Awesome new spot! Have seen Flower Child in some other parts of the country and was so excited a STL location opened. Stopped in yesterday and got the chicken kebab bowl to go with one of their flavored teas and a chocolate chip cookie. The interior is bright and lovely and the people are wonderful. They have tons of indoor seating and a patio as well. You order at the front and grab a seat. Prices are fair but the portion for my bowl was smaller than I expected. Other than that, the flavors were fantastic and the food was super fresh. I will definitely be back to the other menu items! read more

I am the only person I know that feels this way, but this place is so overrated! It makes me giggle because it could be an SNL skit -- a place where fancy white ladies pretend to love their overpriced salads. Will I go back? Probably, because my mom and friends love it. The staff is always kind. Don't get me wrong, the decor is cute and the food isn't *bad,* it's just nothing special. If Whole Foods and Bread Co. had a baby, it'd be Flower Child. read more

I've been to Flower Child in St Louis and it was terrific, however this location was UN impressive in respect to food quality and service. The STL store has a waiting line because it is popular. This location needs to improve in all areas. I will try it again with fingers crossed it improves because the restaurant concept is good, they just need to work on execution. read more

I came here with a friend for lunch. It was absolutely delicious!! There are almost too many options on the menu. It was a hard decision to make. Honestly, I don't believe you could go wrong with anything. Come to the counter, order, given a number then seat yourself. The food was brought out quickly by friendly and upbeat staff. I had the Turkey and Avocado salad with chicken, and it was so fresh. The greens, the toppings, the dressing, the chicken. Everything was so goood. My friend raved about the steak for her entree. I would come back to Flower Child in a heartbeat. read more

Tried this chain restaurant for the first time. Very thoroughly impressed with the options and ability to customize your meal. Can be a little stressful with all the options. A very health choice for a meal but can be on the pricier side. read more

Came in for lunch with a friend on a Friday. I think we are still riding the new restaurant wave a bit so we had to wait in line ~10 min. We ordered separately but they put us on one table ticket. Staff seats you, to avoid any stress about getting a table. I thought both my dishes were delicious, and the portions were huge. I loved all the healthy options. Downside was our food came out pretty far apart. Also it is crazy loud in there! read more

Flower Child - Mother Earth, Flying Avocado - Salad Near Me - St. Louis, Missouri

Flower Child is still in its infancy at STL, but the team there certainly has their working process down. Very efficient process to place your order, grab your table & receive your meal. Gotta love the efficiency! They have pretty decor and a variety of seating options (although many seats are that sturdy wicker material). For dinner I ordered their queso (solidly good) for a shareapple table app & for my entree I had their shrimp, sweet potatoes & sticky Thai watermelon. I wasn't super impressed with the shrimp, but the sweet potatoes and watermelon was absolutely delicious. I will say the watermelon didn't have Thai flavor to me, more salty than anything. I don't expect to come for a return visit very soon, but would anticipate returning--especially to try more sides & possibly a dessert next time around. Overall, it seems to be a restaurant where you can expect it to be consistently good & ideal for a quick bite. read more

So thrilled to have this new casual and quick healthy option close to home. The renovated space is urban and fresh. During friends and family opening, there was a lot of excitement and welcoming staff. I had the Glow Bowl with chicken. The noodles were al dente and the chicken nice and tender. The sauce was flavorful with a slight kick. I enjoyed this and would get again! I also tried the gluten free chocolate chip cookie. Perfectly crunchy on the outside and chewy on the inside. Dangerously delicious I need a dozen for my freezer! I look forward to trying additional items from the menu! Thank you for a gracious and warm welcoming to the community. Nicely done! read more

We'd eaten at a Flower Child in Boulder last year and wanted to visit this STL location. Appreciate the clean, thoughtful, delicious menu - and efforts to be green. Great atmosphere, friendly staff, smart portions, good variety and price, even enjoyed a sangria and a cookie. Highly recommend! read more

Amazing staff. Had our meal delayed, staff noticed without us even asking, quickly corrected it and apologized sincerely with complementary deserts. Truly what food service should be these days. Keep it up staff! read more

All the rumors are true, this place is amazing and proves healthy and wholesome food doesn't have to taste bad! They are well staffed and even though the restaurant is often crowded, orders are prepared quickly. I had the Mother Earth Bowl and it was delicious but I'm not gonna lie, I had major order envy while watching the food be delivered to people around me who ordered different entrees and wished I had ordered more food, so I made myself a future meal choices list. read more

