Flower Child

Loved the experience at flower child! The food feels very clean light and healthy. I got the chicken with Mac n cheese side and broccoli. Personally I thought the chicken was slightly dry but not bad. My boyfriend realllyyyy liked the Mac and cheese it’s light but creamy. We also got the chicken yakisoba noodles which was really good I loved the flavoring and seasoning! There’s lots of veggies too which was great. I really liked the flowers at the tables and the decorations and overall atmosphere was just right. Really liked it will definitely come back to visit!!

Many items are made from scratch, and the menu supports different dietary restrictions, including gluten-free, vegetarian, and vegan options, all clearly labeled. My go-to dishes are the Mother Earth Bowl with salmon and the chopped vegetable salad. However, the quality isn’t what it used to be—I’ve noticed small details slipping, like vegetables being chopped larger and subtle changes in flavor. The gluten-free, vegan brownies were good but a bit too sweet for my taste. Still, it’s my favorite spot before or after a movie at Look Theater, and I always feel good after eating here.

Excellent tasting food. Atmosphere was relaxed, modern, colorful and comfortable. Would eat here again and would highly recommend Flower Child to vegans or vegetarians, as they have more than a handful of suitable options

The food was fresh and delicious, and I was pleased with the variety of bowls available. The customer service was excellent, and I appreciated the friendly and attentive staff. The interior design of the restaurant was also very nice and bright, which created a pleasant and inviting atmosphere. Overall, I had a wonderful experience and left feeling happy and satisfied.

Tasty, fresh salad. Ordered the Ginger Miso Crunch with chicken. Also grabbed a chocolate chip cashew cookie. Salad was delicious 😋.

Great place to grab a bite. Food portions are on the smaller side for what you pay for compared to other places in the area. I ordered the Mediterranean Chicken Kabob bowl (without summer squash).

Whenever I get my nails done at Tysons nail Lounge, I always pass by this restaurant, but never checked it out until recently, and I am glad I did because the food was amazing, and I loved the outside patio, specially in the summer months. The ambience is really BoHo chic and relaxed. With all the vegan options, it was hard to choose but I went for the sautéed cauliflower and red chili glazed sweet potato with the fruit salad on the side. Good weather and good food paired with a sangria just made it a great afternoon to relax and unwind after a long week at work.

I understand Avocado is expensive right now but I'm sure I could've got a little more for $2.50 extra? Otherwise, food is good, meat is tender and all ingredients feel fresh to taste.

I was intrigued by their website where it says they cater to all diets including vegan, vegetarian, paleo, keto, and gluten free, so I had to stop by. I ordered the chicken enchilada bowl. I was so pleased with my meal. It was absolutely delicious, very flavorful and the presentation was so lovely. I greeted upon entry, the young lady that took my order was kind and helpful, the restaurant itself is so cute, it really gives high vibes, I love the decor. I will be back.

I recently took my daughter out for lunch at the adorable Flower Child and it was such a delightful experience! Everything we tried was incredibly tasty, and the menu offers a great variety of fresh, wholesome options. The ambiance is simply charming, making it the perfect spot for a fun lunch date. The friendly staff added to the welcoming atmosphere, and we especially loved the outdoor seating, which made our meal even more enjoyable. It's a wonderful place to relax and savor good food with loved ones. Highly recommend checking it out!

Absolutely outstanding! Came here on a whim because I had an appointment in the McLean area and got hungry for some lunch, so I decided to try out this place. Love it here - they have so many delicious hearty options that are also healthy. I decided to get the chicken yakisoba noodles and it was filling, nicely seasoned, and nutritious with the ample vegetables included in this dish. There is a parking garage right next door, so that helps with the headache of looking for parking. Check them out! Great place to go for a quick sit down bite.

Whenever I have to go into work I grab this for lunch and it makes my day! Super fresh ingredients, with salads bowls wraps and protein + side entrees. Ordering online is the best especially during lunch because it gets busy! Very colorful and light atmosphere with lots of seating.

