    my bf and i come here pretty often because the quality of food never misses! the ingredients are always fresh and the food is healthy the service is great too

    Peruvian Braised Beef  Seasonal option
    Angie M.

    Stopped in for a quick healthy lunch meeting with a friend. Parking was easy and the location is in the heart of the busy Uptown Park area of the Galleria The food was delicious and came out hot and quick. There was plenty of seating and I'm so happy that their food is always consistent no matter what location you choose.

    Roasted Sweet Potato Fries
    Adannaya I.

    Came here for the first time after a Pilates class with my friend and it was so good! The perfect place to get something healthy, fresh, and filling! I ordered the rebel French dip with some sweet potatoes fries and it was tasty. The wrap was filling, full of protein, and came with a soup dip that honestly didn't add much to the dish. I wish the fries had a bit more crunch. My friend got the bbq chicken wrap which I like d much better because of the sauce that comes with it. Overall I definitely recommend for anytime looking to eat out while staying healthy!

    Mother Earth
    Vanessa Z.

    Flower Child has been my go-to for the past year, and I really enjoy this location compared to others across Houston. The Mother Earth bowl has the freshest ingredients with flavors that complement each other so well. The Rose lemonade is my favorite drink to pair with my meal. I tend to stick to one favorite dish until I'm ready to move on to the next, and I'm excited to discover my next favorite on their menu. I love the whimsical elegance of this location!

    Roasted Broccoli
    Destinee R.

    Stopped here for lunch after a workout for a cleaner option and was pleasantly surprised. I view it as an American Cava or Chipotle. I opted for the build your own bowl option and ordered the chicken, red chili glazed sweet potatoes, roasted broccoli and brussel sprouts. My only negative is I wish the options included a sauce. I ended up asking for a blue cheese vinaigrette which was a nice compliment to everything (especially the chicken which was a bit bland). The brussel sprouts had bits of bok choy in it that were crunchy and good. The broccoli could've been a little less charred, but loved the Parmesan it was coated in. After ordering I saw a few more options I'd like to try so I'll def be back. The interior is nicely designed and gives a homey vibe.

    Mediterranean Chicken Kabob Bowl
    Nicolas F.

    Busy lunch atmosphere! Service was very accommodating and we did not have to wait long. The chicken and the Mediterranean bowl was very good and I enjoyed the quality fresh ingredients. Cobb salad was slightly above average did not have eggs and with deli meat, turkey still enjoyable. Overall, I feel the fresh ingredients made this place worth it, although overpriced for the portion sizes. Will come back!

    I have been a customer of Flower Child for the past several years at other locations. This was my first time at the Memorial location. I love the ambiance and the spaciousness. The parking is easy and no issue in comparison to other locations. After shopping at gap, I wanted a quick meal. The young lady was pleasant who took my order. I did not want a full Meal so I opted for the kids meal. Parmesan Broccoli Garlic Mash Chicken The plate was flavorful and I was full and left feeling healthy! The Guava Sangria was nice and refreshing. They also allowed me to sample. Not pictured is the cashew choco cookie that I devoured. I forgot how much that cookie gives life. I think this will be my new location as I loved everything from the service, food, parking and location.

    Nice beach type atmosphere.
    Walter R.

    Easy casual California beach house kind of feel. Friendly service, clean, healthy, good food. Maybe a bit more expensive than comparable places, but fresh, organic food is never cheap. I have been before, and I will return.

    Entree + 2 sides (Steak, Chilled Sesame Noodles, Grilled Asparagus & White Bean) (bottom). "Forbidden" Rice + Chicken (top).
    Shannyn Q.

    This is my go-to place for healthy and delicious food! My staple is normally grilled chicken thigh yakitori noodles but this time I decided to gamble and try the entree + 2 sides combination. I got steak as the entree, and the chilled sesame noodles and the grilled asparagus & white bean. My friend got the forbidden rice with chicken. Both entrees were sooo delicious! There's a reason why this is my go-to spot! It's counter-service so you order at the front then find a seat. Overall it's a great experience, there are lots of seating, and again, my favorite healthy food restaurant!

    Salmon with brown rice and broccoli
    Cindy L.

    I will never not crave this spot! The weather was so nice outside and we sat outside and the vibes were so great! My usual go to is the Mother Earth bowl with salmon add on, so flavorful and delicious I can't believe it's healthy. My bf ventured to try the chicken enchiladas not knowing it was one of the popular items, and when I TELL YOU, the chicken was so juicy and seasoning was on point! He was shocked at how delicious it was, expecting it to be a bit of a fusion but it was surprisingly incredible. Definitely will be getting it again for sure. Staff was nice and sweet behind the counter and with bringing out our food to the patio!

