My first time being here last night and it wasn't only delicious but the service was amazing! I ordered the chicken rice bowl with garlic dressing and omg the chicken was juicy and seasoned delicious. Special shoutout to Xochilt and Genesis, thank you ladies for your superb customer service. read more

First time trying Cava. I ordered pickup through the app and got a salad bowl with chicken. Lots of parking and very spacious. I like the variety you have to choose from and it was hard to pick which dips I wanted since I wanted to try them all haha. Comes in a big yellow cava bag upon request. read more

Let me start off by saying that I love CAVA. I've been to numerous locations over the years, and I've always enjoyed the food. I recently moved to this area, so this is now the closest location to me. Unfortunately, this location has been consistently disappointing. I've been here several times, and almost every visit I've had some sort of issue with the portions. I'm not asking for extra meat or anything that would significantly increase the cost of my meal. I'll simply ask for a little more rice or an extra scoop of a side such as corn etc, and 8 out of 10 times I get pushback from the staff. On one visit, I even mentioned that the Rancho location has never made me feel like I'm asking for too much when requesting a little more rice or a side. They provide reasonable portions without making customers feel uncomfortable. Here, the portions are consistently very small, and asking for a little extra often feels like an inconvenience to the employees. I also made the mistake of placing a pickup order once. The portions were even smaller than when ordering in person. Based on that experience, I wouldn't recommend ordering pickup from this location if you expect the same portion sizes you'd receive elsewhere. I still love CAVA as a brand, but this particular location has been consistently inconsistent with portions and customer service. I hope management addresses this because it doesn't reflect the experience I've had at other CAVA locations. read more

First time trying CAVA! Plenty of parking in the plaza and the inside is super spacious with outside seating as well. It is basically like Chipotle style where you can order down the line. Service is quite fast and I love that there is a build your own option since i'm so picky! I got the saffron rice, mixed greens, steak (extra charge so worth it though), Tzatziki sauce, broccoli, corn, pita crisps, pita, garlic dressing, and green sauce. The rice is so flavorful and everything paired so well together. The steak was a bit overcooked but other than that I really enjoyed it! I would definitely come back. read more

I took a cava break for a while bc i was having it so much and finally tried it again after a few months and tasted so so good! I love to do the build your own bowl with steak and the portions are always so big. They have the perfect toppings that are so fresh and crunchy and a variety of flavors. read more

I love their choices. Every time I go I try something new or different so far I don't have a favorite to go since I'm still exploring their menu but haven't been disappointed yet. My son is enjoying his options as well, staff is friendly and very patient. Level of noise is appropriate and can have a conversation with having to yell, enjoy the background music. read more

I've been here before but glad I came back today to get the Harissa Avocado and Salmon bowl. I was amazed how quick ordering was and that time was not wasted! I love the freshness that you can taste from the vegetables and the distinct sauce for the bowl of choice! I am so happy with my food. The place was spacious and organized. (The rest room needs attention please). Price for the 2 orders about $39.00. Definitely worth the price! read more

The food was pretty decent the chicken was cooked all the way through and had flavor. All of the condiments I get were available from the fiery broccoli to the cucumber and tomatoes. Everything appears to be freshly made. The only weird part was when I walked in initially nobody spoke and welcomed me in. Then a minute of awkward silence someone said I'll be right with you. Besides that I can't complain. The ambiance is kind of dead like I stated earlier when I walked in nobody spoke it took a few minutes to get a hello I'll be with you. All and all pretty decent I would try that location again to see if the service gets better. read more

CAVA - Harissa Chicken Build Your Bowl - Mediterranean Near Me - Moreno Valley, California

Delicious and affordable. I tend to get the grain bowl with lentils for a bit of extra protein, but I tried the saffron rice recently and it was surprisingly flavorful. I would definitely recommend the bowls over wraps, though. Those fall apart really easily and drip sauce everywhere. Service is friendly, but this store gets pretty busy and I think they prioritize in-person orders over online ones. On the last few times I ordered on the app, my order took a fair bit longer to make than estimated. Store is decently clean, but again, really busy in there. Not all the tables are clean all the time, but it's understandable. read more