Went here for lunch with a friend. The space is super cute and has a nice outdoor area. The menu felt a little overwhelming as I wanted to try everything. I ordered the Mother Earth bowl and added chicken. I also ordered an iced tea. Food was good and they had a large selection of iced tea. Service was good. The cashier was helpful in narrowing down selections. Food came out pretty quick too. I will def hit this place up again. read more

We arrived at the restaurant with a little bit of a weight, but the line moved quickly, and we were quickly seated. It was a full house with lots of new customers. We ordered the chicken enchiladas and the Italian Chopped salad with chicken. While they accidentally rang up the wrong order, Zena was great and let us keep the chopped vegetable salad as we waited on the chicken enchiladas. Everything was super fresh! The chicken enchiladas was one of the best things I've ever eaten! So fresh, so good. Zena was so sweet and friendly and made up for the order mistake with a cookie and lemon olive oil muffin. Definitely cutting them a break as they were slammed busy but the food came out so fast. This location has ample parking and will do really well if the quality and speed keeps up. Although it's a chain, they have superb service that makes it feel like a mom/pop shop. Can't wait to try everything else on the menu. This location is going to read more

Over priced for poor flavor. Having to wait for a table number then order at front door is very difficult and kind of chaotic.

Have been here 5 times in the past few months and it is so delicious and consistent. The menu is full of healthy and diverse choices. They always have great specials- the one this week was a turkey Italian salad which was top notch. The food always comes out so fast and the workers are so nice and helpful. The atmosphere also is very bright and lovely. Also- don't sleep on the sangria! read more

Its a great spot for ensuring everyone can order something that fits their dietary preferences AND taste buds preferences. Love the kombucha on tap, and every bowl I've tried has been fresh and delicious. read more

Super delicious food! I love that you have so many healthy options and in and outdoor seating. The staff is very nice and accommodating. I will recommend to all my friends! read more

We first found Flower Child while vacationing in Colorado looking for fresh, healthy food. We ate there several times before coming home. We were thrilled when they opened a Frontenac location and eat there frequently. Their menu is so great and everything I have had is so good. Hopefully they'll open more St. Louis locations! read more

I found the food to be mediocre at best. The service was good and it was a cute environment but very overpriced for what you get.

I picked up a Curbside Order at Flower Child. I ordered on the app. I ordered a Ginger Miso Crunch Salad (carrot zoodles, zucchini, red pepper, cabbage, mint, cashew, sesame seed, Asian dressing) and I added salmon, an extra cup of vinaigrette, pita bread and a chocolate chip cookie. The order was ready when I got there and it was brought out quickly. I was looking forward to this meal. When I got home I noticed the amount of salad and the portion of salmon were both quite small. On closer inspection my salad was missing the zucchini, red pepper, mint, and cashew. That's 4 out of 8 ingredients...bummer! I tossed the salad and thank goodness I sprang for the extra 50¢ worth of vinaigrette. I would have been sad had I not because 1 cup wouldn't have come close to covering the salad. The vinaigrette was very tasty but the salad was sad and the salmon was drier than a desert. It was clearly precooked, then chilled. The "pita bread" tasted like a store bought tortilla. The cookie was fine. Healthy or not this was a sad and disappointing meal. From a clearly neutral position why bother going through the motions of having someone sign off on the order if they don't look at it? read more

Many great options, so good. Healthy options, with a nice patio. I will definitely return for lunch in the future

Food was divine! It was delicious and I watched the chefs prepare it fresh. The restaurant itself is very cute inside. We came at lunch and it was packed, so my only suggestion is to figure out a better process for seating people and how we order. We were told if we wanted to eat there we had to get out of line until we were assigned a table. Just a bit odd, won't stop me from coming back though! read more

