Great staff and service. Food was just okay. Brussel sprouts and mashed potatoes were fine. Salmon was bland. I guess it's a trade off for being healthy and clean? read more

Found this great place while in the area for a meeting. Bustling place during the 12 o'clock hour, but ordering moved fast. A lot on the menu that looked tasty, but I settled for the glow bowl with steak and it did not disappoint. Food came out fast, hot and tasty! If you are in a hurry for lunch and want something tasty yet healthy, here is a great place to try. read more

Flower Child - Glow Bowl with steak - New American Near Me - McLean, Virginia

If you're the kind of person who sees "this takes healthy!" and "this tastes delicious!" as two very different things, then this review might be for you. We found everything at Flower Child to taste incredibly healthy. It was totally all edible. I probably won't volunteer to go back, but if I do, I can find something to eat. The location is great. It's right on the end of the main strip in The Boro with tall glass windows that let in plenty of light. Made me feel a bit like I was sitting in a french cafe somewhere in Paris. Well, except for the dearth of Parisians. Plus, the interior layout was very open with good spacing between tables, tall ceilings, etc... we definitely felt very comfortable indoors. Really liked the artwork, was a great touch. Rest assured, we got pictures of the family in front of the wall art. The food was ... mostly ok. Seems like the special for the ... ah... day? week? month? was a chicken shawarma wrap--and ostensibly the best of the three entrees we ordered. My wife ordered the roasted chicken, smashed potatoes, and brussels sprouts. She concluded that because it was a custom bowl, she probably didn't mix the right flavors. They were all "okay" by themselves, but didn't pair well. I ordered the teriyaki shrimp and avocado. How best to describe this. The shrimp was delicious and nicely drenched in teriyaki sauce. The bowl also contained brown rice, cauliflower, snap peas, avocado, bok choy, shittake mshrooms, and corn. Sadly I don't have a lot of positive things to say here. The ingredients did not tie together in any way. Every fork-full was an independent sensation: oh, I'm eating mostly raw cauliflower now; aha, this snap pea sure is chewy; mmm some rice... good thing I happened to pick up some of the sauce sitting in the bottom of the bowl so it's not so dry. I was pretty excited about the shittake mushrooms but really couldn't taste any of the five shriveled slices in the bowl. Will I come back? Maybe. I didn't leave offended. But I also didn't leave satisfied. read more

Been to many Flower Child locations and always have a good meal. This location is in the Boro. The location is pretty large and has a good amount of outdoor seats. I have the Mother Earth Bowl with Steak. It was good, but kinda pricey. It took a bit to be ready (20ish min) but it was good and filling. read more

I really enjoyed my meal at flowerchild. Watching my calories and what I put into my body is sometimes a challenge but flower child made it so easy. They have a lot of low calorie options with nutrition facts for all their items. I only got a bowl and their GF Mac and cheese but I enjoyed both. I am looking forward to going back and trying their entrees. I sat outside when I went on a nice October night and the atmosphere was great! read more

We went here early in the summer as some of the pandemic restrictions were relaxing. We like their menu which is healthy. We sat inside after ordering at the counter. After ordering, customers receive a stanchion with a number to place on their selected table. When the food is ready, the staff delivers it to the table based on the displayed number. We had the turkey avocado cobb salad and a veggie plate. The veggie plate choices were cauliflower and quinoa, Yuzu brussels sprouts, and glazed sweet potatoes. We had glasses or wine and beer. The location expects payment at the time the food is ordered and expects customers to pay a tip before experiencing the quality of the service. After ordering, customers have little interaction with the staff. The food was enjoyable. read more

