I get lunch delivered to me by a company called lunch drop and today we got flower child. I was actually very much enjoying my enchiladas until I take a bite and bite into something hard and jagged. It hurt pretty bad and I washed it off just to see it's a crumpled up piece of metal from something with chipped up paint on it. my gums hurt, and I'm extremely put off. So so dangerous read more

Love the menu and staff here, very helpful when I needed a refund for an item I mistakenly ordered. Parking is a bit tough here as it's only street parking downtown read more

Glow Bowl has me literally glowing! Spicy veggie mix that is tasty and fresh. The past few years, I have adopted a mostly vegetarian diet. This is a tasty resource, and I am so glad I came in today, my first visit. read more

Great healthy salads and bowls done conveniently, healthily, and nice outdoor seating.

always always get the forbidden rice bowl with salmon (& cauliflower risotto) always fresh & delicious! i've brought many friends & family here. definitely in my top ten restaurants in austin! read more

This place is so cute! The food is good and the service was too. I hate to say that the menu items are hit or miss so I wouldn't take a chance here on something you're already on the fence about. The bowls are good but I always recommend the Rebel "French Dip." read more

Good was super tasty. A little pricey for portions and could be more seating, but I'll be back. Recommend Mother Earth read more

I ordered the Glow Bowl and enjoyed the overall flavors but was a bit disappointed with the sweet potato noodle because it wasn't the type of noodle I was expecting. I was hoping that it would have a bit more chewiness and width but it honestly felt like eating shredded carrots, which I wasn't enjoying. That being said, I've tried some of their other dishes, like their wraps and various sides, and did enjoy those better. read more

I tend to find my favorites and return specifically for one thing, a creature of habit, after all. The Brussels & Kale salad has had me hooked even prior to my Whole 30 days (without cheese, should be cleanse-friendly) - snappy greens studded with sweet red grapes, crunchy apple, a touch of tart grapefruit, smoked almonds, and white cheddar. It's a textural party in my mouth that hits all the high notes - sweet, tangy, smoky, zippy, savory YUM with ZERO guilt. I have mine topped with perfectly cooked salmon seasoned with Cajun spices, adding another layer of complexity that blends so well with the sweet-tart apple cider vinaigrette. Clean eating never felt so good! read more

Slow service and my mother eatth bowl tasted just awful. Also didn't include mushrooms. I always have great experience but not this location. I would not recommend the food or the place. Go try out a place called "Local" read more

I was starving but staying downtown and really didn't want to go out. I really wanted something fresh, reasonably healthy. Flower Child did not disappoint. I got the steak salad. It came deconstructed which was nice because I chose fruit and the cucumber salad as my salad options. The steak was absolutely perfect, well seasoned, and tender. The fruit was fresh. The cucumber salad has a little kick. I ate every single bite of everything. I also had a berry lemonade. Portions were perfect with no waste. I easily finished everything. This downtown stay wasn't an easy "store and eat the next day situation". This was just MY situation. It could have been lunch the following day too but I was in a "Too many appointments, then get to work" time frame so I didn't want to cart food around and leave it in my car for undetermined periods of time. I wish I known I needed to request eating utensils (I used a Delivery platform). After unpacking my meal, I had no silverware to eat this dinner. I grabbed a coffee stirrer and ate with my fingers. Somewhat barbaric I know. Thank goodness it wasn't soup or spaghetti! Loved the food. I need to start carrying my own travel utensils I guess because this was the 2nd time I used this delivery platform and didn't get silverware. So request eating utensils if not at home. Or include them when delivering to hotels. Just a suggestion read more

Great healthy meal options! This restaurant was packed, which told me I needed to go in there and grab some lunch. The interior gives a vibe of an indoor- outdoor space. High ceilings, tables set apart, plenty of room to navigate away from the appointed food delivery service counter(which is great, by the way.) I ordered the Chopped ($9.95 fresh) Veggie salad. The ingredient mix was delicious, and I swapped out the Miso vinaigrette for a Gorgonzola vinaigrette. The restaurant has an open kitchen set away from the tables but if you like you can watch your food being prepared. I chose food to go, but I certainly wouldn't mind returning again and taking another dish off their menu, so good! There are a lot of restaurants and cafes in downtown Austin serving healthy fare, and this is one of the many great options if you're in the downtown area. read more

