    Spicy Lamb & Sweet Potato
    Kala J.

    I tried their new spicy lamb and sweet potato bowl... Not enough in the bowl! For $14 it should've been filled to the brim and it wasn't. It features half power greens, half brown rice: tzatziki, red pepper hummus (which I took off), spicy lamb meatballs,sumac slaw, pickled onions, crumbled feta, cucumber & tomato and tahini Caesar. I added roasted eggplant dip. It was fresh but not plentiful as I felt I should've gotten more for my buck. More meatballs, more veggies, IDK! The lamb meatballs were tender and seasoned well. The place was packed, parking is stupid! I'm a very busy plaza, caddy corner to Trader Joe's. The restroom was clean as well. I ordered online and it was ready when I arrived.

    Love this location as it has a nice patio and pond. I do wish parking was better. My made to order greens and grains bowl will always hit the spot. I didn't get a drink this visit but I usually go for the blueberry lavender mixed with lemonade. It's so refreshing.

    Order via DoorDash. The bowl was full to the top. Everything was fresh and still crunchy. The lamb and harissa chicken was tender. I loved the flavor of everything and I added nothing to it. My first time trying CAVA and I loved it.

    Garlicky Chicken Shawarma Bowl

    If you're ever looking for something light yet filling, this is the place to go! I ordered the chicken bowl and it was amazing. I did have to pay extra for hummus, feta cheese, and other toppings--even though it was a "build your own bowl"--so my meal ended up around $22 with all the add-ons. Still, the flavors were worth it. The restaurant has both indoor and outdoor seating, which is a nice touch, though I do wish they added more outdoor space. Overall, a good spot to grab a fresh meal. Feels a little more exclusive for clients, but definitely worth checking. Service was good, they were bilingual.

    The chipotle of Mediterranean food! Ordered a bowl and I was able to choose my own sauce and toppings. Tasted really fresh and delicious. Since it was my first time here, the employee helped walk me through some popular items. There's also plenty of seating inside.

    Custom Greens and Grains Bowl
    Fernando P.

    Was shopping at trader joe and decided to give CAVA a shot! Went for a bowl with greens and grains combo and definitely loaded up on the toppings. If you've never had Mediterranean food and are hesitant on certain toppings (tzatziki, hummus, etc) the staff also give little spoons for ya to taste! The dips and dressings are like a HUGE staple so definitely do not skip those. I'm not gonna lie, they don't skimp on the meat portions like some Mexican grill places that rhymes with "oat-lay". Also I'm skimping on the avocado, not because I don't like it, I absolutely love it, but in this economy I can't afford paying $3 extra for avocado without taking a loan and you know what, the bowl was still delicious. I'm on a cut so finding outside food that is one tasty and two within my caloric tolerance can be tricky but with the pick your toppings style that CAVA and other places have it's definitely nice to treat yo self without guilt! Oh the ambience is literally LaCenterra so like get a little walk in the square or go shopping it's pretty convenient!

    Salad Bowl with Hair
    Teti N.

    I placed an order via DoorDash on 3-14-26 in the evening. There was a long blonde hair in my salad. I spat out what I was chewing in the bowl and almost threw up. I have long jet black hair, so this was 100% not mine. The hair was underneath the lettuce etc. This is absolutely revolting and unacceptable from a chain restaurant. I cannot believe Cava doesn't have rules in place so this does not happen. This is a reflection of the brand and should be addressed. This Cava location clearly has unsanitary conditions. I'm beyond disgusted, and will never have food from Cava again. I hope management sees this review and takes it very seriously. Whoever was working tonight should be fired!

    Looking for fresh healthy food? Boom Done Excellent fast customer service! Clean and calm ambiance.

    Saffron Basmati Rice bowl
    Helen V.

    If you're looking for a healthier option, especially for a post-gym lunch, this place is perfect. The food is fresh, flavorful, and offers a variety of nutritious choices. I always go for the grain bowl with saffron basmati rice, and I love mixing it up with half falafel and half grilled chicken. One of the best things about Cava is the array of options for vegetables and hummus - it allows you to customize your meal based on your cravings. Whether you're in the mood for something tangy, spicy, or creamy, there's always something to match your taste.

    Cava always hits the spot!!!! I get the greens and grains bowl with splendid greens and basmati rice. They used to have beef meatballs as one of their mains, but they got rid of it a while back... miss it so much. Grilled chicken will suffice! Their dips + spreads are AMAZING and so are their dressings. Really brings everything together and adds a whirlwind of flavors. I also love how we can choose up to 13 toppings and double up on the faves. Service is usually dependent on how busy the place is. There have been times where I've had to wait longer than anticipated for my mobile order or certain ingredients were left out. In general, I think cava can definitely improve their system to have things run more smoothly and efficiently with minimal complications. Still such a solid place for high quality and filling food. At this location, there is plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. Parking can be limited, but there's a garage nearby. Since Trader Joe's is literally right across the street, my rec is to buy a box of pita bite crackers from there to eat with your cava order. So good!!

    Greens and Grains Bowl (Chicken, red pepper hummus, eggplant, tzatziki)
    Christopher C.

    Green + Grains will forever my heart - chicken is a must (but the falafel is also superb) Always ask for a side pita Cheers!

    Irene T.

