    Chicken Yakisoba Noodles
    John K.

    Placed a to go order for their chicken yakisoba noodles. Excellent blend of sauces and seasoning. I like the blend of noodles with a protein, chicken, and veggies. Taste is excellent and it's very filling. The veggies were still a little crunchy and not over cooked. Definitely would order this again.

    Chicken Entree and Yummy Sides
    Jane C.

    As you walk into the restaurant, you are transported into a serene, greenhouse setting. You automatically feel relaxed. You belong here, you're meant to be here. The service was quick and easy. We ordered the Chicken Entree with Broccoli, Brussel Sprouts and Sweet Potato Fries. Everything was very flavorful and delicious. Highly recommend this place in Austin!

    Glow Bowl
    Mira D.

    Met up with some girlfriends and got the Glow Bowl at Flower Child and I loved it! The sweet potato noodles were perfectly cooked, and the combo of shiitake mushrooms, snap peas, cilantro, and mint made it super fresh and flavorful. The sunflower sauce tied everything together and was honestly one of the best parts of the dish. Parking kind of sucks, but that's expected since it's downtown. Other than that, it's such a great spot with a chill vibe and tons of options for different diets like vegan, vegetarian, gluten free, and dairy free. Definitely a go to if you're looking for something healthy but still really satisfying!

    Years ago, long before I moved here and I was only visiting Austin for the first time, Flower Child stole my heart. After a long day of walking around downtown in the hot sun, it was a cool, clean oasis with a refreshingly healthy menu, placing vegetables front and center. Though I don't visit this location as much now that I live here and have to worry about parking, or the lack thereof, I'm still every bit as obsessed with the Mother Earth Bowl, Glow Bowl, Chopped Vegetable Salad, and Cauliflower Risotto. It's made with dietary restrictions in mind, offering clearly labeled vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free, options alongside omnivorous items. You can even get the full nutritional low-down on their website if you're concerned about macros. Between the flavors, quality of ingredients, and even pricing, I've never walked out of here feeling bad about my choices.

    Turkey & Avocado Cobb. Roasted Sweet Potato Fries. Lemon Olive Oil Cake
    Courtney A.

    Cute spot! We stumbled on this place while we were on a wait for an hour at another place and decided to come here instead. Perfect timing. We just missed the rush. So many GF options. We got the turkey Cobb salad and the sweet potato fries. As well as the olive oil lemon cake to go. Everything was so so good. Staff was really friendly and attentive. We'll be coming back soon.

    Healthy lunch option in downtown Austin. Busy during the lunch rush. Fast service though.

    Flying avocado wrap

    I was staying at the Westin on business, and walked here for lunch. Delicious, healthy food, fast and friendly service and a nice outdoor seating area.

    Mediterranean Chicken Kabob, Roasted Sweet Potato Fries
    Jasmine M.

    I definitely wish that I would have gotten a bigger portion, especially for the price, but overall it was a good experience and the food was yummy.

    Flower Child is a treat when visiting a state with them as a Washingtonian without one. I absolutely love the fresh bowls, teas and amazing ambiance of the Flower Child chain. I've tried many different bowls and done for dine in and takeaway and either way, the quality of the food is excellent and the service is amazing. 10/10 recommend blending 1/2 green tea and 1/2 lemonade - delicious!

    Salmon Smashed Gold Potato

    The ambiance of this particular location is very nice and cozy. Parking wasn't too much of a hassle however we came here during the middle of a work week for dinner after the afternoon rush. My boyfriend got the salmon with smashed potatoes and Mac and cheese. The pasta is always so rich and we would not have ever been able to guess it was gluten free. The salmon was a bit on the drier and smaller side. Overall, the prices at this establishment are on the higher side so we would've loved to see a bigger portion size. I got the chicken which was flavorful when you added their hot sauces. I also got the sweet potato fries. It came on a separate plate so there were a lot and overall it was pretty tasty. It had good seasoning and paired nicely with the side of dill ranch they give you!

    Ginger Miso Crunch with shrimp
    Claudia G.

    The Flower Child is conveniently located downtown in the center of many places to visit. The place is very spacious and a ton of great food options. You place your order and they bring it to you. The food was tasty and fresh. The person taking the order was very friendly. She let me sample the kombucha as well. I enjoyed the kombucha on tap, a salad with shrimp, and the hummus. This is a great place if you want to easily grab a meal and want something healthy. The place has a great calm ambiance as well. Would def recommend!

    Flower child makes it easy to give them a 5 out of 5. They opened about 1 year after I had moved to Austin from upstate NY. For those like me, this will come as a pleasant surprise - their menu really does not change! The best bowl, in my opinion, is the Mother Earth and adding the Salmon. How the restaurant is setup, it reminds you of a Parisian cafe with a large exterior seating area and a wide open area inside with 2" thick marble tabletops! They offer to-go orders during the weeknights, this is a great go-to as they offer family meals through their smart phone app. You will be greeted and help with really polite staff who will be asking if need anything along your stay with them! Really recommend! You'll be in for a treat - I'm merely visiting from New York and it is my must see restaurant when I come.

    Mother Earth bowl with tofu
    Mag T.

    The Kung pow cauliflower is delicious and a must order. The mother earth bowl was great I added tofu and it was seasoned perfectly. Only negative was the avocado in the bowl was on the brown side.

