I was so excited that my neighborhood finally got a CAVA! Me and my friends were playing tennis down the block and ordered ahead to pickup our bowls. We arrived at 9:20pm and we did have to wait a good amount of time for our order. The whole crew was working hard to tidy up and close the store, except Zach on the register. It was pretty funny to watch everyone else smile and clean but this guy was dozing off, reading the menu, going back and forth for one wipe at a time, and looking around waiting to be told what to do from his team. Besides that, I can't wait to come again because the food is delicious. Amy was super nice to us Manager, please talk to that guy Zach he needs to learn some more skills like team effort. read more

CAVA - Chicken Shawarma bowl. - Mediterranean Near Me - Huntington Beach, California

Clean, sanitary, always good! I'm always coming here after a long day of work and it always hits. read more

Went in for lunch today. Did not seem too busy. I waited for the person ahead of me to get their order, then I placed mine. 1st red flag - The Chicken Shawarma pieces are smaller than my rice As I got to the toppings I was on the last item, and I asked to have it on the side. Emma proceeded to almost put it in my bowl when she was stopped by the person at the check register and told, on the side. Emma then asked on the side? I said yes on the side. She had a smirk and said on the side side, because normally everything is on the side in the bowl. I looked straight at her and said Yes, on the side normally means on the side. She proceeded to stand there staring at me with a rude snarky smile on her face. She turned and looked at the cashier and then turned back to me and just stared, with the same snarky smile, not one word. She continued to just stand there and stare so I asked her, do we have a problem? At this point I believe the cashier knew there was an issue and I asked for garlic sauce on the side, to which Emma made another face, and with a snarky voice said, on the side. The cashier asked me if there was a problem to which I told her Yes, you heard her (Emma) being, rude and that is not ok. The cashier said she didn't hear her, but I don't believe that because I would have had pickles in my bowl if she wasn't observing the interaction. I am a paying customer, just going to purchase food from your establishment. The attitude this employee had is shocking. If Emma is kept as an employee, I fear for your profit, as she's chasing your customers away. read more

Cava is the best new spots in HB! Healthy and the staff is so nice! Kalana and Maria took great care of us! We will definitely be coming back! read more

i'm not sure if i was just hungry, but i felt like the food from this location was so much better than other cavas i've gone to! the whole restaurant was very clean and the workers were all so helpful! i had a $16 house credit that i thought had expired and no one else brought it up aside from the person who was working today when i scanned my cava app! i definitely recommend going to this cava :) read more

Stopped by right when they opened and saw their sweet team bonding meeting, I can tell they put in a lot of care and dedication. The staff is very friendly and have quick service. Thank you to Jasmine for checking in on us! read more

My first time at a Cava, I was looking forward to it. I got the build your own bowl with grilled chicken and falafel. I like the concept and the toppings and dips were plentiful and flavorful. My biggest complaint is the quality of chicken. It was so grisly and fatty. Every single bite had a chewy texture and it was off putting. Honestly it made the whole bowl unappetizing once I mixed it. I would go steak or all veggie and skip the chicken. read more

If you're mobile ordering, make sure to double check your order before leaving. I often come to this location while I'm on my lunch break at work and order on my phone out of efficiency. Both times, something has been missing or the bowl I order has been incorrect. Also, if there is any promo going on (on the app they often run promos for free pita chips) and you use it for your order, they'll let you redeem it but refuse to give you the item the promo is for. Super shady business. read more

Waited in a long ass line for an hour just for them to charge me for 3 bowls when I bought two. The workers don't even look like they want to be here, probably because one of the managers keeps yelling at every mistake, though I kind of understand. Lots of seating, nice interior, and okay portions make this place not a one-star. read more

Cava is in my biweekly rotation and I'm so glad a location closer to me has opened up. Sophia did my toppings and kalana was my cashier and both provided great customer service. read more

had such a great experience at CAVA in Huntington Beach! The food was sooo good -- fresh, flavorful, and super satisfying. I built my own bowl and everything from the greens to the proteins and sauces tasted amazing. You can really tell they care about quality here. The staff was also really friendly and helpful, even during the lunch rush. The whole vibe of the place was clean and welcoming. Definitely coming back soon -- this spot is a gem for healthy, tasty food that doesn't feel like a compromise! Shout out to Devanna! She was so helpful , super sweet & chill. Where ever there is is a CAVA , I'm near. ! read more

I'm so glad that Cava open in HB. I love feeling satisfied after every meal, one of the best deals locally. Staff is very attentive and doesn't matter which combination you make, It's always delicious! Great portions that you can create, I like adding additional toppings. I appreciate a place that takes their time getting your order right. It's well worth it. Thanks Cava! read more

Love the food there always. So much flavor and the hummus wonderful staff is fast and great listeners

Love this place . Kalana was very helpful! We come at least once a week. The spicy chicken is so good . read more

Loved CAVA when i lived in LA. Unfortunately this location is terrible--they use a very small scooper for the add-ons, like laughably, pitifully small (think less than a tablespoon of stuff per scoop) that the bowl (which is not cheap) isn't filled to even halfway. I think many other reviews here echo the same sentiment. So stingy!!!! Food itself is good but doesn't justify the skimpiness, especially when other locations are much more generous. Hope things change but for now won't be returning to this particular location. read more