Food is great, cute atmosphere. Food took a little long for a pick up order but service was friendly

Delicious healthy dishes bursting with flavor, I really enjoy some of the new dishes on the menu like Mushroom Bolognese. Mushroom Bolognese (5/5) - The new vegetarian menu item hits with spot with zucchini noodles , chick peas, mushrooms and tofu "sausage" in marinara sauce. While I'm usually not a fan of zucchini noodles, surprisingly I really enjoyed the dish and everything blended well together and healthy too! Glow Bowl (5/5) - Mild spicy kick and hands-down my favorite dish with sweet potato noodles swimming in a creamy coconut curry sauce and packed with veggies - snap peas, mushrooms, bok choy, zucchini, onion, crunchy sunflower seeds, topped with cilantro. The roasted Tofu is a nice protein add-on that absorbs all the flavors in the bowl. Sweet potato noodles are prepared well and can be tricky to cook as I have feebly attempted! Love the fun healthy stir-fry dish as all the ingredients and flavors blend well together. Forbidden Rice (3/5) - Super spicy stirfry with a heavy dose of grains. While I love grains, they overpower the dish and would opt for a lighter pour of the red chili hoisin sauce. This dish doesn't fare well for delivery with saucy grains and soggy veggies. Mother Earth (4/5) - Healthy salad on a large bed of grains packed with veggies - avocado, arugula, cucumber, portobello mushroom, sweet potato. The dish is also overwhelmed by grains and falls short on flavor. There isn't enough pesto and spicy red pepper miso vinaigrette It's a bit bland and not my favorite delivery option. There's not enough space in the narrow deep-set to-go containers to mix around the toppings. The grains remain on the bottom and can't be easily blended into the bowl. Wider harvest bowl style containers would fair better. Sweet Potato Fries (4/5) - While they were tasty and enjoyed the small portion, I wish they were crispier. The stellar customer service goes above and beyond during the pandemic (shout-out to Mark, the manager and Riley, one of the staff members) and they made a custom delivery and gave me gift cards to comp for an incorrect order. Great service! Flower Child's got a variety of delicious dishes and a truly wonderful and dedicated staff! Love coming back!

Lovely outdoor lunch with friends @ Flower Child - very friendly service and our salads were fresh and delicious. The inside is also lively and inviting. The menu is impressive and I clearly need to return to try their numerous other offerings!

Love me some flower child! I like the casual dining setting and the food is always great. They switch up the menu based on the season so there's something new to try. Service has been good, both when ordering at the restaurant and for ordering takeout. This place gets busy during lunch time so keep that in mind. Parking is validated for the parking garage along the street.

Beautiful interior, friendly service but omg the food was so so salty, particularly the Brussel sprouts.

Been several times to this location Flower Child. Always consistently good food that is healthy. It tastes clean but still tastes good, which is often a hard combination to hit! The quantity of food can vary greatly depending on what you order. Example - one of their seasonals, the Korean hot pot beef comes in the largest bowl ever with the food in the way bottom. At least fill it with more broth if you don't want to fill with food - it looked so sad. Parking in the garage can be validated.

Pleasant, bright, spacious, and pretty place for a light lunch or supper...I've always loved their salads, and my kale salad with apples and grapefruit (minus the Brussels sprouts, added the steak) did not disappoint...the dressing was good and not overwhelming and the steak though a little dry was still tasty. Service was excellent-- friendly, helpful and prompt....this is a wonderful dining option if looking for something light and healthy....

Not going to lie, I honestly didn't think this place would be worth the hype. I'm also very picky about buying "healthy food" I can make at home. This spot though! SO GOOD and I'll deff be going back! I really enjoyed everything I ordered. They have such great clean and filling meals. I ordered the Mother Earth bowl with chicken and a side of Mac & Cheese. My gf ordered the Italian chopped with steak. I'll give my food a 10/10. I really liked how all the flavors went together perfectly! I was full for hours after eating all that food. The portions were generous It was such a great lunch date hangout spot. Even work spot for meetings. It's a casual ambiance. The service was good. You only really interact with staff at the register but she was super helpful about the menu options considering we've never been.

This place was gorgeous on the inside with a huge menu that all looked delicious! It was great option for my friend who was gluten free. The pricing for the size of food was incredible. I like that you had everything from salads, entrees with choices of sides, and then just regular entrees. Inside you had a nice option of sauces off to the side. The habanero sauce really added a great spice to my brussel sprouts and salmon. I love having affordable and healthy option right by my house! Can't wait to come back.

