Chicken Chilled Sesame Noodles Kung Pow Cauliflower
Katie C.

In town to visit CU and wanted a healthy quick lunch! The space is open and well appointed - lots of tables and cute ambiance! The menu is definitely different and everything was excellent quality! This wouldn't be a place to bring picky eaters but we enjoyed it!

Ginger crunch
Elizabeth H.

Finally!!! A solid salad that is tasty and not a million dollars in the barren food wasteland of Boulder. But seriously, the ginger crunch salad was amazing, with added chicken, and really healthy too! Thank you!!!

Bruce D.

Excellent food. Build your own entree. Service was quick , Food delivered to your table, per a number flag ure given. cleanup was efficient and un rushed. Dining area is clean and modern.

Mediterranean Chicken Kabob
Alexa G.

A great healthy lunch spot! They have a great menu of different options - salads, bowls, wraps, etc. And a variety of drinks too. Their lemonade was really good and not overly sweet. I got the Mediterranean chicken kabob bowl and it was super yummy! You order at the counter and then they bring the food out to you. And the inside was super cute. They also have a covered patio which would be nice to sit outside when it's warm. I would definitely come back!

Chopped Vegetable Salad
Alex L.

Clean and healthy feeling food! They have a variety of bowls and salads. Tried the chopped vegetable salad which was tasty, definitely a very gingery dressing. It was exactly what I needed.

While visiting Boulder my wife and I were happy to find Flower Child. Of course we only have so much time while visiting and want to try so many places but Flower Child was so good we had to have it twice in such a short time. The food was so fresh and flavorful and the abundance of gluten free options really was fantastic. And of course that chocolate chip cookie really hit the spot. Especially after letting it warm up a little in the sun! We will gladly come back next time we are in town. The staff was very friendly and helpful and attentive to keeping things flowing smoothly. There is ample indoor seating and a nice outdoor space as well.

Salad with grilled chicken  nice sangria and lemonade also
Bill M.

Very excellent place for a healthy meal whereby you don't feel like...well... crap after you eat there. Very tasty salads and a very good fruit side dish Go there... Again!

Thai Chicken & Shrimp Meatballs
Cheryl H.

What a cute place! They have a very healthy fresh menu with interesting items and combinations. The Thai chicken meatballs were incredible, the dish looks small but it was so filling. They have a variety of drink options to choose from including rose petal lemonade and tea. The service was fast and the place was very busy, very popular.

A solid option if you are wanting casual fast healthy food. Order at the counter and build your own meal or choose from one of the preset options. We've gotten food to go and eaten inside many times. My family loves this place - good or vegetarian options. I personally find it a little bit pretentious, like they are trying too hard to be "Boulder".

Avocado Caesar w/ chicken
Hannah M.

Ate lunch here for the first time today, and it was so delicious! Portions are generous and the quality of the food is amazing--definitely worth the price. We got the ginger miso crunch with salmon (cooked medium rare, as requested) and the avocado caesar with chicken. I couldn't believe how generous they were with the avocado! I don't think I've ever been given this much at any restaurant...like ever. Please don't change that, because that would be such a disappointment. Also, props to flower child for actually cooking our salmon to medium rare--you'd be surprised how many restaurants, even in Hawaii, mess that one up and ignore the customer's request. Loved the ambiance and the option to sit indoors or outdoors. Staff was nice as well, which can make or break a dining experience. I'd definitely return and would consider doing take out in the future. Highly recommend.

Miso crunch salad with steak and steak entree with cauliflower risotto and maple butternut squash
Sophie W.

First off the food was amazing! Everything was cooked perfectly and tasted delicious, the steak was imo perfectly done and the portions were large, I loved the risotto and squash as well! The server and cashiers were all very nice and their service was fast. I also saw a customer complaining to the staff about the food and they handled it extremely well when he was being rude. The place also had amazing ambiance it was well lit, clean and the decoration were beautiful!

Slit Brussels Sprout Saad and Chicken Enchilada Bowl (split so there was another two plates for my wife).

Stopped by Flower Child in Boulder, was looking for a place to be outside with our dog on the patio, as well as some Gluten free food options. They didn't disappoint, my wife and I split the Brussels Sprout and Kale Salad along with the Chicken Enchilada Bowl(she is not GF and loved both). Both were amazing and they split the plates for us. We will come back when in town. Highly recommend.

Kale Salad side
Tracie L.

This place was great. It felt really inviting. The atmosphere was great. The food was delicious. The staff was good, not great, but you don't interact with them much, so that's fine. I had a bowl and added chicken, it was really good. My husband had a wrap and liked it. I also got a kale side salad and he got a GF Mac & cheese salad. We liked all of it. The sweet potatoes were amazing!! The lemon avocado (I think that's what it was) dressing was delicious. I also got a cashew Choc chip cookie. It was good. I'd definitely return and would like one closer to home.

Looooved our brunch at The Kitchen! We walked in with no reservation at around 11:30 and were able…read moreto snag a table right away. The space is cozy and bright. I loved the big chandeliers and brick wall. Our server, Skylar, was fantastic. She was personable, welcoming, and enhanced the entire dining experience. My friend and I started with the churro donuts to share. These were the perfect sweet treat (because who can have brunch without something sweet for the table?) It comes with a dulce de leche and a coffee anglaise that was so delicious. For my main I went with the fireside eggs. This was exceptional! Flavourful shakshuka with perfectly poached eggs, avocado and feta served alongside naan bread. This meal was comforting and delicious without being overly filling. I can't recommend The Kitchen enough! If I'm ever back in Boulder I will definitely be back. I would love to try the lunch or dinner menu!

