    Ginger crunch
    Elizabeth H.

    Finally!!! A solid salad that is tasty and not a million dollars in the barren food wasteland of Boulder. But seriously, the ginger crunch salad was amazing, with added chicken, and really healthy too! Thank you!!!

    In town to visit CU and wanted a healthy quick lunch! The space is open and well appointed - lots of tables and cute ambiance! The menu is definitely different and everything was excellent quality! This wouldn't be a place to bring picky eaters but we enjoyed it!

    Excellent food. Build your own entree. Service was quick , Food delivered to your table, per a number flag ure given. cleanup was efficient and un rushed. Dining area is clean and modern.

    Mediterranean Chicken Kabob
    Alexa G.

    A great healthy lunch spot! They have a great menu of different options - salads, bowls, wraps, etc. And a variety of drinks too. Their lemonade was really good and not overly sweet. I got the Mediterranean chicken kabob bowl and it was super yummy! You order at the counter and then they bring the food out to you. And the inside was super cute. They also have a covered patio which would be nice to sit outside when it's warm. I would definitely come back!

    Chopped Vegetable Salad
    Alex L.

    Clean and healthy feeling food! They have a variety of bowls and salads. Tried the chopped vegetable salad which was tasty, definitely a very gingery dressing. It was exactly what I needed.

    While visiting Boulder my wife and I were happy to find Flower Child. Of course we only have so much time while visiting and want to try so many places but Flower Child was so good we had to have it twice in such a short time. The food was so fresh and flavorful and the abundance of gluten free options really was fantastic. And of course that chocolate chip cookie really hit the spot. Especially after letting it warm up a little in the sun! We will gladly come back next time we are in town. The staff was very friendly and helpful and attentive to keeping things flowing smoothly. There is ample indoor seating and a nice outdoor space as well.

    Salad with grilled chicken  nice sangria and lemonade also

    Very excellent place for a healthy meal whereby you don't feel like...well... crap after you eat there. Very tasty salads and a very good fruit side dish Go there... Again!

    Thai Chicken & Shrimp Meatballs
    Cheryl H.

    What a cute place! They have a very healthy fresh menu with interesting items and combinations. The Thai chicken meatballs were incredible, the dish looks small but it was so filling. They have a variety of drink options to choose from including rose petal lemonade and tea. The service was fast and the place was very busy, very popular.

    A solid option if you are wanting casual fast healthy food. Order at the counter and build your own meal or choose from one of the preset options. We've gotten food to go and eaten inside many times. My family loves this place - good or vegetarian options. I personally find it a little bit pretentious, like they are trying too hard to be "Boulder".

    Miso crunch salad with steak and steak entree with cauliflower risotto and maple butternut squash
    Sophie W.

    First off the food was amazing! Everything was cooked perfectly and tasted delicious, the steak was imo perfectly done and the portions were large, I loved the risotto and squash as well! The server and cashiers were all very nice and their service was fast. I also saw a customer complaining to the staff about the food and they handled it extremely well when he was being rude. The place also had amazing ambiance it was well lit, clean and the decoration were beautiful!

    Avocado Caesar w/ chicken
    Hannah M.

    Ate lunch here for the first time today, and it was so delicious! Portions are generous and the quality of the food is amazing--definitely worth the price. We got the ginger miso crunch with salmon (cooked medium rare, as requested) and the avocado caesar with chicken. I couldn't believe how generous they were with the avocado! I don't think I've ever been given this much at any restaurant...like ever. Please don't change that, because that would be such a disappointment. Also, props to flower child for actually cooking our salmon to medium rare--you'd be surprised how many restaurants, even in Hawaii, mess that one up and ignore the customer's request. Loved the ambiance and the option to sit indoors or outdoors. Staff was nice as well, which can make or break a dining experience. I'd definitely return and would consider doing take out in the future. Highly recommend.

    Slit Brussels Sprout Saad and Chicken Enchilada Bowl (split so there was another two plates for my wife).