    The food is really good and the workers were really nice! I like to get the chicken with arugula and bean and rice. I also like the broccoli topping, the tomato topping, and the red pepper hummus sauce. It's so flavorful. They have unisex toilet stalls and changing tables in both of them, always a big plus. The tables could be a bit cleaner, but it's a self-serve type of place. Really good vegan and vegetarian options but the chicken was also really tasty regardless. They also have steak for an additional cost. I like the mall area, the parking is free and they have farmers market on the weekend. A nice place to get a meal and then go shopping at Trader Joe's after.

Two workers were there, but unfortunately they said "the cooks aren't at work yet". They showed up about 5 minutes later as I was standing in the parking lot outside the door & they said to give them 10 minutes. I decided to run an errand & came back 30 minutes later. My order was a to-go. Upon my return, it took about 15 minutes for the food to be ready. I ordered the chicken curry lunch platter which comes with salad, rice & hummus. - Chicken curry (4/5)- quite unique curry sauce (kinda thick, can't place the spices) with tender chunks of chicken. - Salad (4.5/5) - Salad had a garlic dressing/sauce which elevated the basic lettuce salad & made it quite flavorful. - Hummus (3/5) - it was just ok for me. I've had some hummus at other Mediterranean places lately that are really fantastic so those have become my baseline. They have a garlic dip which I ordered as a side item, it's the most unique dip. It's whipped to a mashed potato consistency. It's good, different. When you mix the garlic dip into the hummus it upgrades the hummus flavor. - Lentil soup (3.5/5) I was expecting to have spoonfuls of actual whole lentils but this soup has the lentils puréed so it's just a little thicker than a broth soup with no visible lentils. The flavor is good, I can taste the black pepper (but it's not hot). I just prefer less of a puréed soup. Lots of pita bread was provided. The worker taking my order thanked me for coming back. Hopefully it's not a pattern for them not to be ready when the doors open.

There are several…read morelocations around Houston, but I especially like this Katy Freeway location because it offers weekday specials that provide excellent value. Monday through Friday from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., they offer a lunch special with one kebab and two sides for $17. They also have a happy hour Monday through Thursday from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m. with one kebab and two sides for $15, which is a great deal. The kebab options typically include chicken, beef, lamb, or shrimp. To my knowledge, the other Fadi's locations do not offer these specials. On my most recent visit, I stopped by for happy hour. While the kebabs aren't necessarily my favorite item on the menu, it's hard to beat a meal with one kebab and two sides for $15. I chose the pomegranate eggplant, fried cauliflower, and their "Mama Ganoush," a roasted eggplant dip similar to baba ganoush. Everything was fresh and flavorful. Each meal also comes with a warm pita bread that is served fresh from the oven. The ordering process is simple: grab a tray, move down the line, and choose from the foods on display before paying at the register. The staff are always friendly, and there's plenty of seating inside. If you're looking for fresh, authentic Mediterranean food in the Katy area, Fadi's is an easy recommendation.

The biggest turn off was the pita bread. The last time I came was 1+ year ago and the pita breads were to die for. I'm not sure if they had lowered the quality since then. Very sad. Fadi was my favorite Mediterranean chain in Houston.

I was in line to order to-go but the lady in front of me had the hardest time paying for her order. After several unsuccessful attempts, another lady came by to take my order so that she could put my order to the kitchen first while I waited to pay. I found that to be extremely considerate of the worker to think to do that. Food came out in about 15 minutes. I was so hungry I ended up deciding to eat in my car. A little disappointed that they didn't include any utensils (nor did they ask if needed any), but thankfully I had some extras in my car. I ordered a chicken kebab and they were nice enough to sub my rice for a salad without extra charge. Also ordered the borani bademjan because I'm a fan of all things eggplant. Everything was delicious. The chicken kebab was juicy, moist, and nicely seasoned. However, my favorite item was hands down the borani bademjan. It had large pieces of smoky grilled eggplants and I love the spiced tomato flavors. Yum! Highly recommend for all eggplant fanatics. The borani came with a piece of nan that was good as well. Overall a great find and will be back to try other items.

I had the challow kabab with naan and my friend had the chapli kabab with rice. Both dishes were SO tasty and I'd recommend both. The naan is not buttery or oily so it was perfect with the most delicious and perfectly marinated meats. The chutney/vinegar sauce is always so refreshing and pairs so well with everything. I want this place to succeed because the food is just SO delicious however, it saddens me that the waiter was so terrible. He was dressed in torn up jeans and was on his phone as if it was glued to his face. I had no idea he was the waiter until I saw him go in the kitchen and I had to flag him down like hi can we order?! When he came to take our order he was the most meh person ever. He just stared out at the window as he stood there waiting for us to place our order. He didn't offer water or drinks until I called him back to ask like...can I at least have some water please? Then he yells from the counter, do you want room temperature or cold? Ugh I love this restaurants food but it saddens me to think that this waiter is going to be the downfall of this place. At one point he was loudly watching tik tok videos (to the point where I couldn't hear my friend talking to me from across the table). The other tables were also visibly annoyed with his lackluster energy and effort and one family was willing to leave because of his meh attitude. Saffron--please let go of this waiter. You're just too good of a restaurant and I hope you continue to succeed!! I just think with this waiter around, you could lose business like you did today.
