While I'm not vegan, I stopped by on a weekday for lunch with coworkers (some who are vegetarian…read morefor religious purposes). We chose this restaurant to accommodate them for once, as usually they accommodate us. I was impressed by the extensive menu. I've never been to a vegan restaurant before, but it had quite the breadth. I ordered the cheeseburger, comprised of a plant based patty, cheese, lettuce, tomato, red onion, pickles, and housemade mayo served on brioche bun with a choice of fries or side salad. As they ran out of regular fries, I opted for sweet potato fries. The portions were a lot smaller than I'd expect for the price. Especially since my meal was $20 and I didn't leave feeling full (when usually I'm someone who always has to take at least some food home). Also, I was charged an additional fee for the sweet potato fries upgrade despite the lack of availability of normal fries to accompany my $16 burger. Perhaps I'm griping on subjective matters such as entitlement to certain quantities of food at restaurants, but our server took our orders without writing anything down and messed up or forgot almost all of them. I asked for garlic aoli instead of mayo for my cheeseburger. My coworker asked for a cheeseburger but got a chicken fried steak. My other coworker asked for a cheeseburger without any vegetables but all of them were on his burger or on the side. Another 2 coworker's orders were almost messed up, but our server came back to double check. Usually I'm not someone who cares about service, but our waiter messed up almost all of our orders and didn't even try to write things down. It wasn't even busy at this time. Overall disappointed in my experience here vegan food or not. I see other reviews here raving about the food and breadth of the menu, but I was left unimpressed.

The evening began with a sense of quiet anticipation as I entered the marble-clad lobby of the JW…read moreMarriott Desert Ridge. Sunlight from the last traces of day caught the polished stone, and I followed its glow toward the sweeping Cinderella staircase. Descending each step felt like moving from grandeur into a secret world, until Kembara revealed itself--a serene, Asian-inspired enclave tucked beneath the resort. The transition from the bustling lobby to Kembara's intimate calm was immediate. At the host stand, the front desk team met us with warm smiles and easy conversation, their inviting manner making us feel less like visitors and more like guests arriving for a special occasion. The simple act of being welcomed so wholeheartedly set the stage for the evening. We were led to our table, where soft lighting cast a golden hue over the space. Almost at once, our server arrived, offering delicately scented towels to cleanse our hands. The subtle fragrance was a small but notable detail, signaling attention to the senses beyond taste. Our journey began with the Joy Luck cocktail. Presented in a low glass over a single, glistening ice cube, the drink was creamy with coconut milk, its aroma warm and tropical. The first sip was smooth, a gentle balance of spirit and sweetness that invited a slow, meditative start to the meal. Next came the sweet and spicy shrimp tempura. The dish arrived sizzling and fragrant, the crispy batter still whispering with heat. Each bite brought a satisfying crunch, quickly followed by a wave of sweet heat reminiscent of bang bang shrimp--but here, elevated, more refined, with a depth of flavor that lingered. For our mains, we ventured to the heartier side of the menu. The grilled New York strip arrived first, its charred edges releasing a smoky perfume, perfectly accompanied by tender baby bok choy with a subtle bitterness that balanced the steak's richness. Beside it, the pork belly noodles promised comfort and delivered with generosity--the noodles tangled with hearty, tender pork belly that surprised with its substance yet satisfied completely. As the evening drew to a close, dessert appeared like a whimsical encore: coffee donuts. The light-as-cloud beignets were tossed in flavored sugar, releasing a soft, sweet scent that mingled with the bold aroma of the Vietnamese coffee dip. The first bite cracked gently, then melted, the warm dough and coffee indulgence a perfect final note. Our server Colter was an excellent conductor on our delicious ride. His suggestions were both thoughtful and helpful.

Our server was informative, attentive, and incredibly fast, which made the evening even more enjoyable. The food was delicious, the atmosphere was great, and the hospitality was outstanding.

There were ancient grains: quinoa, farro, and barley, and roasted sweet potatoes, portobello mushrooms, avocado, cucumber and greens, and pesto and hemp seed topping. A side of grilled tofu made for a tasty protein accompaniment, I enjoyed the complimentary infused with citrus water which refreshed me as did looking at their cheery lemon decorated wall. Ordering was easy at the counter and pleasant staff explained everything I had a question about and delivered my bowl to the table with cheeriness. My only suggestion would be that a small piece of special bread should be part of a salad or soup if requested as that would round out the meal.

The sides used to fill the bowl, but now there was nearly an inch of empty space around each side serving on a small bowl of an entree order. For what I paid, it was pretty shocking. The customer service was incredibly uncomfortable. The cashier acted like I was bothering him just by ordering, and barely acknowledged me. I would have been happy to tip, but I'm not going to lie, it crossed my mind that maybe the tiny portions were punishment for not tipping which obviously shouldn't be the case, but that's how the interaction left me feeling. What made it even stranger was that when the restaurant was slow, all of the employees were huddled behind one register chatting amongst themselves. I stood there waiting while they finished their conversation, and when they finally helped me, there was barely a smile or any friendly interaction. As a customer, it felt like I was inconveniencing them by being there. I spent $25 for one plate and a drink and left hungry and in a bad mood. I've enjoyed Flower Child in the past, but between the significantly smaller portions and the poor customer service, I don't think I'll be back. Only giving two stars vs one because the food is amazing!!! Just not enough with a bad attitude. Hope it gets better.
