    Lashes in the rice bowl

    Found an eyelash in the rice bowl and they forgot our pita after being reminded multiple times.

    Grain bowl with chicken and lamb.
    Monique P.

    Cava never disappoints. It is always clean and the service is quick, friendly, and responsive. I ordered the grain bowl with the saffron basmati rice, half chicken and half lamb. I received more lamb than chicken and was pretty hungry, so I asked for extra chicken. I added the extra fixings of tomatoes, cucumbers, hummus, broccoli and feta cheese. It was delicious! I love the garlic cesar dressing. This spot is becoming one of my favorites.

    My new favorite lunch spot!! The pita chips especially when fresh are amazing and I can easily eat 2 bags. This is a filling & healthy option for lunch and honestly dinner. The restaurant has always been clean and service has always been great when I go.

    The drinks!

    So I came here after my workout for the blind event 6-7-25. for a healthy option it's a nice layout and semi patio/extra seating outside from the entrance way to enjoy the breeze with your meal. It starts off a little slow here because I feel it's not many ppl working the front and it depends on what's ordered by each customer but they get you out the way pleasantly and everyone is happy. I got two bowl with chicken half rice half salad mix, tomato mix, roasted corn etc. pita strips hold well for what's in it. Crazy feta, harissa vinaigrette are my go-tos. The Strawberry Citrus Drink is liquid LOOOVE and citrus isn't overpowering at all. It's very refreshing!!! . LOOOVE that every food ingredient is flavorful, the mini pita needs some garlic in it or something it's super bland. The Garlic Dressing/Balsalmic vinaigrette is great as well!!.. however the chicken is marinated is so flavorful!! .. I'd definitely recommend this location

    Food was ready on time. I appreciate being able to pick up my food by car. Great customer service per usual I haven't personally been inside but I am sure it's similar to others I've been in. Very much a modern look inside and out.

    Create your own bowl.

    Been to this location 3x now and they don't miss. Service has always been quick and the food is always fresh.

    I had heard of the mythological Cava but never been before! Needless to say, I was impressed with the quantity and quality of food that you get for $10. I ended up with a HUGE bowl that fed me for two meals!! Granted I said yes to all the toppings and everything. I'll have to keep an eye out for CAVA in other cities I visit! @Cava please come to Seattle!

    Cava o cava how I love thee. I love the greens/grain bowls with half chicken and veggies. The plethora of options for sauces and sides. The new addition of the RightRice is a winner too if you don't mind the up charge and limiting carbs. There are a crap ton of combinations for a full belly and a smile. I always get a heavy handed server which makes me happiest. You can order in advance and pick up at the drive thru. They are no longer allowing seating in their dining area, nor are they accepting cash. Staff are friendly, I will continue to return to get my fix.

    CAVA remains one of the best fast casual options, and they've got locations ringing DC like the Beltway at this point. I stopped in because it was conveniently located near 50 and the actual Beltway. The menu at CAVA offers a great range of options for Mediterranean flavors. In response to the seemingly immortal question of where does the vegetarian get his protein, I ordered my usual bowl with half lentils and half greens for a base and got falafel, hummus, and crazy feta, among many other things. It's good stuff, and their spicy options are excellent as well, with harissa, hot peppers, and spicy dressings available at the end. This location has a drive through, which I might have utilized had I not realized that their app requires you to manually type in credit card info. In store they took apple pay, but I wasn't keen on trying to do the whole mess of typing things in at a stoplight. Note to CAVA: please improve in-app payment functions.

