Was just here again in November 2018, so here's my Santa Monica Flower Child review update. This place is generally busy at meal times. It's counter service style. Line up, order what you'd like, and take a number. The PLUS side is that there are vegan options clearly labeled. We've tried the forbidden rice bowl (Asian sauce, rice a bit hard), a combo plate of yuzu brussel sprouts + Indian cauliflower + butternut cubes (all with good flavors), and the day's soup which as tomato and beans (good). Most recently we tried the vegan ramen, and that was quite tasty and hot - would get it again. The MINUS side is that the food handling is all mixed between the meatstuff and the vegan stuff, ie. same kitchen utensils and staff hands. The kitchen is open, so you can see for yourself. If you don't mind about that, then this is an fair option for a meal. The prices are moderate for Santa Monica. Updated from previous review on 2016-11-06