I decided to mix it up during my Austin vegan food tour. I bumped into Flower Child. I decided to get some dinner here. I went with the Mother Earth bowl that comes with ancient grains, sweet potatoes, portobello mushrooms, avocado, cucumbers, broccoli pesto, charred onions, leafy greens, red pepper miso vinaigrette, and hemp seeds. I added tofu as my protein option. The bowl was tasty, healthy, and nourishing. I wish there were more vegan options on the menu since I am a long time vegan yet Mother Earth bowl is a lovely vegan option for vegans and those that love plant based cuisine who are in Austin looking to mix it up a bit. I have had the most amazing vegan Tex Mex innovative tacos here yet the Mother Earth bowl at a Flower Child was a nice paradigm shift. read more

Food was fresh, light and well done. Looking to eat healthy or healthier choices? I would recommend. We had the Turkey avocado wrap, came with a small salad. Pretty tasty. Wife had Mediterranean chicken kabob bowl. It was very delicious. This isn't the kind of place to go if you're looking to get stuffed but it's nice if you're wanting healthy. read more

ORDER Steak with Mac & Cheese and Roasted Broccoli Overall the food on the menu definitely gave off a healthy vibe. I really liked the mac & cheese. It wasn't salty or soggy which was great. It also came in a decent-sized portion. The Roasted Broccoli was seasoned with lemon, garlic, and parmesan bread crumbs. Overall, it was a good mix with the lemon flavor though I do think the roasted broccoli side might have been on the saltier side. As far as the steak, it was mid - a little on the drier side. VIBES There were a lot of people that went in and out during the time we were there (Monday around 6:00 PM). The place is spacious with a decent amount of seating. It's definitely louder but seems like a good place to catch up with friends and chill. Good decorations and aesthetic too - definitely fits the name of the restaurant! read more

I walked in for an order to go. Bowls were scrumptious. Restaurant atmosphere was cute and cozy. Give it a try and you will enjoy too.

Love this spot! Its great for a balanced meal thats super unhealthy. The food is so yummy and flavorful. The chicken yakisoba noodles were great. They came with so many toppings of veggies and chicken. We also got the steak entree with 2 sides. The steak was cooked well and had lots of flavor. We chose the mac n cheese and the kale salad. The mac n cheese is actually so good! Great with some cholula. The kale salad was not my favorite. It was heavily dressed and too acidic in my opinion. The cheese on top was too much. It made it too salty. The flavor profiles just did not mesh and were too antagonizing. I usually love any kale salad but I could not finish this one but everything else was great! read more

I'm a sucker for Flower Child. I really enjoy the variety of options that they provide, particularly with the Pick 3 Plate option. The Simple Sautéed Broccoli is cooked to perfection with a nice crunch to it. The Red Chile Glazed Sweet Potato is another one of my go-to's. The chile glaze pairs nicely with the sweetness of the potato. Last but not least, I always opt for the Gluten-Free Mac and Cheese. I'm a die-hard mac and cheese fan through and through, and you won't be disappointed with the flavor of the dish despite it being gluten-free. It is a bit on the pricier side though. I wish the portion sizes were a bit bigger as I feel like it's not too filling unless you add a protein to your plate. read more

Love how it's fast casual / counter service, but the nice plates and restaurant design makes it feel like a casual brasserie. Everything on the menu seems healthy, especially compared to typical Texas food. And the bowls, with tofu as your protein choice, were a really good value. Crushed Avocado Toast: Felt a little overpriced for what it was. Especially compared to the price of the bowls (with tofu). The avocado was ripe and creamy and delicious. The soft egg felt a bit too gelatinous in the yolk, when it would have been better to be a little runny. The white cheddar shreds were a very nice touch to live up the avocado toast game. But the bread was a bit disappointing, kinda thin and felt like something out of a multi-grain pre-sliced loaf from the grocery store. Mother Earth Bowl w/ Tofu: Ordered this because of all the interesting ingredients. Tender sweet potatoes, that were very sweet. Umami rich portobello mushrooms. A half avocado. A vibrant pesto on the side. It really was wonderful and healthful having all those things together. The grilled tofu was totally worth the add-on too. Though I think the bland sauce could be improved a bit, since it was the only weak link. Forbidden Rice Bowl w/ Tofu: Ok, the red chili hoisin sauce used here is simply amazing. Makes the whole bowl taste wonderful. The ingredients weren't nearly as impressive as the Mother Earth bowl. I mean I'd trade snap peas for sweet potatoes anyway. But that marinade was magical and totally made up for it. read more

worth every penny - food is so fresh. i eat here seriously all the time. tonight my order took not much more than five or 10 minutes than usual.

