| - This is the new neighbor to one of my favorite places, so I was excited to give it a go. As you enter, you're met by a combination of frenetic energy and pleasing decor. The menu has a lot going on and offers lots of options for vegetarians (while still providing some meat choices). The staff is super friendly and helpful. And the food is ready fairly promptly without sacrificing quality or freshness.
However, I would recommend they clarify ingredients. They offer two soups: one clearly states mushrooms (among other things) while the other, an Indian curry with lentils, lists what I thought were all the ingredients (sans mushrooms, which is what I was looking for). Unfortunately, the soup arrived at the table, fragrant and full of mushrooms. I counted two lentils. So I think Flower Child should list their ingredients clearly, particularly for those who might have allergies, in this case to said mushrooms, and also offer two distinct soups, with less shared ingredients. Also, they should probably dip the ladle deeper into the pot since this lentil soup was lacking lentils.
All that aside, everyone was very nice about replacing it. We traded it for the avocado toast, and that was delicious. The black sesame is a nice touch. We also shared The Rebel wrap which has grass-fed steak, onion, cheese, arugula, and a nice flavor. (I would recommend that the cheese is evenly dispersed on the wrap - my half had no cheese, the other had all the cheese.)
Flavors were good and the place interesting enough to warrant another visit. We left with a gf lemon olive oil cupcake, and that was tasty. Thanks to everyone for making the soup situation right.
