Flower Child — Restaurant in Gilbert

Took some out-of-state friends here, and they absolutely loved it, raving about how we always know the interesting, quality places to eat. I had the broccoli entree for the first time--with beef: tender, perfectly cooked slices of meat with absolutely delicious, al dente broccoli. The macaroni and cheese side was nice, but not to die for. My vegan husband had the Mother Earth bowl--it's his regular choice. Friends had The Rebel wrap and Chicken Enchiladas. Popular time on Saturday night, we waited in a line, where we were plied with little cookie bits and kept informed on status by a charming employee. Only negative is the white chairs, which can be quite uncomfortable for non-skinny people. I'm a size 16 and always make sure to get a black chair. Male guest has never been large at all, and he was definitely "snugged" in a white one. **That was a while back. Tonight we went with two more newbies to the restaurant. They're local but had never been, and they both enjoyed it. My husband loved being able to have a varied vegan meal, as usual. I tried a small draft for a change from my usual water--so daring! It was interesting in a good way--I usually would just have had a Stella, if anything. **2/25/2024: I'm so disappointed. The visit started well with a helpful and competent young woman taking our order and making helpful suggestions, except that one suggestion for change was necessitated by them not having sweet potatoes available. This is a basic ingredient for what my husband would have ordered, and it was 5:30 at night!? Then our dishes arrived: sweet potato fries that were overcooked, dry, and seemed to have been sitting around for hours--seriously. My pieces of broccoli, the main ingredient in my entree aside from an okay piece of salmon, were dry and literally burnt. One of our friends got lukewarm enchilada; the other one lucked out and got a salad that he liked very much. Our table server was attentive and very pleasant. We don't plan to return to a place that we had formerly...

This was my first time at the Flower Child restaurant. It was a Saturday evening around 7:00 p.m. there was definitely a lie outside and plenty of seating on the inside. This restaurant was recommended by our family members who like to eat like we do. They had lots of options that were healthy. You can choose from salad, soup wrap. At this restaurant, I noticed that you place your order and pay for it first, hence the line outside. They give you a table number to place on the table. They do have a designated area for pickup orders and doordash. They have menus available as you wait outside when there's a line which we did. The restaurant looked really nice on the inside. It's a very relaxing contemporary environment. I was relieved that they did have some wines available as well as beer to go with your meal. They had teas as well. I would recommend this place if you like to eat healthy food. I ordered a black bean for falafel wrap which came with a side salad that was green. I enjoyed my rep. My other family members ordered a chicken wrap, steak with mac and cheese, and an entree which was consistiyng of salmon, cauliflower rice, and broccoli. Overall, we all liked our meals. The servers and the staff were very nice. There is a seating area outside the restaurant with nice lights. They do have a bathroom as well as water. If you do not want to drink non-alcoholic or alcoholic drinks. There is parking outside, however, depending on the time it might be limited because this restaurant was near a bunch of restaurants as well as stores. We did have to park a little far but at least it was...

So disappointed I thought flower child would have high standards when it comes to their food. However, today Friday March 25th 2022 I had these worst experience ever. I order a well done steak plate with roasted broccoli and sweet potatoes now I have order this for extract plate serveral time in the months of February. How for someone reason today they couldn’t seem to get it right I asked for well done steak since I normally don’t eat red meats well they gave me nothing but red meat with blood juices coming out I called to speak to a manger who assured me they would make it right I come back up there for them to only give me the exact same thing with blood coming out and red meat showing so they they make it a third time and guess what now the steak is over cooked almost take like pure fat only and the broccoli and sweet potatoes are iced cold. Not sure if they hired a new cook or what but I had no complaints prior to this day of events I never been so upset or annoyed I definitely will not be eating here again nor will recommend this place anymore too my social media nor to friend or family. The manger acted like she was cared but really this was truly ridiculous and Unacceptable. I literally had to take my food home and beat it up on the stove and I live 3 min away. I’ve had this plate i time prior and the steak was nice and juicy with no red or pink showing so I’m supper confused why I got steak that tasted like it was cooked and sat to the side and throw on the grill when ordered. I’m so upset.if they can’t cook well done steak correctly without losing the flavor or tenderness...