I had to make a trip to McLean and remembered seeing recommendations for Flower Child. I can't believe I missed this during my previous tips. My daughter and I ordered ahead since we were in a hurry. The app was super easy to use and I was able to weed out options that contained gluten for me. They had SO many options that looked delicious, it was tough to choose. After submitting my order the wait was around 15 minutes plus they delivered the food right to my car, which was extremely kind of them. I ended up with the Glow Bowl. It smelled amazing and it was beyond delicious. I love a good veggie bowl and this hit all the notes. It was crunchy and warm and flavorful. Mmm... My daughter decided to get an entree with chicken, broccoli, and the smashed potatoes. She said it was really good and would definitely go back. She also had the seasonal lemonade, which was rose petal, and raved about it. I had a sip and ohmygosh, so good. We will be back. If you are looking for quick, delicious, healthy food, this is your stop. read more

Flower Child - Glow Bowl with tofu - New American Near Me - McLean, Virginia

This seems like a great place for a wholesome, healthy meal but the food can be hit or miss depending on what you get. I wasn't a huge fan because my mashed potatoes were too salty and my eggplant was too minty. But my friend really liked her Mother Nature bowl and appreciated that the food was flavorful despite being vegetarian. It has a lot of outdoor seating so it's a lovely place to catch up with friends. The menu is healthy so I'd suggest checking it out! read more

Very fresh salad and nicely done salmon. Enjoyed the glow bowl, but wish it felt healthier lol The snow peas were somewhat tough and could be fresher I wish they had some smoothie items or fresh pressed juice, I feel like it would fulfill the vibe. read more

Cute, chic and healthy restaurant serving many vegan and vegetarian options. I was in the area and needed to kill some time to not have to deal with traffic. There are many Flower Child restaurants in the DMV so it seems like a franchise. It was my first time here. It is across the street from Tysons galleria in a new development with other restaurants and a Whole Foods. They have a tables outside with umbrellas so I opted for outdoors since it was a good day. I ordered the sweet potatoe noodle entree with tofu. I must say I'm not a fan of tofu but this was amazing. The tofu was grilled. The noodles were delicious in the sauce they used and it had plenty of veggies in the dish. It is a good portion so it was filling. I also had a pomegranate kombucha, it was so refreshing. The staff was very helpful and patient while I was trying to decide on my meal read more

Good food; fair price! Can't go wrong with any protein or salad. Or sides. All good! Steak good Corn and quinoa good Brocolli good Sweet potato good Shrimp good Salmon good Yaki chicken noodle is good. Ramen was ok; but it was a limited item. Chicken is a bit dry but flavor is good. Overall eat here probably once every two weeks. read more

This is my favorite lunch spot in the Tysons area. Fresh and delicious salads and more!

Bottom Line: Flavorful, healthy food but still very filling and appealing. Ahh, this is such a great place! It is happy and inviting on the exterior and the interior is welcoming and comforting. I was in the area for business and stopped in for lunch not knowing anything about Flower Child. One thing I learned is that I sure wish there was a Flower Child location near me. Even though Flower Child is billed as healthy they do still have filling and comforting options. When I visited I was fighting a cold and I wanted something to sink my teeth into so I got a turkey and avocado wrap that was packed full of veggies and flavor. Fresh iced tea is just what I needed to wash it down. The decor is cute and the employees are friendly! read more

Nothing special. Food has little flavor but is edible. I asked for soft boiled eggs on my salad. They were pretty much cold pre-bought boiled eggs. Salad was not flavorful at all and the snap peas were still frozen! My husband got the "Bird is the word" wrap and claimed it wasn't tasty either. Unfortunately we will not be back. read more

Flower Child - Vwgtt try Large Chopped Vegetable Salad (with egg) - New American Near Me - McLean, Virginia

Drove by this place a bunch of times so I looked at the menu and figured it was a possible healthy option so after a weekend of bad eating, decided it was time. We placed a pickup order online for an early dinner. We got the avocado hummus, two forbidden rice bowls (one with chicken), sweet corn & quinoa, and braised super greens. It was hard to find parking outside of the garage so keep that in mind. The food travels very well though which is a plus. The hummus was different than what I'm used to, a little corn and a nice hint of avocado. Wish there was more pita/bread. The forbidden rice bowls were great. Rice was perfectly cooked and the veggies were so crispy and fresh tasting. The chicken really made my bowl filling. Loved how creamy the braised super greens were and if they're healthy I'm shocked. The corn and quinoa side was ok, nothing crazy. If I'm looking for a healthy option, this is definitely make the rotation because of the options they have. I look forward to trying the rest of the menu. read more

