I was in the mood for their "endless salad bar", which at initially seemed a little sparse but actually had more than enough variety to crowd my salad plate...twice. I appreciated the chickpeas and cottage cheese, nice protein sources for those who don't want to eat meat. I also liked the stuffed green olives and three bean salad which bring lively flavors to the salad. The fruit selection this time of year (apparently honeydew and cantelope, this week in December) was a little low. The soups were also good. That night was Italian wedding, which had a noticeably high meatball to pasta ratio. The welcomed banana bread hanging out around the soup bowls was just sweet enough for a dessert.
I actually ordered $2 salad bar upgrade for my entree "mile high meatloaf". When meatloaf arrived, it looked pretty good but in came up short on taste. It kinda tasted like it came from a TV dinner, kinda artificial, not like a hamburger. The mashed potatoes and gravy didn't have that much taste either. The bread the meatloaf sat on was tough. Usually I like anything covered in gravy, but I probably wouldn't order the meatloaf again. Maybe I'll go for the Smothered Ground Sirlon instead next time. Overall, I'm not too disappointed because what I really wanted was the salad bar and it was good!