    There's only street parking available. There's parking lots/decks nearby but I don't think they validate.

The ambience is fantastic, and honestly, there's not a bad seat in the house. We started with the crab meat artichoke dip -- delicious, and it comes with fresh chips plus crispy celery and carrots on the side, a nice touch instead of the usual chips-only route. Jordan just got tagged for dinner service. He didn't skip a beat with great service.

    RE: Business owner information General Manager…read more Business Manager Jul 17, 2026 Hi Paul, Thank you for your detailed feedback. While we're glad you joined us, I'm sorry to hear your breakfast experience didn't meet expectations. We'll be reviewing your comments with our culinary team to improve consistency. We appreciate you giving us a try and hope to provide a better experience in the future. Warm regards, Wes Brown It's great to receive a response from the business manager regarding our experience at their restaurant, but all four us thoroughly enjoyed our breakfast. We had absolutely no complaints regarding our dining experience. Caroline is affiliated with the Marriott Element and Aloft hotels and that, I believe, where the affiliation ends. I try to avoid hotel eateries but I've had great dining experiences at hotels like the JW Marriott in Austin. We, four, stopped by on a Sunday AM for breakfast and we had a great time. They do have brunch cocktails available and their bloody Mary's were deemed excellent with just the right amount of spice. My bloody Maria was on point and we all got our Sunday Funday started. Breakfast was wonderful. Our eggs arrived cooked perfectly. The pepper bacon and real potato sides were off the charts delicious. They also offer a few TexMex breakfast options and Plus one was raving about her Huevos Rancheros plate. Service was excellent even though they became busy our server was very attentive. Pro tip: Sat and Sun AMs if you arrive early you can easily score a table.

We came by on a Saturday afternoon when it was starting to get busy -- fortunately we were able to snag a spot indoors. In terms of seating, the tables are probably best for smaller group sizes (2-4). Overall, the indoor space is bright, clean and refreshing. Pork Belly Banh Mi ($14.95, 4.5/5) - I'm a fan of ciabatta in general -- bonus since this one came panini pressed! - Good amount of pork belly - Cucumbers, daikon carrots, and jalapeño add a nice crunch/ kick to balance out the more creamy aioli sauces - Flavors were on point, just wish portion sizes were a bit larger All in all, definitely check out Mendocino Farms if you're in a sandwich mood! The ingredients are very fresh, and the prices are affordable. Looking forward to visiting again and trying other items on their menu.

Mendocino Farms always has such good, fresh, light sandwich options, so I was excited to try this one out. Parking is plentiful, and it's in a newer lot right next to a Snooze. Both feel like popular, high end fast casual chains popping up throughout Austin. Chimichurri Steak & Bacon Sandwich ($15.99, 6.5/10) - Portion size felt on the small side, after finishing the whole sandwich I was still hungry and could've easily eaten another half to feel full - Steak was relatively tender, thin sliced so it was easy to bite through - Chimichurri sauce was a bit more acidic than I'm used to, and the pickled veggies leaned acidic too, could've used something creamy to balance it all out - Bread was really good, and overall sandwich quality still felt high - Would've been nice to get a bag of chips included, given you're paying $15.99 for just the sandwich Overall, Mendocino Farms still brings high quality ingredients and good food. I've had another sandwich here in the past that I really enjoyed, so next time I'll probably switch it up and try something different. Good sign that the quality holds up across their different menu items.

The restaurant itself is decorated so nice, it's picture perfect. I also really appreciate a restaurant committed to having options that are seed oil free, from local farms and also having options without refined sugar. Miranda was our server and she was so kind and attentive. She made sure we had a great experience and was a pleasure to talk to. To eat I ordered the classic breakfast and to drink I had the vanilla maca. I didn't love the vanilla maca, and I only blame myself for that. I have never had maca so I didn't know what to expect but the drink basically tasted like a chocolate protein shake. Which isn't bad but I wanted like more of a latte so that was on me. My meal however? Loved it. Everything was so flavorful and hit the spot exactly with what I wanted. I also really appreciate a salad with breakfast since this helps lower your glucose spike and so when a restaurant offers this I know they know true wellness!!! My girlfriends both ordered the avocado toast and loved it. One ordered the cherry vanilla limeade and enjoyed it as well, but as an avid cherry hater I didn't try it...but if you like cherry she recommends it!

It was painfully boring. We had our 6-year-old, who is head of the Picky Eaters Society, so we ordered bread with butter. This 6-year-old, who eats bread on the daily, took one bite and wouldn't eat any more. We even get gluten-free bread regularly, and he eats it. The bread was fine, but don't expect flavor. By some miracle, they even made butter tasteless. I considered calling the Vatican to see if this was some holy, divine miracle, but my wife suggested maybe the main course would be better. We settled on the pesto pasta with chicken added for an additional fee. The pasta was good. Great texture, good flavor, and the combination of ingredients was good, but it's nothing original. It's pesto pasta. It's a classic. I appreciate the pomegranate seeds on the guacamole because it's original, it's clever, and it's different. We also ordered a special soda drink for our son, and it had a small black bug on top. I had them take it back and replace it. I kind of expected a "Listen, we apologize for the bug. Here's half off dinner," or something, but nothing. Service was fine, and it's a decent atmosphere. If you're looking for a place to sit and talk it's a great place, but if you want food or a drink go somewhere else.