Nice service and tasty food. It's got a cool ambiance. Menu items are fresh. They've got alcoholic beverages if you want. Was nice for a laidback lunch. Friendly staff.

I'm pleasantly surprised and in awe of this place. I have never tried vegetarian food so this was a first for me. I got Avocado Toast, The " Forbidden Rice " bowl with added tofu and Lemonade. First off, the avocado toast was a surprise to me. It had Black Sesame and white cheddar on it along with a heavy spread of avocado all around. It was really good but would I get it again for the price? Not really. I do recommend trying it at least once. The " Forbidden " Rice was a bit interesting first looking into it. It had black pearl, red japonica, snap pea, bok choy, broccoli, carrots, onions, toasted sesame, and red chili hoisin. There's a lot of ingredients in this dish but it was really good. The tofu was something I added in because I could have went with an actual protein so I challenged my self to eat something a vegetarian would eat. It was really delicious! The lemonade was also pretty good, I think it was lavender lemonade and it wasn't too sweet either. It was refreshing! The place is pretty aesthetic; lots of ample room for a good photoshoot really. It was quiet when I came in, but I think the storm occurring at that time was also really bad. I can say that I'd love to try more options here. It's good healthy food, for a good price!

Took my boyfriend out for something to eat and pick Flower Child as the place to go for our date! The Food was amazing, service was quick and extremely helpful, and the environment was warm!

Healthy food, great portion, great display of food, okay price, nice little place for a walk around there too. The only thing i don't like about this place is parking. There's a parking accross the street you'll havr to pay for or you can park in the garage or on thr street! This place have always been one of my american healthy food place with great vibe! I love that they have vegetarian options as well and their food are well seasoned. Perfect amount of food where its not too much and not too little. Quinoa corn are my fav for sides. The salmon, steaks are also my fav.

Modern, cheery restaurant serving healthy dishes! I ordered the apricot summer salad, sweet potato fries, and avocado toast. The salad was a good size and I enjoyed the dressing and combination of fruits and veggies. They easily accommodated my request to remove the cucumbers. The avocado toast was decent--I liked that there was Parmesan on it because I'm a cheese fan! I just wish the bread was something more flavorful. The fries themselves were also good, but portion was a bit small. The sweet potato fries were served with ranch dressing. This location also has an enticing drinks menu. I didn't order any beverages, but they offer enticing sangrias and mixed drinks. There's easy outdoor seating, and the restaurant is right in the Boro, which is an amazing area to walk around on a warm summer day.

Another great lunch at Flower Child! Love the decor, the atmosphere, the service and especially the food. This time I had the shrimp, roasted broccoli and brown rice. Amazing flavors!!

I've been interested in trying Flower Child for a while, since I'm always catching movies at the nearby ICON Theatres (https://www.yelp.com/biz/showplace-icon-theatre-and-kitchen-at-the-boro-mclean-3?osq=icon+theatre) and was intrigued by the restaurant's self-professed message of: "Healthy Food for a Happy World." Flower Child is one of the properties under the Fox Restaurant Concepts umbrella (https://www.foxrc.com/restaurants), and was founded by long time industry veteran Sam Fox, who famously partnered with Dr. Andrew Weil to launch True Food Kitchen back in 2008. According to their website, their mission is: "At Flower Child, we make every last bite from scratch, using fresh ingredients from close to home and serving healthy food that takes you to a happy place." There are many things to like about Flower Child. The décor is definitely keeping in line with the overall ambiance of the upscale Boro at Tysons town center, where Flower Child is located. There is a nice outdoor patio with for al fresco dining, and the interior is modern with the seemingly requisite poured concrete flooring, vaulted ceilings, and open concept dining room. Flower Child is what I would term a "hybrid fast casual," service model. Walk in and then make a selection from the large but not overwhelming menu and the counter staff will hand you a holder with your order number. When your food is ready, one of the friendly team members delivers the food to your table. There are also self-service water/beverage, utensils, and extensive condiment stations. Bonus that there are also take-out containers if you have leftovers at the end of your meal. While there are many vegan/vegetarian options, I opted to try the chicken yaki soba noodles. Chicken thighs are grilled and then wok seared with vegetables, sesame garlic sauce, and finally topped with roasted cashews. Did it taste like an "authentic" dish that I would get in a Japanese restaurant? No...but that's not the point of the dish. I would say that Flower Child's version was less "heavy" probably because they used less oil in the preparation, and I appreciated that the dish was very colorful due to the inclusion of all of the veggies. And I also liked that it wasn't overly salty, which is typical of this dish in other places; I did add a bit of sriracha sauce but that's mainly cause I enjoy some spice with my food. Overall, I like the overall vibe of Flower Child and can see myself dining here more often.

