Flower Child

A nice stop for quick + healthy lunch! They have new flavors of kombucha on tap that are quiet delicious. But most notably their list has a lot of vegan options that can be edited to include meat for any meat eaters in the group ! Quiet versatile. mellow positive vibes all through the restaurant. There is additional seating upstairs! Located right outside a parking garage that was about $2.00 for 2 hours. We enjoyed their salad with an added salmon and their noodles 🍜. Very fast service.

Wanted a fresh option for lunch in Santa Monica and tried Flower Child. Huge space indoors with 2 floors of seating and 3-4 tables outside. Counter service and an extensive menu to chose from! We had a glow bowl and avocado hummus with fresh veggies and pita. The avocado hummus was unique and I loved the array and fresh vegetables (all super fresh and a good crunch). I liked the varying flavors of the glow bowl, most especially the sweet potato! Some of the flavor pairings didn’t seem to go well together, though. I liked the bowl ingredients stand alone but not mixed together! Pricey but quality was definitely there.

We had a great experience at this restaurant! The food was both fresh and flavorful. The staff was so incredibly friendly! After taking photos of the adorable bohemian cheery decor I noticed the managers were learning about new menu items. I asked to take photos and they quickly encouraged me to. Then they offered a sample as well. We left on cloud 9- enjoying the food, hospitality and atmosphere!

If you want healthy and controlled portion size THIS IS THE PLACE. Love the ambience! Nice and bright with natural light. Lovely decor, very encouraging statement signs on the wall. Nice furniture. Food.. small, very small, portions. Mac and cheese-tasty. Brussels sprouts-tasty. Sweet potato pasta dish (that my nephew ordered) very good. I didn't care too much for my salad. It had a smokey flavor of some sort(even though I asked for no smoke almonds ) and way too much salad dressing for my liking. I ate it because I was hungry so it was tolerable. I added the salmon and I wish it would of been hotter (temperature) . As a matter of fact, all of our food was not as hot as we like. This is a two story establishment and we sat upstairs, where it is super roomy and nice. I will definitely go back.

BEST BEACH FOOD RESTAURANT EVER!! (As in looking good at the beach) Had lunch 3 of my 4 days on a trip to Santa Monica. The Skinny Cobb Salad was just perfectly joyful to eat for reasons you'd hear talked about on the Food channel, yet light enough for beach body maintenance. The atmosphere was subtly spirited with the perfect balance of hippieness and class. Plus, it is right BY the beach! Again, this is for sure my number 1 pick for beach food, and - not to be forgotten - a fun dining experience!😄💪🐠🐟🌻🌞🌊🏊🏄🍉🍍🍅

Incredible menu all freshly made. Met the owner who is super cool, as was our waitress. Best fish tacos in the universe!

I threw my sister a baby shower at Flower Child and Scott, the Assistant General Manager, was an absolute pleasure to work with. He was extremely accommodating, kind, professional, and worked with us to make the event so smooth. The staff was very friendly too. This place has a positive vibe. For a party of 20, we were able to use half the room upstairs for our private event. The food was delicious! Everyone kept raved about the appetizers! I would highly recommend having an event here.

Healthy meals, gluten free & vegan selections. Great ice tea & lemonade drink machines too. Upstairs is a quieter area to eat in. Even though you order at the counter, the very pleasant servers bring your food to your table, even upstairs.
