Review Flower Child - Addison

This was my first time at Flower Child, and it was mostly a great experience. Nice decor, friendly employees and my food was delicious. The only thing that kept that fifth star off was the portion of salmon I received. I ordered the protein with two sides, and the salmon was so small that it must have been three ounces. Considering the price, it wasn’t worth it - even though the Brussels sprouts and broccoli were excellent. Otherwise everything was really good.

When you have a unique dietary lifestyle, going to eat at a restaurant can be challenging. I usually call the restaurants ahead of time to see if they are able to accommodate my requests. With Flower Child, I never have to do that. They are really aware of their customers different dietary needs. My most recent visit was pretty epic. This particular evening, I wanted something warm. I didn’t want a modified salad or anything like that. So when I spoke to the cashier taking my order, Harrison, about wanting kale stir fried, he asked me what I wanted in it and I said salt, pepper, onions and garlic. He then told me to wait while he gets the chef. Chef Henry came out and asked me about my dietary needs. He agreed to make me a dish that wasn’t on the menu and charged as if it was a forbidden bowl. The chef told me that he loves making unique creations and enjoys request such as mine. It feels great to know I can go to a restaurant and eat well while at the same time eat something healthy and satisfying. It’s also great to know that making something customized to my diet isn’t an inconvenience. This dish has zucchini, bok Choy, celery, carrots, dinosaur kale, onions seasoned with salt, pepper and lemon place on a bed of arugula topped with a whole lemon and salt seasoned avocado dusted with coconut flakes. Absolutely delicious!!🥗

Good alternative if you're tired of fast food. It is a little bit pricey, but they are the only one who serves this kind of food in this area. I ordered tofu with sweet potatoes and brussel sprouts, they're good but not outstanding. Very small portion of tofu. Service was excellent. My biggest complaint is they don't enforce social distancing during Covid. Lunch break time is packed with crowds waiting in line.

The food was "fine" this time. Sweet potatoes were undercooked and served room temp. The chicken was well prepared and tasty but was served about 2 degrees above room temperature. The shrimp and avocado bowl was markedly better than the chicken entree. We've been here many other times when the food received "excellent" marks; they just didn't have it tonight. The hostess/cashier was certainly pleasant but had no control over her seating chart. We were twice assigned tables already occupied by other diners. The biggest disappointment was the kitchen staff's disregard for mask or face covering protocol. The line cook had a gaiter type mask over his head and ears, but not covering his nose and mouth. Another kitchen staff member had her mask under her chin. A third wore a "genie" type mask tied closely under her eyes, but flapping loosely over her nose and mouth. We're semi-regulars at this Flower Child location but it may be a while before we return.

Good quality food, great service, but some items can be on the pricey side. Plenty of options for carnivores, vegans, vegetarians, etc. Make sure you check the nutritional info on their web site before you go. It’s certainly healthier than a lot of other options out there, but if you’re watching things like sodium, etc., pay close attention. My *favorite* item on the menu is the Thai Dye Wrap ($9.95). Spicy tofu, avocado, shredded carrots, radish, basil, cilantro, some snap peas, and smothered in some sort of Thai chili paste - this might be what the tofu is cooked in. The tofu is cooked ok, a little soft but not too bad. The wrap itself is very soft, light and fresh. The wrap is whole wheat with flaxseed and I think chia seed. My second favorite menu item is the Glow Bowl ($9.95). By default, it comes with no protein items, but you can add any protein item to it for an extra charge. This is another spicy dish that I appreciate. It’s mainly spicy sweet potato noodles - that may sound weird to some, but they are mighty tasty, and the combination of sweetness and spicy is a PERFECT balance. The ONLY thing I am disappointed in with this dish is the lack of Shiitake mushrooms. I love my mushrooms, but these seem to be chopped up pretty small, so it’s hard to see them or even taste them. They can also skimp on the jalapenos at times. Vegan Massaman Curry - plenty of jalapenos, for a good kick. It includes HUGE chunks of roasted sweet potatoes, spaghetti squash, and toasted cashews. The toasted cashews give it great texture and a decent crunch. You can also choose to build your own combo - you choose your protein and then select two sides. Steak ($14.25) is cooked medium. The chicken ($12.95) is cooked and seasoned VERY well. It’s white meat, juicy, and very tasty. *They are taking very good precautions during COVID times, but there can still be a line out the door at lunchtime during the work week. *Use their app or their website to order ahead for pickup. You pay online, and then wander inside and find your order on a shelf with your name on it - and then RUN!!! *Yes, they have wine and beer (you’re welcome for that tip - I should have added that first).

Absolutely Amazing! Great food and the servers were awesome. Even when we switched tables without asking. Tremendous location! Definitely check it out and try the sweet corn quinoa.

Always a great experience. Service is amazing, people are friendly and food never let's you down.

Love this place. Great for a veggie head and they always have nice employees