    Chicken Enchiladas
    Ayesha W.

    I had heard so many great things about this restaurant but there isn't a location near me. Was in the area so decided to grab something to eat. The restaurant is large with patio seating available. It is counter service but the line moves quickly. I ordered the chicken enchiladas and they were 10/10. I can't wait to go back and try more menu items.

    Mother Earth + Salmon*  Mango Flower Child Seasonal Lemonade or Iced Tea
    MaKayla G.

    I had the Mother Earth Bowl add Salmon. The bowl was surprisingly flavorful! The restaurant is beautiful! Indoor and outdoor there was lots of seating. It's a little on the pricey side. The service was very fast, you order at the register and take a number. The only reason I didn't leave a 5star 1. My salmon wasn't seasoned or cooked well (which I asked) Other than that, great experience. I'll be back.

    Avocado Hummus
    Kartanya B.

    In my healthy girl era. So happy they have food places that caters to health and wellness. I absolutely enjoyed my experience at Flower Child. The quality of my food was outstanding, Everything was fresh! I ordered started with the avocado hummus and I subbed the pita bread for veggies. For my entree, I ordered the mother grain bowl. Service was great, I was greeted and helped immediately when I arrived. So happy I came across this establishment. Definitely will return!

    Is everything here vegan?

    No, not everything is vegan but there are vegan (and gluten or dairy free) options. Meat lovers and vegetarians have plenty of options since the protein added (if any) is a choice in many of the dishes.

    Is the patio dog friendly? 🐶

    Yep! Your furry friends are always welcome on our patio.

    I've been wanting to try this restaurant for a little while now and since I had training in The…read moreHeights for work. I had my opportunity to. Parking is on the opposite side of the temple. The grounds of the temple is well manicured and neat with flowers. A big red sign read, "Govinda" was positioned so that I wouldn't miss it. As soon as I walked in at lunch time, the restaurant was damn near empty with only two families. The host immediately sat me at a table front of the buffet line. There was a strong lingering smell of pine-sol and Mr. Clean in the air. Of course, that indication told me that the restaurant was clean. The items on the buffet line was plenty, but limited. I got the rice, tofu curry, chaat marsala, and some vegetables. Everything except for the chaat was bland. It wasn't very easy to eat while the smell of cleaning supplies was in the air. It reminded me of sitting in a bucket of cleaning chemicals while eating a meal. The tofu curry tasted only like turmeric, but no salt or pepper or anything. The rice was super bland. The chaat marsala was very tasty and well seasoned. I finished off with desserts which both options were tasty. I hope to return to try their holiday menu, but I think today was a bad day for the cooks.

    Nut allergy warning: I can't recommend eating here if you have a severe allergy. Although dishes…read moreare clearly labeled with ingredients, I still had an allergic reaction with a dish. Since the dishes are different every day, there's really no guarantee that you'll be safe, and cross contamination is a possibility since it's a buffet line. I tried to email ahead of time but never got a reply. We arrived around noon on a Wednesday and there was plenty of seating inside. There is a lot directly across the street for Govinda's customers. Cafeteria buffet-style line. Don't overcrowd your plate, just go back for seconds. Since the menu changes daily, I don't think there's much of a point to review specific dishes. I will say that there's a nice variety of salad, soup, and homemade feeling Indian dishes that everyone really liked. I particularly enjoyed the salad dressing (an avocado cream), the veggie lentil soup, and the spinach potato dish. Unfortunately, the special of the day or a dish near it (the soya Manchurian? Or the curry?) triggered some kind of inflammatory allergic reaction for me, so I had to stop eating. I did try some of the mango cake, which had a great soft and moist texture that I'd definitely have again. -1 star because of the allergic reaction but overall, everyone I went with really enjoyed the food and the service was welcoming and attentive for a buffet. The ambiance is great and it's a lovely setting all around.

