Greens and groans grilled chicken
Rannie S.

Got the greens and grains chicken and was healthy and delicious. It's was also fulfilling. The cucumber and mint drink was also refreshing! I'll be back here again to try more things in the menu!

Take out | Dinner | $10-20 I have purchased food from here on many occasions but tonight my food is ice cold. I purchased the lamb what a waste of $$. It was cold, The rice was cold not really sure what was going on, but the attendant seems very distracted with people coming to visit. I'm assuming they either workday or I used to work there. I only live about five minutes away and my food should not be this cold like it is cold to the touch like rice, cold lamb. This by far is probably the worst experience I've had with CAVA and I have been eating from this location for several years now I'm really disappointed. The lamb was fatty, I not sure it was even Lamb. I think I'm going to stay away for a while.

Decided try something different other than chiptole and I have not been back to chiptole since. The food is so good with a varitety of options that you can add to your bowl. The service is always great, they allow you to sample items that you are unsure about as well as put things on the side. The ambiance is a nice for a quick casual lunch gathering with 1-2 people.

I had a yummy dinner at CAVA. I got spinach and chicken with hummus. Tzatziki sauce was amazing! It was delicious! Everything was super fresh even though it was late in the evening. Staff is friendly. Place was clean. It was busy even in the at 9pm. This place is popular but line goes fast. It was a pleasant experience at CAVA!

Can never go wrong with Cava. Tired of the 4th of July BBQ so needed something different. I rarely actually sit down and eat in there but it's always a nice atmosphere. The people were friendly and had my order ready when I came in. I got the spicy lamb meatballs which are not spicy but still good. The garlic sauce is a must. Definitely brings everything together. The hot harissa chops are good. Wish they would bring back the ranch chips. Overall great good with great service.

Drink cooler
Stephanie S.

Good food, good service - that's always a good start! I popped in here the other night to grab a healthy meal. I got the Greek Salad with a few modifications. I needed some extra veggies so I added them, and the char was just enough. I also had tahini Caesar and Greek vinaigrette on the side since I had a little drive before I'd eat. I didn't want my salad to be soggy. I added the roasted eggplant dip to the hummus and tzatziki that accompany this dish. The salad was super tasty. I think the Newport News restaurant spoiled me though; I was looking for my pita bread :-( I didn't need the bread! They have plenty of tables and seating options. I like how the drink cooler is right when you walk in - smart marketing strategy. They even have still and sparkling water in aluminum bottles!

I have always loved Cava for its flavors and fresh ingredients. It's kind of like a Chipotle, but better. This is a Mediterranean style restaurant. Honestly, whatever you order is going to be delicious. A few of my favorite things are their homemade pita bread, any choice of meat/protein and their hummus! This location was very large and clean. Luckily when I went at 11AM on a Friday morning, there weren't many people so it was pretty quiet. The few people that were there quietly sat and did their thing. The staff was very patient when my group and I were making up our minds on what to order. The portions at this location are also great. And this location has many, many selections of their lemonades/drinks that took me a while to decide! I ended up going with the strawberry lemonade choice, but any drink you choose here is also going to be super fresh and delicious. This time I ordered half brown rice, half grains, chicken and vegetables for the protein (picking 2 was an extra charge), tomatoes, cucumbers, hummus, tzatziki, feta cheese, and the lemon chicken sauce. It ended up being $15.57 and then I noticed the drinks around the corner, so I paid an additional $3.36. It's a bit pricey, but for the quality of food and a treat once in a while I think it's worth it. I did not use the restroom because I was just passing through, but I have no doubt it would have been just as clean as everything else. If I'm ever in the area again, I'd definitely go back!

Greens and grains bowl with chicken
Angel E.

As soon as I walked in, I was greeted which is phenomenal for a busy place. The server asked me if I knew what I wanted or if I needed time. Great customer service because I didn't feel rushed to order something. I decided to do the build your own greens and grains bowl with chicken. I love the all of the hummuses but went with the traditional, harissa, and eggplant. The best part is that the toppings are unlimited. I basically got them all. I did get the dressings on the side. The harissa vinaigrette and the Caesar. This was my first time trying the caesar, I wasn't a fan. The flavor with the toppings all mixed in. Yum!!! I couldn't get enough. Back to the service, the water dispenser is broken, so the server helped me to get the water out which is great. She didn't want the water to splash on me which I appreciate. The tables were clean and I was able to find a spot to eat. They do have sanitizer dispensers. Overall, my food and service was great. I didn't feel bloated or anything after eating here. I would come back.

Great customer service. The restaurant was clean and they offer a lot of options. Bowls. Salads. Pitas. Pita chips. Desserts. Great lunch choice of the of the balsamic date chicken bowl. Very flavorful and fresh ingredients. Tried the pita chips, they were very delicious. Give this place a go if you're looking for Mediterranean options

Greens & Grain Bowl -- half Honey Harissa Chicken & Half Lamb Meatballs
Nancy H.