A very welcome addition to the area ! Just the name Flower Child invokes images of fresh, healthy, clean, intimate pairings. The name does not disappoint! This newly opened restaurant in Frontenac Plaza greet you with fresh fruit infused water as you enter. Once inside, you may have to wait in a small line. When I was there this Saturday evening I probably had to wait 15 minutes, but as time went by there were more and more people lining up outside the door. I would recommend downloading the app and ordering your food online! Once at the counter, I inquired about their seasonal sangrias, and I was given a sample of each, which was really nice. I opted for the strawberry banana, but the spiced pear was equally good... It was a tossup, but in the end, the strawberry banana was slightly sweeter, which is what I was looking for with my meal. Having a beef and pork allergy, they were most helpful in going over everything with me and the nice thing is that being that they pride themselves on unhealthy eating, I felt very comfortable ordering. I opted for the black bean falafel and the sweet potato with bok choy. I want them to sweet potato fries originally, but they had just sold out. I was not disappointed with my choices at all, though. The sweet potatoes were incredible and the falafel was made to perfection. One of my friends ordered the Mediterranean chicken kebab. it had the freshest of fresh ingredients in it... Delicious. My other friend ordered Chicken Yakisoba Noodle! She also enjoyed her meal. I don't know how crowded it will be on the weekdays being a new restaurant, but it can't hurt to download the app. Once you are there, they will give you a number to put on your table and when your food is ready, they will bring it right to you. It is very nice inside and very casual so you can bring the whole family. Aside from being quite loud there is not one thing I would change from my first visit here. This will definitely be on my list when I am looking for a fresh healthy meal with items that my entire family can enjoy. This is one place I hope will stay around for a long time! read more

Flower Child restaurant is truly a welcome addition to the St. Louis dining scene, offering the healthy and delicious options that the city has been craving! The diverse menu features an impressive array of nutritious yet mouthwatering choices. I was immediately drawn to try a little bit of everything, eager to experience the full breadth of their menu. My family and I shared the Carolina BBQ Chicken Wrap, The Flying Avocado Turkey Wrap, the Ginger Miso Crunch Salad and the Parmesan Mac & Cheese. The Flying Avocado Turkey Wrap was my favorite, the creamy avocado hummus and lean protein provided a filling and nourishing option. Equally satisfying was the Parmesan Mac & Cheese, a rich and creamy dish that manages to satisfy without weighing you down. I am already eagerly anticipating my next visit to this exceptional establishment that has truly raised the bar for healthy, high-quality dining in St. Louis. read more

Although technically a national "chain" restaurant, there's nothing but fresh, local vibes here. I've been to a few locations of a Flower Child and they seem consistently upbeat, popular and well operated. The meals are delicious and well-presented with all the appearances of very-healthy-for-you which is good enough for me! I always leave thinking about what I want to order the next time. read more

The food is certainly overrated and most definitely overpriced. I think they get away with overcharging because of their location. The portions are small plate sizing and the food is pretty underwhelming. When ordering take out, it's always late and when ordering in, it takes way longer than usual. I get it, they're busy and there's nothing fast casual around that area. ((The star rating is more about the food and flavor than the timing of the meals)). It's pretty crowded there and the vibe is pretty affluent and white. They say the ingredients are locally sourced but like from where, ya know? I just always desperately need some salt, acid and some umami on everything I get. The meat dishes are pretty bland and the vegan/veggie ones lack some form of cohesion. Like it just feels like random ingredients in a bowl and there's nothing to tie it all together. Cute branding tho and the workers are cool. read more

Just picked up lunch for my wife and daughter. We ordered a Mother Earth bowl with chicken, two turkey wraps, and a side of sweet potato fries. The good: - the flavors were great on everything - the people were nice The bad: - the cost to portion ratio is out of whack (giant to go bowl less than half-filled for $18, a small bag of thin fries 2/3 filled for $6) - the wraps are open ended with shredded/diced veggies and turkey (food fell out expectedly) - the fries were mostly overcooked - might be the worst sweet potato fries I've had for that reason alone Good personalities and good flavors are a justifiable reason to give three stars, but there are better places in and around St. Louis with greater offerings and quality control. This was the low end of average that seems to get a premium because it sits next to Plaza Frontenac. read more

I tried to place an online order, but the website and app crashed the entire afternoon. Finally, got the order placed and scheduled for pickup two hours later. The food was 40 minutes late. They didn't bring it to the car, and we had to go inside, which was complete chaos. The staff inside were useless, with boxes and plates ready to go but moving at a sloth-like pace and in complete confusion. While the cooks were kicking out the food quickly, no one else matched their pace. We got home and, of course, were missing multiple items. Incorrect order aside, the food was mediocre - just a notch above BreadCo or Chipotle. The fact that a place like this draws a crowd demonstrates how starved St. Louis is for anything new, which is embarrassing for the region. One nice thing to say: I liked the ranch dressing. read more