Omg! I will be back! Very cute place! I got the Yaki noodles and they were so flavorful and with very fresh ingredients! Didn't need to add anything to this and was blown away! I would suggest the noodles and this place to anyone! My friend also got the mother bowl and she said it was great. The service was good, didn't go above and beyond but it was okay for dine in. read more

Food was fresh fresh fresh! Vegan/veg options. Friendly counter staff. Mother Earth bowl super yummy. The mushroom/onion mix has this wonderful smoky flavor. The ancient grains were cooked to the perfect texture. The sweet potato has a strong spicy ginger dressing. Colorful, flavorful, healthy. The avo cesar with salmon, nice portion. Thought it was just with avo ceasar dressing but salad come with lots of fresh avo cuts too. Dining room was mostly empty but dirty! Seemed like the staff preferred to do one big sweep all at once rather than clean as people leave. Picking a seat was essentially avoiding a dirty table. Within 5 min a busser went around and cleared all the tables so I guess I was just there at a bad time, otherwise everything else was sparkling clean. Great place for pickup or quick lunch! read more

I ordered the steak entree with brussel sprouts and mac and cheese. A delicious combo but the brussel sprouts were a tad too salty. However they were cook really well with nice crunchy bits! The steak is cook medium and it was flavored well. If you like your steak well done, try something else! The mac and cheese was creamy! I would order that entree again but maybe ask for less salt on the brussel sprouts. The staff were all very nice and friendly. They kept their masks on, had hand sanitizer readily available at the front and the service was quick. Social distancing was maintained/tables were spaced apart well. The decor is so bright and playful. I love the aesthetics of this place! read more

Lots of seating and food choices. Salads are super fresh and desserts are yummy! For a lunch during work, you can't beat it. Wish there were more locations. read more

This place gives all the happy and healthy vibes. The space is bright and filled with plants, colors and all the things that make you feel good. Ingredients like good grains, vegetables, lean proteins, nuts, seeds, and roots will make you feel good on the inside and outside. I tried the avocado hummus, Mother Earth, and Teriyaki Shrimp & Avocado. The hummus was creamy. The pita bread arrived warm to our table. The shrimp was cooked perfectly in the teriyaki bowl. There was definitely Asian flavors going on and it wasn't bad. I like how Mother Earth had different flavor profiles for each ingredient. I thought both bowls were a little too salty and saucy. I think they are a wonderful addition to the Tysons area. They're also kid friendly with the kids menu and crayons to color. I wish the bathrooms were more kid friendly. read more

Good place for a light lunch. Nothing special, but it was filling and convenient. Prices are good too. I had the glow bowl with tofu and it was tasty, but someone else at my table ordered chicken and I was told it was quite dry. Either way, the ambience is super cute and for the price/taste I was very satisfied. read more

My SIL gave us a gift card to Fox Restaurant Concepts awhile back, so we finally decided to give it a try. (They also used to own North Italia and True Food Kitchen, not sure why FRC places are being purchased left and right.) Ordered two Mother Earth bowls with salmon and chicken to-go. Also got a bottle of wine. I picked out the rosé from Natura wines, also organic. Loved the combination of the different ingredients, and definitely tasted healthy and fresh. A bit on the pricey end, but you pay for quality here. Waited about 15 min for both orders. Definitely seemed busy on a Saturday night with many to go orders. Restaurant had good Covid related signage and sanitizer stations everywhere. All staff in the kitchen was wearing a mask, and seemed to be working hard to get all the orders completed! Food was neatly packed, and everything was seasoned great. May try the steak or shrimp next time. Only negative -- Parking was kind of annoying since you park inside the garage, hoping for a good spot by the elevator, and then have to take an elevator to get to the ground level. Also, don't forget to validate it at the restaurant. read more

