| - Cheers and more power to restaurants that offer healthy options that actually taste good!
When I try a place during their grand opening, I set low expectations and bump my patience level all the way up - I expect things to not go perfectly since they're working on kinks and all that. But Flower Child managed to pleasantly surprise me. They got their act together and things are going smoothly like a well-oiled machine. Service was fast and friendly. Food was delicious. The place was packed but no errors/ chaos occurred.
They have daily soup, salads, plates, bowls, wraps which you can add your favorite protein (chicken, salmon, grass-fed steak, or tofu) to. They have sweet treats as well. To drink, they have seasonal lemonade, iced tea, kombucha (on tap), wine, and beer.
Thai Cashew Quinoa with Salmon Bowl:
My bowl came out smoking hot - I got a good facial. Very tasty Asian flavors with a bit of a kick from the jalapeño. Lots of textures and flavors. The salmon was nowhere dry or over cooked at all - it was perfection! 5/5
Spicy Japanese Eggplant, Sautéed Spinach + Grass-fed Steak Plate:
With their plates, you can pick 1, 2 or 3 veg/ grains and add a protein. The steak is lean but tender and flavorful. The veggies were delightful with a bit of heat and refreshing tang. 5/5
Brownie:
Gluten-free...I don't have celiac disease so, I'm not afraid/ avoidant of gluten. But if you do have celiac disease, this is the sweet treat for you! Good texture and very mo!$t. 5/5
Lemon Olive Oil Cupcake:
Not only did we try 1 cupcake, we had to get a dozen! I've had lemon Olive oil cupcakes before that only have a hint of lemon and olive oil + regular oil - not good. These cupcakes were so good. Strong flavors. Sweet and savory at the same time. 5/5
Chocolate Chip Cookie:
Another gluten-free item. Made with cashews, coconut and other ingredients without tasting too coconutty. Crunchy. 4/5
One of the highlights for me is their drink station. They have different kinds of teas and lemonades. They're all good and you can get creative by mixing different flavors.
They have neat wall murals, flowers, and little details such as a "yoga mat parking". So, after a good sweat sesh, this is a good spot to eat at with your gym squad.