I didn't think the service was great. I think it I went during the first week it was open. But my bowl was supposed to have avocado but they ran out. She didn't even check to see if there was any more. I'm sure there was. read more

Love cava! This store is still working out their kinks, but by far the best service I have received at any cava! Luna will convince you to buy the chips (do it - they are worth it) read more

I LOVE Cava I eat here like once a week. The ingredients are so fresh and it's like a healthy version of chipotle but with more options and Mediterranean taste read more

Clo and Adam are the best! They are so welcoming and friendly! these guys made the me feel so welcome! Coming back just from the experience! The food is a plus obviously! read more

I love the food but me and my friends have been treated rudely by the worker with the long beanie. He seems like he doesn't want to be there, rolls his eyes when we ask questions and gives off a terrible vibe. Thankfully we were helped by more understanding employees and kept our business. read more

My husband and I used to go to CAVA in Irvine. We were both excited when CAVA opened near our house, but something has been changed. The portion was extremely small; the bowls were about half full. My salad looks kinda "sad," like leftover. We spent $40 for two salads, and this is disappointing. I would go to Sweetgreen, which has a similar concept: clean, fast, almost same price, but more choices and generous with the portion. read more

I've been to a lot of cava restaurants, and this is by far the slowest I have ever seen. It took us 25 minutes to get food. When we got up there, they were out of three of the main ingredients of the bowl. That's fine. I said I'll take it anyway. Then I go down to get utensils and find out that they are out of forks. What a joke. I will never visit this restaurant again. read more

Sauces, toppings, meat and veggies are consistently delicious. Once in awhile the lentils are hard and crunchy which is annoying but it's not enough to keep me from coming back. Their refresher drinks are always consistent in taste too. I recommend the cucumber one. The customer service here is spotty. Some of the workers look like they hate their job 60% of the time when I come in. One time I asked for pickles and the container had some left inside but the chick told me they were out of pickles. Like girl scoop it off the sides of the bowl then. Some of the managers snap at the workers too as well. I can feel the tension half the time when I come in. I only come in for dinner. But again, I only come for the food which I love! read more

The Chicken Avocado Bowl seriously hits the spot. The chicken is legit juicy with that smoky flavor, and the avocado just elevates the whole thing. Everything tastes super fresh. It's the perfect go to when you want something healthy but still feel like you're treating yourself read more

OMG this was my first time trying CAVA and I'm already hooked. Let's start with the service: 5 stars! Now on to the most important part, well at least in my book, the food: Sooooo yummy! Very fresh ingredients and the flavor profile was on point. My 14 year old is an extremely picky eater and she really enjoyed it as well. Looking forward to coming back and exploring the menu further! read more

CAVA Bien. Every time. This location has Devonna so they are extra blessed. In the 5 minutes she made my bowl she touched my soul. Great food. Great service. You already know I'll be back. Probably tomorrow. :-D read more

Amazing service by Kalana and Zach. clean restaurant and nice layout great food ill come back

This location just opened. I'd say wait a little bit till they have the kinks worked out. They were out of a lot of the different toppings. As well as out of lettuce. It was kinda weird. I also felt like they were skimping me out of the amounts of various items. Normally my bowl is packed but it was maybe half way full. The meats were cold. The whole experience was not great for a cava. I'll come back in a few months and try it again read more

I will always love CAVA and was excited one opened up closer to me. I'm not sure if it's bc the staff are newly trained, but they really skimped on everything. My bowl was so small even though i got several items. Definitely not worth the price it came out to. Might come back in a couple months to see if there is any improvement on portion size ... read more

Good service Good food Clean and fresh ambiance So glad there's a Cava here in HB. I had it for the first time in Phoenix and loved it. read more

Food was good but they were running out of certain ingredients. It was busy on Saturday nite around 7:00 no ice in the soda dispenser had to ask one soda was out, floor was not cleaned and tables not cleaned. I understand it has start up hiccups and hope it succeeds. The employees were very helpful at the counter and friendly. read more

Always fresh, flavorful, and fast. The ingredients are top quality and the staff is friendly every time. One of my go to spots!

This Cava location is by far the best location. The ambiance is A1 and the customer service matches it as well. I had the pleasure to meet management (Devonna) and she was attentive to providing quality customer service. The food was fresh which is always a plus. Hands down you wanna check this location out. read more

Horrible. Is this like the Temu version of Cava? From the slowest service on Earth to asking for more protein (they literally put one piece of diced chicken after telling them you will pay extra) and they were out of garlic sauce at the end. That's the best part!!!! The black lentils were totally uncooked. It was like biting into rocks. Horrible. We have been to the Cava in Irvine, Goleta, and Costa Mesa and they were all amazing. Tried this location in HB on Adams and both times, so slow. Never going back. Going to stick to the Irvine location. read more

The service given by Kalana was amazing, the food was delicious (I had the Harissa Bowl-popular one) and clean, and the choices were immense!! I would definitely recommend this location!! read more