This is by far my favorite place to grab food. Amazing bowls. The harmony of the different flavors in the Mother Earth Bowl is on point. So earthy and rich! I got chicken with mine. I mean hands down a perfectly hearty and well rounded dish. I've ordered on DoorDash from here about 4 times in 1 week. Love it! The olive oil lemon cupcake is delightful as well. read more

Flower Child - Mother Earth Bowl - New American Near Me - McLean, Virginia

My new favorite place to grab lunch.. maybe even dinner. I placed an order at Flower Child yesterday without any big expectations and was so pleasantly surprised. Everyone that ordered their lunch with me shared that their meals were also SO good. I got the Steak Entree with brussel sprouts and the gluten-free mac & cheese. The mac & cheese doesn't LOOK that appetizing, but I was not disappointed. I will admit that the dishes are on the pricier side, but so is everywhere else in the Boro area. I will for sure be back regularly. I will note that when I walked into the store yesterday, the cashiers sort of just stared when I said hi, but the food makes up for the lack of friendliness. read more

I'm not a vegetarian but I will come to Flower Child when I'm feeling something hip and healthy. You'll need to park in one of the garages at the Boro to come here but they validate parking. I've gotten the Mother Earth Bowl w/ Tofu and the Turkey Zucchini Lasagna. Both were surprisingly good and had a lot of flavor! I highly recommend the Mother Earth Bowl, it's no wonder that's one of their bestsellers. The food here is definitely on the pricier end, even if you choose to go protein-less but you'll definitely still get full without feeling bad about what you ate. read more

New hip restaurant in Tyson's new complex, the Boro. Flower Child is a healthy option for everyone-even those with stricter dietary restrictions. The restaurant is spacious and hipster with writing on the windows and greenery on the inside. Each table is decorated with a cute flowered vase. Ordering and dining in will get you an order number where the employees will bring you your food. Bf got the Flying Avacado and we split the Crushed Avacado Toast. I got an entree of chicken with two sides: the Spicy Eggplant and the Yuzu Brussel Sprouts. The toast was yummy with perfectly boiled eggs. So picturesque! I wasn't the biggest fan of the chicken but the sides were delicious. The Spicy Eggplant had a good amount of kick to it without being spicy and the Brussel Sprouts were very crispy. With many new options popping up, Flower Child will be a great option for a casual lunch with coworkers and friends. It's got great healthy options. While there, I was eyeing the salads that looked like they gave HEARTY portions! Definitely going to get a salad next time. Those looked like they were packed with goodies. read more

This place used to be amazing! It's started out West and the quality and customer service were great. Now...it's so so. Portions are OK, meat quality is just so so at best. It's unfortunate because when this place 1st opened the idea and concept of the restaurant was incredible. Might just be this location! read more

Stopped by here with a friend for lunch one day because we wanted something healthy. Flower Child is definitely that spot for those who are looking for their daily dose of veggies and more. I got the Mother Earth bowl with salmon added and their rose lemonade. The food came out relatively quickly and had great flavor. I couldn't taste much rose in the lemonade, but it was a tasty lemonade overall. I just wish the portion sizes were a bit larger for the price point. The dish came in a decent-sized bowl, but it was pretty shallow so you get less than you expect. read more

Got a chance to check out Flower Child's soft opening event on Sat, 10/12, as well as a peek of The Boro. The place itself has a pretty clean feel to it - modern, open air layout with a chill/casual vibe. Overall, all the appetizers, entrees (Mother Earth bowl) & drinks seemed pretty healthy, except for my dish (Steak+Cauliflower+Butternut Squash), which was a little too much on the salty side. We also tried the Avocado Hummus (very good) and an IPA on tap. Next time I'll have to try the Kombucha on tap. Pretty cool event and definitely a nice addition to Tysons. read more