    Stopped by Flower Child in Boulder, was looking for a place to be outside with our dog on the patio, as well as some Gluten free food options. They didn't disappoint, my wife and I split the Brussels Sprout and Kale Salad along with the Chicken Enchilada Bowl(she is not GF and loved both). Both were amazing and they split the plates for us. We will come back when in town. Highly recommend.

We tried a lot of things on the menu and liked each dish. But our absolute favorites were the kimchi sweet potato fries (this was a crowd favorite dish and we're still dreaming about it), ginger chili potstickers (so good!), and the hot fudge cake with ice cream for dessert (melt in your mouth warm chocolate cake with ice cream, it was 10 out of 10). We also enjoyed the butternut penne, everything crunch salad, and butternut squash arancini which were all delicious. Also, the bread deserves its own shout out - very soft and warm, and still rich in flavor. Easily the best bread I've had in a long time. Service was great with a friendly and attentive staff. Ambiance was warm, inviting, cozy and sophisticated. Would definitely recommend stopping here to anyone!!

I've been here many times in a variety of ways--sat at the bar, at tables with friends and by myself, both inside and outside, and even experienced the large farm table prix fixe menu, which was fantastic. My experiences have consistently been great--the food, service, and atmosphere have always been top-notch. Tonight, however, was my first disappointing visit. I ordered the root vegetable bruschetta, which was very good. I also ordered the butternut squash penne pasta, a dish I've had before and really enjoyed. Unfortunately, this time it was extremely spicy. I'm not sure if the recipe has changed or if it was just a heavy hand in the kitchen, but it was not something I could eat. I mentioned it to the waiter, who didn't have an answer, so I simply asked for a to-go container. Since I couldn't eat it, I later gave the container to a homeless woman sitting nearby with her grocery cart. On my way out, I spoke with someone at the door who brought over the manager. The manager asked if he could see the dish, so I opened the container for him. He then asked if he could taste it and reached in, picked up a noodle, and tried it, saying he didn't notice anything unusual. He also wasn't aware of any changes to the recipe. I suggested that if the dish is now spicy, it might be helpful to note that on the menu so guests know what to expect. What left me disappointed wasn't just the dish itself, but how the situation was handled. There wasn't an offer to replace the meal or provide an alternative, which would have gone a long way. As someone who is only about six months into living in Colorado and a new business owner in the area, I often refer places I believe in. Tonight left me questioning whether I will continue to recommend Leaf based on how this was handled, though I'm hopeful that by tomorrow morning I may feel differently. That said, based on my many past positive experiences, I still believe Leaf is a great restaurant. I just hope this was an off night and that a little more attention is given to both consistency in the kitchen and how concerns are handled moving forward.

There are only two tables on their patio that have an umbrella, so we were sitting in the sun at first and it was getting really hot (but then we were able to snag a shaded table when it freed up shortly after) All of the menu options sounded so good, we started with drinks, I can't remember the name of my cocktail, but it had egg white in it and was so delicious. We ordered the burrata appetizer and all of our means at the same time. Unfortunately, the appetizer never came out, our server for that to put it in. I ended up going with the Bolognese and it was really good so was the steak frites and street cart chicken that my friends had. Their fries are pretty good. The server felt really bad for forgetting about our appetizer and offered us a free dessert instead, so we tried the churro donuts which were ok. I'm still it was a good meal and I would definitely come back if I'm in the Boulder area again soon

My husband had the happy hour special of the evening, a very large serving of large mussels with grilled sourdough and a lucious broth. We also had some small plate tapas and I mostly grazed those. I love Bocarones and they do it so well though for me last night, the peppers were a bit too spicy. But I got the majority of the little fishies, my husband the peppers.. We also had the tortilla papas and the charred Hazel Dell mushrooms which were excellent. The little salad topping on the tortilla was full of specialty greens like fennel fronds and pea shoots. The mushrooms has a warm egg yolk on top to stir into the dressing which was tasty. We finished with their flan which was as good as my Spanish born neighbor made in my youth. I had a very nice tea with it. I was originally going to knock off a star for pricing but honestly, I don't think they have much option these days. But sadly we will go less frequently in the future.
