text: Oh Sweet Tomatoes how I USED to love you Seems like this location has gone way down hill Went for dinner with my hubby on a Thursday night at pm to try and beat the crowd So many veggie bins on the salad line were empty or looked less than appetizing since someone would spill other stuff into another bin Yuck There were tons of kids running amuck thru the line as well putting their hands on everything One kid had an entire plate full of just boiled egg crumbles and was running up and down the line with no parents in sight Where are the parents or managementstaff to control this kind of stuff Putting hands on everything is so unsanitary which is why I usually stray from buffets When paying I was shocked at the prices now I have not been to a Sweet Tomatoes in about a year or so but for dinners and drinks at a salad bar seems way ridiculous Another or less and I could have gone to Outback and we could had some steak with our saladnAfter seating we went to get drinks and I was so disappointed that their tea was empty and they do not have apple juice anymore since I am not a big soda drinker We then ventured to get some bread and soup to go with our salad Almost all of the soups had that crusty layer on top from sitting so long There was no butter for potatoes or bread The foccacia and pizza bread was just the crusty outter layer that no one ever seems to take The pastas were crusty and dry looking So much for my appetite After eating our salad and little breadmuffins that were not old looking we went in for some of their gooey chocolate cake Again only the outside rim of it was left and it was rock hard The guy behind the counter said it would be a while before a new one was out He just stared at the kid who was digging around the cake and using his finger to scrape the cake off the self serve spoon Gross We then just settled for a dry brownie muffin and ice cream We never did take anything from the fruitpudding bar since that was covered in kids as well and all the bins were almost empty nKnowing that I am pregnant and hormones are raging I decided not to complain since it would probably turn out ugly with me either screaming or in tears Just left hungry and disgusted I will not be back to this location Too bad the express location is closed now since I did frequent it all the time Guess I will head back to the Flamingo location with higher hopes That one always seemed to hit the mark