Went here to use a gift card I got and I had never heard of this place before! Nice size menu, lots of options from bowls, to salads to sandwiches. The inside of the restaurant is really cute though I was just grabbing food to go. I ordered at the counter and the food was available in minutes. It was a bit on the pricier side, I got a wrap, a side, and a drink and it was $26 and change while my gift card was for $25. I would compare it to a healthier, nicer, more unique Panera? Overall food was great and I would come again!

If you're looking for healthy food, with great portion sizes and this is your place. The service here is fast, fresh, and friendly. The sweet potato noodles were cooked to perfection. Cooked it slightly crunchy still, The sear on the steak was perfection and for the first time, I had the cantaloupe and cucumber Thai salad. The sauce was incredibly sweet and spicy. The salmon dish was grilled with a bit of a crunch, that soft on the inside. But the macaroni and cheese was the star of the watch the Mac n cheese. The sauce that enveloped the noodles was rich, smooth, and tasty. We would return again..

Amazing food! Great option for healthy food Everything taste and looks high quality and the ambiance is so cute

Great lunch spot. Wraps, salads - with a sleek mid century vibe. Totally recommend as a fresh healthy alternative to other options at the boro

The avocado Caesar salad (add chicken) is everything I want for girl dinner. The dressing is super flavorful and I didn't need much to top off the salad. Be sure to get their signature rose petal lemonade as well!

Staff helpful and friendly and so many good eats. Favs include: Brussel & Kale Salad Hummus / plain and avocado versions Rose petal Lemonade Avocado Caesar Ginger Miso Crunch GF Mac n Cheese Sangria Protein on salads: chicken and tofu both great! Haven't tried others YET.

This is my favorite lunch spot in the Tysons area. Fresh and delicious salads and more!

Took me over a year to try this place but I was pleasantly surprised how good the food was, especially the chicken enchilada dish, It was super tasty and the portion was just right. The Mother Earth with Salmon is also good. They had two sangria options, my go to was the strawberry banana option. Cool looking spot and outdoor seating. The staff is friendly and helpful.

I felt like I was eating Earth served by Mother Theresa! It's so fresh, tasty, and healthy. What else can you ask for? Their sweet potatoe fries are also a good add on if you want to be a fatty :)

Funny story: I came here a couple years ago during Lent because I knew I'd find vegan options. I loved it! Thought okay if I enjoyed the tofu, I know the food can only get better from here. I kept asking my husband to go, but he associated it with vegan and never wanted to go. Finally, we have a vegan friend and we decided to take her here. Guess what, my husband and I have gone twice in one week now! So glad he finally understands why I liked this spot. They have lots of options; bowls, wraps, salads, entrees + sides. Something for everyone! I always try to get something new. First time I got the tofu with the Brussel sprouts and the sweet potatoes. The sweet potatoes are DELICIOUS!!! Second time, I ordered the steak and the risotto. The risotto was amazing, texture and flavor were on point. What a good deal! $15 for steak and 2 sides??? Amazing. Third time, I got the chicken yaki noodles. So good and flavorful! So yeah, I really like this spot! I love the decor, the vibe is nice, it's warm and bright. The staff are helpful and friendly. Check them out if you're in the Boro!

The chicken yakisoba noodles are good for me, but are weighed down by too much soy sauce - dialing it back a bit, maybe half as much, would make the dish much better. My wife definitely likes the Flying Avocado, though, and the kombucha bar.

If you want to be on the healthier side when it comes to food, this is the best place to start. They have so many healthy options, I did not know what to choose. It was my first time checking out the spot and the service was amazing. The ambience was nice and peaceful. I ordered Mother Earth on the menu which came with sweet potatoes, cucumber and broccoli, avocado, leafy greens, asian grains, and hemp seed. I will be back.