    The Cedars of Lebanon is an easily-overlooked cafe right on the corner of the Old Greenbelt…read moreShopping Center which is a lovely hidden gem. I spent every summer in this town, growing up, and I never discovered this restaurant until a precious friend brought me here a few years ago. It's a dated, though efficient, and charming, cafe with fresh dishes you might love. Firstly, if you plan on having lunch here on a Monday, make sure you are able to finish by 2:45 since they close by 3pm. All other days, they are open past 8pm. We started with the sweet potato soup despite the fact that the reviews for the lentil soup here are the highest. Yes! If it's featured: get it! The turmeric and coconut milk make this soup delightful. The herbs made it so fresh and there was just the right amount of sweetness and gentle heat. Parsley really adds to this recipe and I'm not usually a fan of this herb. The pitas are soft, thin and light. Love them. We needed to order more. I've never had such paper-thin pitas. Yum! I love love love the hummus, here. It is nothing short of divine. The flavors are fabulous and deeply complex. You can really taste the tahini. The olive oil is mild and delicious. I exclaimed, "the hummus was the best ever." And then 5 minutes later, I read a review by Yelper James H. where he says it's the best ever and, "... this hummus at Cedars of Lebanon might have ruined all other hummus for me forever." While I've had similar swooning feelings over the hummus at Lebanese Taverna in Tyson's Corner, this hummus is at least a top contender if not the metro DC area's hummus winner. The cucumber mint yogurt salad is nice, cold and refreshing. You can really taste the mint. I would order this yogurt salad with every meal. The falafel pizza is unusual and fresh. Straight away-- you can taste the tahini, parsley and couscous. The dough is grainy and natural. And there are radishes on this falafel pizza: not overpowering. For the $9 or so pricepoint, this dish is a true labor of love. To prep all of these vegetables, even with food processors, must take time. How novel of a dish! Put the yogurt salad on this pizza. You will thank me. And I only did it because I was watching someone else slather it on. There were at least 12 desserts on the menu. Meow. If we weren't so full of pita, hummus, tahini and fresh veggies, we certainly would love to taste a few of these. As well as the Turkish coffee, with an authentic ceramic and metal carafé presentation.

    Pretty easy, breezy no-frills restaurant…read more We stopped by Cedars of Lebanon, because it was one of the few places that had outdoor seating and was not full. The restaurant has a small outdoor dining area with three four-seater tables, which was find for our two dogs. The experience overall was pretty low key, which necessarily is not a bad thing. Although there is waiter/waitress service, you will have to order your food at the cashier's counter. Actually, maybe that's only a thing if you are dining outside. The menu has a nice mix of Middle Eastern dishes. I went with a beef (or maybe it was lamb) kabob plate. The portions were fine and my meal was pretty good. It was not out of this world amazing, but it got the job done. I thought that the prices were pretty good for the area and the amount of food received. Although the food was fine, I do not think that I would go out of my way (e.g., driving more than 30 minutes) to dine here. Just be aware that the restaurant does not serve alcoholic beverages.

Outside feels like a complete different place (so pick indoor seating). Second, the staff is very friendly. We ordered several of their appetizers for our group and they were all delicious. Their kabab plates were a hit. They also offered a good selection of drinks. Minor thing, and it is from personal experience only: their menus are printed on black paper and in a plastic sleeve. Reminds me of the bad touristy places in Europe. It did not represent how good the food was, because usually we run away from this Massive Plastic menus... so I Joel one day they will update them to something nicer for a better first feel.

That made the experience feel even more special in hindsight. We walked in on a Monday night without reservations (clearly a theme for us!), not knowing they were needed. Thankfully, they were able to seat us in the bar area, which turned out to be a perfect spot for a relaxed dinner and a glass of wine. We ordered a mix to share: hummus, spanakopita, kofte kebab, and adana kebab. Everything was delicious, but the spanakopita really stood out. It was a bit unexpected--not layered like the traditional version, but more of a rolled presentation. Even so, the flavors were wonderful and elevated in a way that made it memorable. The only slight disappointment for me was the wine selection. The red wines leaned more dry than I typically prefer--I tend to go for something more fruit-forward--but it didn't take away from the overall experience. Dessert was the one miss. We were really hoping for baklava, which wasn't on the menu. Instead, we ordered the walnut delight. While it had all the right flavors, it didn't quite deliver the wow factor we were hoping for. That said, the food, atmosphere, and overall experience were still impressive. I was excited to learn that Zaytinya has locations beyond D.C., including closer to home in the Bay Area--so I'll definitely be visiting again. Highly recommend, and maybe make a reservation!
