Sweet Tomatoes is one of our family favorites! This couldn't be a better choice for vegans and non vegans a like. They have a huge salad bar with so many different veggies, beans,nuts, and pre-made cold salad dishes to choose from. They also have a lot of heavy fat laden dressings,cheese and a few pre-made salads that will definitely deep six your efforts to not eat loads of extra calories and fat. Just grab the various balsamic or other vinegars to top off your salad instead. You can also find fresh lemon slices to squeeze over your salad by the drink counter. They also have a hot bar with a variety of soups, pasta and potatoes . They generally have at least 2 vegan soup choices to choose from. You can go back for plate refills as much as you like but for me I just start with 2 plates when I make my way through the salad bar so that I don't have to get back in line. I always finish my meal by bypassing the frozen yogurt machine and filling up a plate with some delicious cut fruit instead.I also like that when you sign up for Sweet tomatoes or Soup plantation club you will receive weekly discount coupons on what already was a great deal even before the extra discount. Kids under 2 also eat free. Incidentally Sweet Tomatoes is a great place to expose your kids to a wide variety of fruits and veggies that they may not other wise be exposed to on a consistent basis. When my girls were very little I made sure that they always picked a few new veggies to try. I also like that they have locations in other states so that when we travel we can often find a quick veg friendly place to stop.