The ambiance as soon as you walk in is welcoming, inviting, and intimate. Even if you dine outside, you are sure to feel cozy like a meal in your own home. The hostess always makes you feel invited. Any waiter we have had here has given GREAT recommendations so it helps us break free of ordering the same thing over and over. We have never had a single day of bad service here so we have become regulars anytime we travel into the inner loop of Houston for business or fun. The flavors? My goodness the flavor here in every dish truly speaks to whoever is cooking these incredible dishes! We've even wanted to ask what we can do to even get our dishes at home this amazing! Their bang bang sauce is something you can rave about if you like a little kick to your broccoli. Yum! Luckily a lot of the appetizers are family style but we all still end up battling to finish the last bite before our main dish comes along! My husband has never been a vegetable eater and thanks to the Ginger Mule, we are changing up our dishes at home too! Whatever they are doing here, I hope they keep it up because we absolutely LOVE the food here!! Thank you to everyone here and we can't wait to be back!!!!

(My husband and I did a 360 of the building not knowing lol). The decor was earthy, natural boho style. The service was great. Hostess was welcoming, server was kind and the food came out relatively quick. Beautiful presentation and the flavors were yummy of the Texas toast French toast, the oat whipped cream & maple syrup were great. The Jupiter breakfast was $21 & the GF French toast was about $12 with $4 fruit cup. Unfortunately, I was disappointed with my GF French toast. The mock-tail mule was nothing special for $9 of juice :/. In total we spent $58 which is a lot in our opinion. By all means it's not a bad spot and I'm sure other things you are good, but this was just our experience with what we got. There is a statue of a deity in the front of the restaurant & I welcome the Holy Spirit to come upon them all :). May Jesus be with them with eyes to see and ears to hear. There may be other gods but there is only one God, King Jesus Christ Isaiah 43:10-28 God bless

Lots of TVs to watch the Olympic Games while you wait for dinner. I liked watching the open pizza oven. They make a lot of pizzas here. The Eat, Drink, HTX menus are a great way to try new restaurants while giving back to the Houston Food Bank. A starter, an entree and a dessert. $25 for dinner. So many choices on this menu. A great deal while helping out those in need. "Started" with the Turkey Samosas. Four crispy pastries that are filled with seasoned ground turkey, potatoes and parsley served with cucumber yogurt. Delicious! The Ember & Greens Soup that my family had was hot, hot, hot and so tasty. The fresh soup was filled with a blend of spinach, parsley, and cilantro with chickpeas, caramelized onions, pinto beans and quinoa. My FIL polished off his bowl! For dinner, we all had the Blackened Salmon. The salmon with lemon butter and avocado salsa served on roasted carrots, broccoli and potatoes and a bed of quinoa. It was a full plate, which we all took home for dinner the next day. Note: it is quite buttery. My FIL had his butter and avocado salsa on the side which worked for him. I loved mine as is. Even though we were pretty full, we still enjoyed dessert. The tiramisu was so indulgent. Loved the layered mascarpone custard, whipped cream, coffee liqueur and coffee-soaked ladyfingers. My FLI had the Chia Seed Pudding with fresh berries. What a great meal. We had a slight hiccup where the appetizers came slightly after the main meal was served, but they were so honest about what happened that I still have to give them five stars for their food and their service. Would try them again for their generous, delicious meals. Lots of parking. Water glasses were frequently filled both with and without meals.

It was a beautiful day, so it would have been the perfect day to eat outside if you like that. I'm an eat indoors kind of person, but if you like to eat outside, they do have a few tables for that. I was meeting a friend for lunch and she suggested Ember & Green. We really couldn't decide what to order, so we decided to order a few things and share them. We started off with the Persian Cucumber Sald. It had Persian cucumbers, heirloom cherry tomatoes, red onions, and Kalamata olives with oil and lemon dressing and topped with parsley and feta cheese. Let me tell you, thats lemon dressing was delicious! It went so well with the cucumbers. Next we ordered Blackened salmon with lemon butter and avocado salsa, served with charred broccolini, roasted carrots and potatoes on a bed of cilantro green pea quinoa. I'm really not a huge fan of salmon, but I'm trying to like it more by trying it different ways. The spices that they put on the salmon were really good, not too spicy, but also, not bland. It was also cooked perfectly. Oh, and that lemon butter... that lemon butter made the meal if you ask me. It was so good. So good in fact, I had to try and make salmon with lemon butter at him the very next week. Mine didn't come out as good as Ember & Greens, but it was decent. That just means that I need to leave the cooking to the professional. For dessert we decided to share the Skillet Cookie. Its a house made chocolate chip cookie baked in a cast iron skillet and topped with Amy's Mexican Vanilla Ice Cream and chocolate sauce. This was the only thing that we ordered that was a nope. I dont know what happened, but it didn't seem like it was cooked at all in the middle. We took a few bites, that was all we could eat of it. All and all, it was a good experience and I will go back. I'll just skip dessert next time.