Super cute fast-casual restaurant! Everything I had was delicious. I am looking forward to trying more items off the menu! Chicken: Well seasoned but the texture was on the drier side. Gluten Free Mac and Cheese: So good - my favorite item! The mac and cheese didn't feel too heavy and had a great Parmesan taste. Red Chile Glazed Sweet Potato: Loved the Asian inspired flavors. The crunchy, watery bok choy provided nice contrast to the other sides in the entree. However, some pieces of the sweet potatoes were hard and undercooked. Rose Petal Lemonade: Water with a hint of lemon and rose flavors.

This place has so many great food options everyone should try. The miso crunch salad was delicious, I got it with shrimp but I would recommend salmon, chicken or steak next time! It was so delicious that I plan on coming again to get it soon.

I love this place, kids love this place. Do you understand how hard it is to make kids ask to eat salad? Well, if it is from here, kids do. Their kids menu is extremely good and we love it. I also like they have kombucha on tap.

The place is great. Their location is very convenient, next to a grocery store. Food - Amazing. The steak with mac and cheese was absolutely delicious. Service - Good Parking - There are parking lots nearby and some streetside parking as well. Overall, this place is great.

Healthy, simple, and tasty is the best way to describe Flower Child. I ordered the Steak Plate with Mac and Cheese and Smashed Potatoes for delivery after coming home from the gym. It hit the spot, as the meat was tender, the Mac and cheese was cheesy, and the smashed potatoes were good. The only issue I had was I felt that the food needed more seasoning or some type of sauce. Overall, a good spot for healthy food that I would recommend to anyone, but the food needs a little extra kick to it.

Great meal! I had steak as my entree with a side of mashed potatoes and brussel sprouts. I didn't love the brussel sprout sauce but everything else was excellent. The interior of the restaurant was also really flattering.

Vegan Friendly: YES! Finally, an amazing vegan-friendly place that's affordable and tastes great. Can't wait to go back especially since its located in The Boro, the surrounding area is a fun vibe:) Exterior and Interior: Very trendy and felt like I was in California! Sitting in the restaurant I felt so hip and is a great place to have lunch and casual dinner with friends. The seats were so comfortable, the décor was 10/10 and the aesthetic was top tier. Food Breakdown: · Mother Earth Bowl (5/5): The menu had a great selection however based on the ingredients this bowl looked appetizing and for only $9.95 you can't go wrong! Overall, it was pretty filling, tasted amazing + it was VEGAN. They truly understand how to elevate a dish but still make it vegan. The only thing I recommend is that it needs more protein so please add Tofu (Thai Flavored) to make more of a balanced meal. · Vegan Dark Chocolate Pudding (5/5): This was a last-minute purchase, but I saw it on a small board, and the fact it was vegan got me interested. Boy, am I glad I tried it, honestly the best pudding I have ever had! It was so creamy and the nuts in there enhanced the taste profile. Can't wait to try it again! Portion Size: Great for the price and comes with a lot of different things to justify the portion size. The Vegan Pudding was also a good size but man it was so good they should increase the size. Price: Great! I expected this place to have a lot higher prices like True Food Kitchen and similar places, but man bless this place for having decent prices. But they do upcharge for Tofu but still a solid price. Service: Great! Everyone was very nice and our food came out in a reasonable amount of time Would I go Back: YES! The question is not if I will go back but when. Overall Thoughts: I heard about this place from a friend and really had expectations to match True Food Kitchen but it surpassed all my expectations and for the price, it's a place I will be going back to again. I highly recommend getting the bowls and for sure the Pudding. This place has everything needed for a great restaurant. Great places don't just have good food, they excel in all aspects from service, décor, menu options, seating, and price. This is a top-tier place and easily 5 stars, especially for its vegan options.

My son and I went to Flower Child for the first time today for brunch. He got the Flying Avocado Wrap, and I got the Forbidden Rice Bowl with Tofu. We were both very happy with our food, and I plan to be a regular since I live nearby. I love it when healthy food is tasty too!

Kid tofu portion is so ugly. For $9 tofu Small 4 tiny pieces and burnt. Don't order it!!!

