I had never been to a Sweet Tomatoes, but met a friend for lunch here today. Typical soup and salad bar fare, and decent enough. But I have one MAJOR complaint: the plates and bowls for your food were NOT CLEAN. And not just one or even two. Dish after dish had old food particles on them and it was hard to find one clean enough to eat off of. I'm not very squeamish, but this is something the management needs to address. It was that bad. I hope someone there is listening.
