    Turkey & Avocado Cobb. Roasted Sweet Potato Fries. Lemon Olive Oil Cake
    Courtney A.

    Cute spot! We stumbled on this place while we were on a wait for an hour at another place and decided to come here instead. Perfect timing. We just missed the rush. So many GF options. We got the turkey Cobb salad and the sweet potato fries. As well as the olive oil lemon cake to go. Everything was so so good. Staff was really friendly and attentive. We'll be coming back soon.

    Years ago, long before I moved here and I was only visiting Austin for the first time, Flower Child stole my heart. After a long day of walking around downtown in the hot sun, it was a cool, clean oasis with a refreshingly healthy menu, placing vegetables front and center. Though I don't visit this location as much now that I live here and have to worry about parking, or the lack thereof, I'm still every bit as obsessed with the Mother Earth Bowl, Glow Bowl, Chopped Vegetable Salad, and Cauliflower Risotto. It's made with dietary restrictions in mind, offering clearly labeled vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free, options alongside omnivorous items. You can even get the full nutritional low-down on their website if you're concerned about macros. Between the flavors, quality of ingredients, and even pricing, I've never walked out of here feeling bad about my choices.

    Healthy lunch option in downtown Austin. Busy during the lunch rush. Fast service though.

    I was staying at the Westin on business, and walked here for lunch. Delicious, healthy food, fast and friendly service and a nice outdoor seating area.

    I definitely wish that I would have gotten a bigger portion, especially for the price, but overall it was a good experience and the food was yummy.

    Flower Child is a treat when visiting a state with them as a Washingtonian without one. I absolutely love the fresh bowls, teas and amazing ambiance of the Flower Child chain. I've tried many different bowls and done for dine in and takeaway and either way, the quality of the food is excellent and the service is amazing. 10/10 recommend blending 1/2 green tea and 1/2 lemonade - delicious!

    Salmon Smashed Gold Potato

    The ambiance of this particular location is very nice and cozy. Parking wasn't too much of a hassle however we came here during the middle of a work week for dinner after the afternoon rush. My boyfriend got the salmon with smashed potatoes and Mac and cheese. The pasta is always so rich and we would not have ever been able to guess it was gluten free. The salmon was a bit on the drier and smaller side. Overall, the prices at this establishment are on the higher side so we would've loved to see a bigger portion size. I got the chicken which was flavorful when you added their hot sauces. I also got the sweet potato fries. It came on a separate plate so there were a lot and overall it was pretty tasty. It had good seasoning and paired nicely with the side of dill ranch they give you!

    The Flower Child is conveniently located downtown in the center of many places to visit. The place is very spacious and a ton of great food options. You place your order and they bring it to you. The food was tasty and fresh. The person taking the order was very friendly. She let me sample the kombucha as well. I enjoyed the kombucha on tap, a salad with shrimp, and the hummus. This is a great place if you want to easily grab a meal and want something healthy. The place has a great calm ambiance as well. Would def recommend!

    Flower child makes it easy to give them a 5 out of 5. They opened about 1 year after I had moved to Austin from upstate NY. For those like me, this will come as a pleasant surprise - their menu really does not change! The best bowl, in my opinion, is the Mother Earth and adding the Salmon. How the restaurant is setup, it reminds you of a Parisian cafe with a large exterior seating area and a wide open area inside with 2" thick marble tabletops! They offer to-go orders during the weeknights, this is a great go-to as they offer family meals through their smart phone app. You will be greeted and help with really polite staff who will be asking if need anything along your stay with them! Really recommend! You'll be in for a treat - I'm merely visiting from New York and it is my must see restaurant when I come.

    Mother Earth bowl with tofu
    Mag T.

    The Kung pow cauliflower is delicious and a must order. The mother earth bowl was great I added tofu and it was seasoned perfectly. Only negative was the avocado in the bowl was on the brown side.

    Downtown experience was nice as I got to share and enjoy the Flower Child (FC) experience besides my home base FC in the Domain. Food is on point and staff is ultra friendly and helpful. Family are now fans too ;D

    Thai Chicken & Shrimp Meatballs
    J M.

    Went in to get the Thai Chicken and Shrimp Meatballs, before it was taken off the menu for summer. The meatballs were made of ground chicken meat and bits of shrimp, although it was difficult to taste or see the shrimp. The meatballs were covered with a Marsala sauce and the dish came with jasmine rice and a salad composed of fennel, herb and lemon yogurt. I'm giving it four stars because I wasn't a fan of the salad, as the yogurt was too heavily applied and the flavors weren't that tasty to my common flavor buds. I did like the meatballs and Marsala sauce.

    Great option for healthier eats and plenty to take home for leftovers. Plenty of seating midweek for an earlier dinner.

    Where can i park? is there validation? where is the closest lot?

    There's only street parking available. There's parking lots/decks nearby but I don't think they validate.

    Do they have reliable internet?

    As reliable as any public WIFI

She was totally on top of us I had the lobster pasta and friend had the ahi tacos. They did not skimp on portions. The tacos were so full of tuna it has hard to keep it all inside the shell! So very tasty and extremely fresh ahi for sure. The lobster pasta went beyond my expectations! The pasta was definitely homemade and cooked to the perfect texture. The sauce was not over powering yet very tasty for sure. And the lobster meat. Not sprinkled in like other places. Absolutely not! There was a hefty amount of lobster for sure! They did not hold back. This would be good for a girls night out or a very nice dinner date place.

They offer a full bar and also a coffee place with pastries and other baked goods. They seem to be connected to a hotel. The restrooms were up a few flights of stairs or you can use the elevator to the 2nd floor. I didn't know that. The upstairs portion could be rented out for special occasions or events. Our server was super friendly and helpful. She recommended a couple of her favorite smoothies. I ordered the Sweet Corn Cake Benedict: poached eggs, jalapeño cheddar corn cakes, avocado, tomato & corn salsa (4/5). I liked and enjoyed my breakfast, which was fresh and light. Berry Basil Smoothie: blueberry, strawberry, basil, banana, agave, pomegranate, coconut water, lime juice (4/5). This was very delicious. My coworkers order the Everything Sandwich: everything cream cheese, peppered bacon, baby kale, roasted roma tomatoes (4/5). Flavorful, with a light freshness of all the ingredients. My other coworker ordered a side of Breakfast Potatoes & a Detox Juice: acai, pomegranate, coconut water, lime. Both really liked the breakfast potatoes, which had a crisp exterior crunch yet soft and creamy inside. Come check them out. Support your local business.

It's family-owned, warm, and genuinely welcoming in a way that feels increasingly rare. From the moment you walk in, you can tell they care deeply about both the food and the people they're serving. The food is consistently fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. You can taste the quality in every bite -- nothing feels rushed or phoned in. The portions are generous without being over the top, and everything we've tried has been full of authentic flavor and perfectly seasoned. It's the kind of meal where you're already planning what you'll order next time before you've even finished. And Gio? Truly outstanding. He strikes that perfect balance of attentive without hovering. He knows the menu inside and out, offers thoughtful recommendations, and makes you feel genuinely taken care of. You can tell he takes pride in what he does -- he's warm, personable, and elevates the entire experience. Service like that makes a difference, and Gio absolutely delivers. What really sets Farmand's apart is that combination of incredible food and heartfelt hospitality. Austin has no shortage of great restaurants, but Farmand's Kitchen stands out because it feels personal and intentional every single time. It's one of those places we recommend immediately when someone asks where they should eat -- and we'll absolutely keep coming back.