Great healthy food options and very delicious!!! The service was nice and friendly. Inside was super cute and had a nice ambience. I had a great time!

I've only been to the Foggy Bottom location, so I was pleasantly surprised when my friend wanted to check out Flower Child @ The Boro for dinner today. The interior is nice and clean with good amount of seating. I wasn't really in the mood to try something new, so I ended up getting the same entree + 2 sides as last time. The food came out within 10 minutes. CHICKEN PLATE + 2 SIDES - 13.95 I didn't really pay attention to the food too much today - maybe I was just hungry and just shoveled food down while catching up with my friend, not sure. The plate of food is not too big to begin with, and I definitely could eat more than what was given. Overall, food was tasty and healthy compared to other options at the Boro. The chicken breast was seasoned well with lots of herbs and good amount of salt - not too dry and went down easily. The roasted broccoli was a good choice for vegetables. Some of it was more grilled/charred than I would like and some of the florets were hard to chew. Despite the texture, the seasoning was good, something citrusy, garlicky, and crunchy. I remember the smashed gold potatoes being super smooth and buttery last time, but today, it was drier than I remembered and not much garlic or buttery flavor. It was just OK, but good source of carbs if you don't want to be completely healthy. Overall, pretty expensive after tax + tip. I wish the portion sizes were bigger for what I had paid for, though. Flower Child's food is tasty, but be prepared to drop some money.

Great service, healthy delicious and great selection in food choices. The lemon olive oil cake is absolutely divine!! Cute ambiance as well. Definitely recommend

Flower child is good, not great. The food can be a little more on the bland side. They do have a good sized menu to pick from. The service is pretty good, you order from the counter and someone delivers your food to your table. It has indoor and outdoor seating. Overall, you won't get anything bad at flower child but you also won't get anything super memorable.

Food was good I got the mushroom bolognese felt healthy. Only complaint was the restaurant was a little noisy

Omg! I will be back! Very cute place! I got the Yaki noodles and they were so flavorful and with very fresh ingredients! Didn't need to add anything to this and was blown away! I would suggest the noodles and this place to anyone! My friend also got the mother bowl and she said it was great. The service was good, didn't go above and beyond but it was okay for dine in.

Delicious! My bowl was perfect, great service! Healthy option. I highly recommend this place

TL; DR version: Interesting & healthy fare in a busy, trendy atmosphere. The combo works quite well for the working crowd in the Tysons Corner area. Disclaimer: as is my wont when traveling, I'm shouting this place out off of a single visit. Your mileage may vary. Quality: I chose the Forbidden Rice bowl because: a) I love the distinct flavor and texture of black pearl rice, & b) it's a pain to cook correctly at home. This place nails it, with a good blend of umami, sweet, and a tiny bit of spice (by my standard, anyway). The dish is definitely a modern spin on a typical rice bowl, but even the details are correct. Flavor, texture, presentation, and method all work very well together. Five stars. Service: this is an updated, fast-casual approach to the high-volume lunch hour. You order at the counter, pay, and wait for your food. There's little to evaluate other than speed and efficiency, but both are done well. I was rather surprised how quickly my dish arrived after ordering. +1 for the table service to clean up after the meal. Four stars. Cleanliness: My table was clean, the beverage area was clean, the dishes were clean, and the restroom was clean. There's nothing to complain about, even given heavy foot traffic. Note for those who care (I don't): restrooms are gender-neutral. Five stars. Value: Any place that uses organic food with quality ingredients in an expensive area like Northern Virginia is unlikely to wow you with their low prices, and Flower Child is no different. I suspect that they're doing just fine, and I paid around $20 for my lunch and drank only water. That's just above the going rate. Three stars for being on average. Ambience: There is a lot going on in here. The bathrooms are Victorian yard sale; the tables & seating are decidedly modern; and the walls are filled with the kind of positive vibe paintings and slogans that you'd expect. It's not obtrusive, though it is loud both visually and aurally. I found it a nice shot of energy with my lunch. Four stars. Bottom line: if you're a fan of the Modern Market atmosphere & fare, you'll like this very much. Plenty of vegetarian/vegan options; plenty of quality proteins if you're an omnivore. A four-star average makes this a good choice in the busy Tysons area.
