    I got a custom bowl with mixed greens, rice, chicken and falafels with a mix of tzatziki and lemon sauce. It filled me up and their pita chips were delicious. Service was decent as it wasn't too busy and ambiance was nice because it wasn't too crowded.

    Really great food! Not heavy at all I got a build your own bowl with chicken and rice

    Disappointed that even though I got half a serving of braised lamb, I was charged me as if I got the full

    It was my first time at CAVA and I would recommend if it's your first time, to order a bowl odd the menu rather than a build your own (BYO) since it's difficult to predict how the flavor combinations will work together, especially since there are so many things to choose -- a bit overwhelming. But alas, I did a BYO and there were more sour flavors and not enough salty and sweet to balance. I wish it was clearer that when you order half a serving of a protein that has extra cost, they will charge you the full amount (as if you got a whole serving). Perhaps next time will be better.

    Love cava! We were in the area today 5/23 and decided to stop by when they opened. Very clean location and was able to find parking right up front. Only complaint is they didn't have half of the toppings which was kinda odd. I think it's better to let people know up front instead of waiting until they get to the toppings section which is right before you check out.

    Stale ah pita chips

    Cava overall is a great place to eat, but this location has been absolutely terrible. The workers have no sense of urgency. The food when picked up is always freezing cold, stale pita chips, and hardly any protein is being put in the bowls. I've had great experiences at other locations, sad to not be able to say the same thing about this one.

    Great news! The table situation has been fixed. They now have white stone tops which are very clean. It feels good to eat here again! Food is as good as usual. Updating my review to 5 stars

    I love you CAVA, please come to the Bay Area! I always describe this as a Mediterranean version of Chipotle, but better. Although it's a casual/takeout chain restaurant, the food and service have never missed for me. This is a non-negotiable must have for me every time I'm in SoCal. My go to is Supergreens and Splendidgreens mixes, grilled chicken, Tahini Caesar dressing, hummus, fiery broccoli, corn, persian cucumbers, feta, tomato and cucumber, and a side pita. Their falafel and spicy lamb meatballs are also quite good!

    To go order.

    Millie, Taia, and Richard the dream team over at Cava helped in fulfilling my lunch order today. Their energy was great and it made me that much more excited for my meal! I ordered the BYO bowl with Harissa Honey Chicken. Chicken was juicy, tender and has a great lil kick to it. I'm the type that loves a colorful bowl so I get all the toppings. Such a plus that Cava gives you unlimited toppings! My absolute fav dressings are the yogurt dill and garlic. Millie also let me try out their skhug and that one might make it all the way to the top of my list as well. All of them are rich, creamy and perfect for any bowl or wrap. Thank you guys at Cava for the amazing service, I am a happy and returning customer for this specific location!

    I fell in love with Cava while I was in Atlanta. This LA location didn't disappoint. I just wrapped up with an event across the street, and needed to grab a bite. The parking situation was a nightmare, and I had no idea where to park. There was a garage attached to the building, but the attendant said you can't park there for Cava. The workers did seem ever so slightly annoyed that I didn't know what I wanted. I had only been to one in Atlanta, and it had been a while, so I was still unfamiliar with the bowls. Anyway, it was still delicious. I do wish the bowls were crafted in a way where you can see where things are. My bowl felt like it was missing something for there to be a savory/sweet balance the whole time I was eating, and then I got to this last part that had a huge chunk of some sort of garlic-y paste that I would've distributed more evenly if I saw it. The corn pretty much covered everything, but I guess they expect you to just mix it all before you eat. Anyway, the location was super clean. Service was super quick. And there are plenty of beverages to choose from. I'll definitely come back.

    Travel plans had me passing through LAX on my way back to MSP, and to my surprise, I found myself right next to a CAVA! Let's just say ... goodness in a bowl. I ordered my usual: the Steak & Harissa Bowl (minus the tomatoes) and it was everything. Fresh, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. CAVA really knows how to deliver bold, satisfying flavors in a fast-casual setting. If you have a CAVA near you, run, don't walk. Unfortunately, Minneapolis hasn't caught on yet ... either they're missing the memo or CAVA is being a little stingy about expanding. Either way, I'll be patiently waiting (and maybe secretly hoping they set up shop in MN soon)!

    Service sucks at least the food is good! Never coming back

    1 star for the food. Cava always taste good! I dont think ill ever come back to this location. We came in after picking up our bib from diplo running club across the street and I wish we didnt come here today. They have 2 doors and 1 was locked so we walked towards the one on the side, before walking in this lady slammed the door open for me then walked away.. thanks i guess? She really didnt have to do that lol. The service was so terrible the worker making our food acted like his job was so hard scooping hummas. Are you really that lazy??? Is working here really a drag?? I honestly started to feel so bad for the employees. Is it that miserable working here? Smh or maybe this attitude is just an LA thing. I would much rather walk a few buildings over to chipotle

I also loved the mushroom kabob and grilled octopus. The service was on point and the sommelier was extremely helpful with off menu wine choices including a Cannonau from Sardinia that was so good we bought (and drank) a second bottle. The restaurant is cool and lovely inside, the outside patio looked like a good space too. Valet parking is $13 but there is plenty of street parking too. Outstanding quintessential LA restaurant!!! Highly recommended!

My personal favorites are the steak and the chicken--both are incredibly tender, juicy, and packed with flavor. You can really taste the quality of the ingredients in every bite. One thing you absolutely cannot skip is the edamame hummus. I had never even heard of edamame hummus before coming here, and now I can't believe I went so long without trying it. It was smooth, fresh, and full of flavor while putting such a unique twist on traditional hummus. It's one of those dishes that completely changes your expectations and has you thinking about it long after you've left the restaurant. On top of the amazing food, the service was outstanding. Everyone made us feel genuinely welcome, and the atmosphere was warm, relaxing, and perfect whether you're grabbing a casual lunch or having dinner with friends or family.
