We've been coming here for years (probably 50-60 total meals) and I can only think of one or two experiences that were just mediocre and none that were bad.\n\nThis place amazes me, because it's one of the few buffet places where the food is actually consistently good and fresh. Many of their dishes are always served, but they also do rotational dishes based around specific themes for limited times. That keeps the menu from getting stale. \n\nThe salad bar is long enough for the 100 yard dash and the veggies and all the accompanying toppings are countless and plentiful in quantity.\n\nThe salad bar is just the starter. They also have a hot food stations that serve rotating dishes of various pasta, sweet and baked potatoes, pizza, multiple breads and muffins, desserts, drinks, and a 6-7 choice soup bar that's outstanding! Their soups are very good and made in-house.\n\nWhat I like best is the value. You can find coupons for different deals, but we use the Family Meal Deal that feeds 2 adults and 2 kids for a flat $19.99 + drinks. You can't find a better selection of healthy choices anywhere for less.\n\nIf you go to Sweet Tomatoes expecting a Michelin star dining experience, you will be disappointed. If you expect lots of good, fresh dining options at a great price, you will be pleased with your choice to eat here.\n\nTIP: If you plan on visiting regularly, try to get the kids drink cups. They offer free refills on future visits."^^ . "2012-08-03T00:00:00"^^ . . "0"^^ .
