Sweet Tomatoes

The very 1st Souplantation brought delicious, healthy dining to San Diego in March 1978. Industry experts credit us as being the 1st casual eatery brand to serve fresh, wholesome menu options. In 1983, Garden Fresh Restaurant Corp. Was established by Michael Mack through the acquisition of the 1st two Souplantation restaurants. As we continued to expand, we started to pursue growth beyond our core Southern California markets. In order to enhance our brand and reflect our commitement to fresh, wholesome ingredients, we adopted the name Sweet Tomatoes for new restaurants outside Southern California.
