I'm really not a big chain restaurant person. I really liked the menu so I rolled the dice and decided to meet up with a friend here, for lunch. My first impression was that it was a bright and clean establishment. The staff members at the serving area were alert and attentive, each one of the 3 staff that we interacted with was smiling, accommodating, and polite. THAT was a huge positive for me. I got the spicy lamb with sweet potato it was fresh and flavorful. My friend enjoyed the Steak and Harissa. I don't drink soda so it was another huge positive to see their wide array of still drinks, and a soda fountain with New England, local carbonated options by Maine Root. My friend had the Tangerine Aleppo, I had the Cucumber Mint Lime. Very refreshing! Although Cava is fast food, it's not fatty, greasy, or processed food. I recommend you give this casual, Mediterranean spot a shot!

Customer Service was above par. Food was excellent. Hard to find healthy choices most of the time when out and about. But CAVA is definitely a go to for delicious and healthy food. Service was excellent. Taso was the person who took care of myself and my friend. He was welcoming, patient and friendly. Would definitely come back to this specific location again!

Cava Restaurant is an absolute gem! From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with a warm and inviting atmosphere. The staff is incredibly friendly and attentive, making sure every need is met. The menu offers a fantastic selection of Mediterranean-inspired dishes, and everything I tried was bursting with flavor. The highlight was definitely the lamb bowl, which was perfectly seasoned and paired beautifully with fresh toppings. Don't skip the tzatziki – it’s out of this world! Overall, Cava is a must-visit for anyone looking to enjoy delicious food and exceptional service. I can't wait to return!

Love the food there and the staffs are very nice, especially Paola. Whenever I walk in she already knows what I'm going to order. She's even gotten to know what my son orders when he UberEats, now that's going above and beyond. Definitely good food and service.

First time trying CAVA and I was impressed with the food. I did the create your own bowl with brown rice, chicken shawarma, and various toppings. Everything was fresh and delicious. Also tried the pineapple apple mint drink which was a nice touch. Service was fast, it's a Chipotle-style setup where you go down the line and pick what you want. I walked in without pre-ordering and was in and out quickly. It wasn't busy which probably helped. Only downside is the price. As much as I enjoyed the food, it's a bit expensive for what you get. Great for an occasional treat but not something I'd do regularly. Would recommend giving it a try though, the quality is there.
