What causes the difference

The portion size is the same, but the ingredients and preparation differ.

Sauce: Soy sauce → Garlic aioliSeafood: grilled → deep-friedCoating: + Tempura

Tempura batter more than doubles the plate: the airy shell soaks up frying oil, taking shrimp from ~110 to ~256 kcal per 100 g.
The dip finishes the job — mayo-based garlic aioli by the tablespoon versus a teaspoon of soy sauce.