I have wanted to try CAVA for years, but have never lived close to one. That changed yesterday and I will most definitely become a regular. The best way to describe it is that it's very similar to Chipotle, but mediterranean food, which makes it 10x better. I got the Greens & Grain bowl with baby spinach and cauli rice. I added on basically all the toppings and did half honey harissa chicken & half lamb meatballs for my protein. Everything was insanely good!!

This location was busy, packed with teenagers having a hangout sesh which I thought was cute. There were also people coming in and out grabbing orders for take out. I ordered the Fajita Pita as a rice bowl as always at the other location and I also got a Strawberry Watermelon Pineapple Juice. It took a little minute to get my food just because it was busy which I didn't mind. My rice bowl tasted the same as the other location which gave me much satisfaction and is a testament of the consistency across locations. The juice was refreshing and well balanced. Overall I enjoyed my pickup and I am happy to know there's another location I can go to if I need and want to. I am craving it as I write this review!!!

I ordered the Greek pita turned into a rice bowl. A few things... 1) Where was the seasoning? 2)…read moreWTF is this dressing? It sure as shit isn't tzatziki sauce. More like a bland, watered down cucumber dressing. 3) The Cucumbers: I cannot tell you how long I looked for the chunks of cucumbers to then be disappointed that they were cut in julienne style. They tasted like the lettuce, blah I did also get the watermelon/pineapple/__ juice and that was BANGING!

Yum! Impressed with…read morethis place. The chicken was very good; thick and juicy high quality chicken breasts. We easily found a nice table outside and ordered quickly - my husband chose a Chicken Slider, I had the Nashville Hot Chicken sandwich and we ordered my baby girl a kid's meal of grilled cheese. I was impressed with the size of her kid's meal - it came with a decent-sized sandwich, huge portion of fries, a small kid's soda and a small custard. It was actually a pretty significant portion and my husband loved helping her finish it. Ha. I really enjoyed my husband's slider and the salads on the menu looked delish. My Nashville hot chicken sandwich was good, but a bit too hot for me, I did think the chicken was delicious. Hubs and I were both impressed with the quality and will happily come back again next time we're on this side of town. Used the restroom to change my daughter and they have a diaper changing station in the bathroom (a must for me now).

This is the best seasoned chicken sandwich in the 757. But I'll get back to that. Chesapeake's…read morelittle town center area has really stepped their game up and there are several good options for food and this is one of them. Parking is plentiful as it's in a strip mall, and we were able to self seat a party of 7 with no problem at all on a Saturday evening. The service was doing their best, but they definitely could use one or two more employees because the person making all the desserts (and there was a line JUST for take out dessert orders- because it's that good) was also the same one that needed to take our orders before we could sit down. I felt bad for her because she was working really hard on two very busy stations. The ambience is super casual so no need to dress up. So now lests get to the star of the show. This is the best chicken sandwich out and I'll put it up against anyone I've had anywhere. Well seasoned, tender, perfectly fried. The buns were potato bread so super soft, the sauces are fantastic and the variety of sandwiches is just enough to have a good amount of options. The fries are also delicious. À la carte so they are sold separately, but the portion makes it worth it because THEY ARE NOT STINGY! Flavor packed and great value for the cost. Last but not least the homemade custard is TOP TIER. Best I've had since i left Jersey back in the day. This place just took the top spot for chicken sandwiches for me and i can't eat to try more flavors.

We always choose the Greenbrier location in Chesapeake since there's ample parking available, and the service is very good. Tonight I tried a new salad, the Lemon Basil Harvest Blend, and I appreciated our server, Jackeline M for asking if I preferred the dressing on the side. Yes, please! I'm so glad she asked! This mixed greens salad has some star ingredients that caught my eye: charred artichokes, green olives, and grilled balsamic chicken. Yum. I'll be ordering this salad again. My bestie ordered her favorite bc combo with Tomato Soup and the Wine Country salad. She says that soup and salad combo never disappoints. She finished it! But, we always save room to share a trusty bc favorite dessert: the Wimbledon (strawberries with whipped cream crepes). Although it's no longer on the menu, the Greenbrier location always whips it up for us when we ask. It's an oldie, and a goodie! We enjoy the cozy atmosphere of Baker's Crust and find that our dinner catch ups over their delicious food and dessert are always long overdue. I boxed half of my salad to take home and Jackeline was kind in bringing me extra salad dressing to go. Very thoughtful. We'll be back soon!

Portions for salad and the size of the sandwiches were pretty small. Flavors were there but for $30/pp at lunch I'd expect to not leave hungry.