I am absolutely in love with the Mother Earth bowl. From the perfectly sweet miso glazed sweet potatoes to the crunchy ancient grains and the acidic greens, this bowl is well balanced and my go to choice when I want something healthy for lunch. Service is sooo nice and the folks at Flower Child are always willing to swap greens if there's a component in the bowl you don't love. I personally can't stand arugula, and have been able to swap it for broccoli or spinach! read more

Hello delicious! Welcome to Tyson's! I've loved Flower Child since visiting a location in Santa Monica and am so pumped for this spot! My husband and I tried the simple hummus to share (holy light fluffy airy hummus!!) and each got separate entrees. I chose the cauliflower, tofu, and Brussels. My favorite piece was definitely the Brussels but everything blended together in the bowl so nicely! We shared a gluten free chocolate chip cookie for dessert also and it was so tasty. Our service was great and every one was incredibly friendly and helpful. This place is bright, colorful, and feel good from the moment you step inside. read more

Tastiness: I have tried many dishes from their menu and each one was tasty. It does not matter if you choose vegan, vegetarian, or meat dishes - everything is tasting delicious. It's all so good, that I have a take-out menu in my house, for inspiration on new dishes. Their food is consistently creative and comforting. Presentation: Because this is a fast-casual-healthy type place, presentation is not front of mind. Ambiance: Although this is a chain, each location I've visited has its own decor and personality, all pleasing to the eye, with an Anthropologie-meets-RH while staying casual vibe. Cleanliness/COVID prevention: This is a clean restaurant, but mask wearing was inconsistent (with some staff wearing masks and other not). The patio area could have been cleaned up faster and more thoroughly. Price: Inexpensive. Overall: If I'm in the mood for predictably tasty and heathy food in a casual yet cute place, I'll choose Flower Child anytime. read more

Cyndy's Bottom Line: A delicious healthy option *Public garage next door *Delivery through Door Dash *No reservations required, self service *No table service, order and seat yourself *Large dining area *Self service beverage area with water cups for filtered water *Open daily 1100-9pm *Catering available Flower Child is a Fox Restaurant Concepts (FRC) and a new addition to The Boro in Tyson's and to the Virginia-DC area. Everything on the Flower Child menu is made from scratch, using farm-fresh ingredients. There are vegan, paleo, and gluten-free options. This is what I ate: Bowls: *MOTHER EARTH bowl with ancient grains, sweet potato, portobello mushroom, avocado, cucumber, pistachio pesto, charred onion, leafy greens, red pepper miso vinaigrette, hemp seed. Enjoyed this bowl because it was so flavorful and an interesting mix of items in one bowl. The ancient grains provide a nice texture works well with the pistachio pesto. The avocado is sprinkled with seeds which is a good accompaniment. The cucumber adds a freshness. The arugula lightly dressed. The sweet potato very yummy. Portobello mushroom with charred onion delicious. Lots of robust flavors working together. Protein Entree: *Sustainable Salmon - highly salted, well seasoned and cooked perfectly. A definite return. read more

Just wanted to add new photos! We got the teriyaki shrimp bowl this time and though the sauce wasn't as good as the glow noodles, the rice was filling (so I didn't feel hungry like the last time!). The heirloom tomatoes and watermelon side was super interesting! I probably wouldn't get it again but tasty for a one time only try! The asparagus slaw was again...interesting. Tasty but not a taste I crave. read more

We rolled the dice after looking at an eclectic menu full of great flavors. We were not disappointed. We each got a wrap and I got a local beer on draft. The Rebel wrap is like a gourmet steak and cheese with juicy slices steak and a great tasting sauce. She got a shawarma wrap that tasted as good as any shawarma either of us has ever had. Give this place a try, you won't be disappointed. read more