What started as a promising dinner turned into a disappointing experience, especially considering…read morethe restaurant's premium pricing. We were seated promptly for our 7:45 p.m. reservation. The service was excellent, and the drinks and appetizers (carrots, beets, arancini, and gnocchi) were all very good and arrived surprisingly quickly. At 8:30 p.m., we were told that our ribeye, ordered medium rare, had been overcooked to medium well. The manager apologized and said they would prepare another one. She also offered complimentary garlic fries ( very tasty) and desserts, which we appreciated. At 9:08 p.m., the replacement steak finally arrived, but this time it was rare, possibly even blue rare. We sent it back again. At 9:15 p.m., it returned mostly medium rare, although several pieces were still noticeably undercooked. To make matters worse, the butter sauce was so overpowering that it completely masked the flavor of the beef. By this point, we were tired and declined the offer of free dessert. And more frustratingly, despite two failed attempts to properly cook their signature entree, the $155 steak, and a lengthy delay, no adjustment was offered. I politely asked if something could be done, and they removed the carrots from our bill - comping an order of carrots after mishandling a $155 steak twice seemed like a pretty weak gesture. I've dined at many excellent restaurants in my hometown of Chicago, New York, Las Vegas, and internationally. Mistakes happen, but what separates a great restaurant from an average one is how it handles them. When your prices are 10-15% higher than comparable restaurants, expectations are understandably higher as well. Would I return? Possibly. The service was excellent, and the appetizers were good enough to warrant another visit. But I would definitely think twice before ordering another steak. Overall, a disappointing experience where both the kitchen's execution and management's response should have been considerably better.

After a lovely day walking around Boulder, the Husband searched through Yelp and found Brasserie…read moreTen Ten as a nice option just a couple blocks off Pearle Street. We walked in without reservations on a Saturday evening and was lucky to have the option of dining inside or out. We were seated in the corner, which was fine except for the flies that would get trapped against the window and buzz right around us. There weren't really any other tables in the middle of the restaurant available, so we sucked it up. During the day, it was very brightly lit. But once the sun goes down, it doesn't become very dark. We were given menus by the hostess, but there was a slight delay with water service and what not. Eventually, our waiter did come by to talk a bit more about the menu. (I should note that the table was only set for a party of two and we were a party of four. So, it wasn't until our first dish arrived did they notice that we were missing tableware and plates for the rest of our party.) We mentioned that we'll be sharing a bunch of things, so this is what we ordered: The food came quickly and we did have to make room immediately. I do wish they would have paced it a bit better though. * Beet Salad $15 - They were kind enough to split this in two plates right off the get go. Since it's called a Beet Salad, I did expect a bit more beets than what was given. 3/5 * Roasted Bone Marrow $16 - This was a gorgeous presentation with three bone marrow halves topped with a little red trout roe. The accompanying buttered crusty bread was just wonderful. Although not everyone enjoyed the fig vinegar, I loved this dish! 5/5 * Fried Anchovy Stuffed Olives $12 - My mistake was seeing "fried anchovy", so I was surprised when the olives showed up. It was a lot of salt on salt. It was just okay for us and was the last thing on our table. 2/5 * House Pâté $18 - Another wow dish! The house pate was delicious! The Little Gal pretty much planted that in front of her so she could just focus on that. We did need to order more bread to enjoy all of the pate though. 5/5 * Tartare De Filet Mignon $20 - This was another favorite dish of ours and we ended up ordering another! Loved the red trout roe and crostini that came with it. 5/5 * Moules La Marinire 1 lb $27 - The mussels were so well cleaned and the sauce had so much flavor. It also came with a crusty piece of bread to soak up all that amazing sauce. 5/5 * Peach Cobbler - Before we ordered, I did ask if they had a dessert menu as I wanted to gauge how much food to get based on what desserts were available. Our waiter mentioned they had only two peach cobblers available and could put one on hold for us if we wanted it. And he did rattle off a few of their regular dessert items too. Since this peach cobbler seemed so exclusive, we did ask for that to be on hold for us. When it did arrive, I was a bit disappointed. It wasn't sweet enough for my preference. I'm not sure if it was because the peaches weren't sweet or there was a lack of sugar in the cobbler portion. 3/5 * Beignets $12 (to go) - As we were leaving, I asked one of the floor managers if they typically do something for birthdays and he confirmed that they do. He then asked if they had missed something, so I reluctantly told him that they did. The Husband did mention to the two waiters that we were celebrating a birthday, so he had told the staff. I thought that maybe because the peach cobbler took a bit longer, maybe it was forgotten. He apologized profusely and offered to send us with an order of beignets. We were pretty full and had a drive back, but he insisted and said it would only take a moment or so. So we agreed and I waited for it. The order came with 10 little freshly fried doughnut holes, lemon curd, raspberry gelee, and strawberries. We headed to the car and I enjoyed a few there. They were just okay though, nothing really special. 3/5 Overall, there were some really great highs and a couple of lows. I appreciated how the manager tried to make up for the error and did ask where we were seating, so I assume he could address it with the staff. We REALLY loved certain dishes and would return again for those. I would still rate this highly because we did have a generally good experience. 4.5 stars

Brasserie Ten Ten is a French inspired, cute restaurant, great for brunch. I sat at the bar and…read morethe bartenders and waiters were quite friendly. I started with the anhois frites olives (fried anchovy stuffed olive) and espresso. The croque monsieur (ham, gruyere, and a fried egg on top) was excellent. I met a few locals who gave me hiking trail recommendations (see my review of Anne U White Trail). Boulder is a unique town (dark blue) - people are friendly, the buses are full, and UC Boulder is a great campus. 4/5, 8/10.
