein, 7.58 g per 100 g against 6.68 g. The wrapper and the fryer dominate both, so the filling is close to a rounding error.
How many calories in a frozen shrimp egg roll?
110 to 240 calories depending on the brand and roll size. Feel Good Foods lists 110 for a 92 g roll, Imperial Garden 240 for a 141 g roll, and a Chung's serving of two rolls with sauce is 330. Per 100 g they run 120 to 207, all lighter than takeout.
How many calories in a mini shrimp egg roll?
34 calories for one miniature roll of 13 g, which is USDA's smallest household measure for this record. Five of them come to 170 calories, about the same as one full takeout roll. Party trays make it easy to pass that mark without noticing.