Peruvian chicken was a disappointment but the other plates my friends were having looked good. I ended up going the following day and the food was better, but wasn't amazing. Good, just not great. With a few small tweaks it could be great. read more

Nice and friendly staff. Kind of cafeteria style because the food is already made. Food is delicious. Some of the few that I LOVE is their salmon, chicken, risotto, broccoli and gold potatoes. read more

Yikes. If you want a healthy bowl or salad, there are other options you can choose from, like Cava or Sweetgreens. Don't come here. I gave this place a couple chances. The first time I got the Ginger Miso Crunch salad. Not bad, but nothing amazing either. The second time I tried the Glow Bowl. When I read "sweet potato" noodle, I was expecting that starchy potato noodle that some Korean restaurants serve. Nope, this was apparently just strips of raw sweet potato. Not the most appetizing. But here's the real kicker. This Glow Bowl gave me food poisoning and I had to go to the ER. I am 100% certain on this because everything else I ate that day was shared with my boyfriend, and he was fine. This was the only meal I ate on my own. So now I also question their food safety and health practices. Again, just don't come here. There are other health-centric options that taste better and won't get you sick. read more

The ordering process was quick and easy. I'm a vegetarian so I saw tons of options and it presented well. Take a chance and dine in one of their many locations:-( read more

Food was really amazing! Had an unforgettable turkey salami salad, kale salad and mac and cheese. This place never disappoints!

Walking in, the vaulted ceilings were beautiful. The set up was a bit like a cafeteria, walk up to a counter. At the counter, the staff was very welcoming and answered the couple of questions we had. As we were grabbing a quick late lunch with dinner plans later, we decided to split the turkey avocado salad. We got our drinks and food was out quickly. Staff was again super helpful, offering and then getting us an extra plate. Salad was fresh and crisp, the combination of veggies was great. Would we come back? Yes, great spot for a fresh healthy lunch. read more

Yes. Yes. Yes. Mediterranean Chicken Kabob Bowl won't only make your taste buds wet, but also... your eyes when you realize you've zoned out and finished the entire bowl, scraping for the last few pieces of quinoa. read more

I used to really like Flower Child and would always make an attempt to eat here whenever I came to the Domain, but recently, I've noticed that their food isn't as good as it used to be. The steak is quite dry, and their sides aren't that good either. It's pretty expensive, and I never feel satisfied with my meal. I get Flower Child's concept, so I think I might need to try their other options that are more popular. However, I always find myself looking at other food places in the area instead of opting in for Flower Child. read more

Lots of great healthy lunch options, I ordered the salmon with the mashed potatoes and the Mac and cheese. The salmon was just okay, nothing special but the Mac and cheese was very good and gluten free. I tried my friends roasted broccoli and that was very good. Also ordered the rose lemonade and it was so fresh. Vibe was cute and casual, indoor and outdoor seating, got pretty busy on the weekend. Patio is dog friendly:) Service was friendly and food came out fairly quick, would eat here again! read more

This place is awesome! Great food, great vibe. So many gluten-free, and vegan, options. Had the Ginger Miso Crunch salad with salmon, Mother Earth bowl, chocolate chip cookie, and lemon cake (it was a cupcake). All gluten-free. I would definitely get the Ginger Miso Crunch and chocolate chip cookie again. The other two items were good but not 5 star. read more

Bianca at the cash register was so sweet and helped me figure out how to get rewards for my purchase since their scanner wasn't working. I got my food within 5-8 min of ordering so super fast! Got my favorite ginger miso crunch salad and broccoli, this location was very generous with the portion of chicken, the largest I've gotten of any flowerchild location. Ingredients were incredibly fresh and the atmosphere was so relaxing easy to get work done and very clean. I'll be back!' read more

Dropped for a healthy meal on a co-worker's recommendation. One of the best meals I've had in recent memory, especially at a ~$20 price point. Salmon entree with quinoa and sweet potato sides.

The outside of this restaurant screams hippy healthy vibes which is exactly what their food embodies. The decor in this place was very intricate and deliberate, it felt like stepping into pinterest paradise. I got the brussel sprouts and squash salad with tofu which was really delicious - these are the best brussel sprouts I have ever tasted in my life. The tofu I could have passed on, but overall very satisfied. The portion was also pretty big, I left with a happy belly. The only minor complaint I had about this place is that it is not the best place to go for large groups. I had about 8 people in my group and it was difficult to find a table. Instead we took our food to go and ate it by the river. Eating my salad, sitting on the grass, watching the geese I felt very at one with nature. read more

This was my first time actually going into Flower Child and trying it. I've typically got it as to-go order from a friend. I'm super impressed by the inside and totally in love with it. I ordered the Glow Bowl with chicken to satisfy my love for sweet potatoes. Never have a been more in love. It's definitely a must try! It was also super savory, but not the point where you're feeling bloated. Overall, cute and tasty. Definitely a favorite here in Austin. read more