Holy cow. This is the most delicious thing I've ever eaten. 10/10 you need to try it at least once. I'd heard from many people it's a Mediterranean version of Chipotle. And yes, while that's true, it's so much better, fresher, and tastier. My only hesitation is their Yelp didn't have enough photos of the menu... until now ;-) I've added photos of everything so you can plan before you arrive. Here's what we ordered: Spicy Chicken Avocado Pita - This was served with Harissa Honey Chicken. My husband devoured it. There were no leftovers, but I was able to sneak in a bite. I've always loved spicy food, but I had surgery a few years ago and can no longer tolerate spice. So this was delicious, but I wouldn't be able to order it for myself. 1x Build Your Own Bowl - This comes with a complimentary pita slice. I hate leftovers, but trust me when I say, this got ate. I can't wait to go back! Now that I have a better idea of all the ingredients, I'll be experimenting to build my perfect bowl. My only regret is not asking for the dressing on the side. Only because all the ingredients are flavorful and can stand on their own. I don't need dressing in every bite. Below is what I ordered for my bowl: - Base (mix): Saffron Basmati Rice and Black Lentils - Dips (up to 3): Tzatziki, traditional hummus, crazy feta - Mains (1 or mix 2): Chicken Shawarma + Falafel - Toppings (unlimited): fire-roasted corn, tomato + cucumber, Persian cucumbers - Dressings (1): Tahini Caesar Cinnamon Sugar Pita Chips - Holy hell. This alone was worth the trip. Although it was delicious with the honey, it's strong enough to stand on it's own without it. This is a must try. Do not skip this. 2x Drinks - My husband stuck with a soda, but I tried two of the housemade drinks before deciding. I tried the Cucumber drink which was lovely, but I was more in the mood for tart so I opted to drink the Pineapple Apple Mint juice. You MUST try this place at least once. read more

I just wanted to take a moment to shout out Leslie -- she is seriously the best. Every time we come in, she's always so welcoming, courteous, and on top of everything. You can tell she genuinely cares, and it makes such a difference in the overall experience. She's always communicative, attentive, and just has that energy that instantly makes your day better. It's rare to come across someone who consistently goes above and beyond like she does. Thank you, Leslie, for always taking care of us and making each visit such a great one. It truly doesn't go unnoticed! read more

Convenient location and clean interior. I've eaten here a few times and there's always ample seating, but I prefer not to because the seats are crazy hard and uncomfortable. Bathrooms require a code, and could use a little more attention but aren't too bad. Order in advance because they always take about 20 minutes to process online orders. The food is delicious, fresh, flavorful, weirdly affordable, and they offer many more options for custom bowls than competitors. There's complimentary sparkling water from the fountain, and seemingly no normal water. The grains bowl is a much better value than the greens bowl. You can even make it more macro friendly by getting lentils as your base! I have never seen a place like this offer a protein as if it were a carb. It's an insane value and so filling, as compared to salad bases. I used to just get salad bowls, but halfway through my meal I'd be out of greens and still have a ton of the other stuff left over. I feel that greens bowls should be filled up to the top and grains bowls up to the line, instead of both being filled up to the line. Getting lentils makes it so much more balanced. The bowls seem like they triple in weight. I just add greens at home and I can stretch the same portion out for 3-4 meals. read more

We ordered food on a Sunday afternoon. Today we decided to order for an online pick up. It was pretty busy when we arrived but the pick up wasn't too bad. I ordered the chicken + rice with super greens, roasted veggies and lemon herb dressing. The portions we received weren't equally put in. For instance, my bowl mainly consisted of supergreens and a few pieces of chicken. I barely had any rice or veggies. Although just a few, the veggies were either burnt or old. I couldn't tell which one but they were all black. I also asked to include the free pita bread which wasn't included in any of our five bowls. I double checked the receipt and that, too, says Free Pita as part of order but we didn't receive any. Not sure which part of the meal it was but I had a faint taste of bitterness. I wasn't sure if it was all the super greens or part of the sauce. I would rate my bowl a 5.5/10. read more

They leave the door open, but when you walk in at 10:25 the kick you out because they can't have anyone inside... how about locking the front door and only leaving the side door open? read more

This location is really nice. Found my favorite bowl combo today too: Saffron rice, tzatziki 2, traditional hummus, 1/2 steak 1/2 roasted veggies, corn, pickled onion, tomato + cucumber, Persian cucumber, Kalamata olives x2, crumbled feta x2, and tahini Caesar dressing on the side. Also the strawberry citrus drink or the cucumber mint lime are delicious. The only way it could be better is if they opened a Cava in Yucaipa/Redlands/Loma Linda area because it's much closer to where I live. read more

Cava is such a great meal especially for those with a sensitive stomach just don't get the falafel bc it's fried and could hurt your stomach if you have a sensitive stomach. Light, refreshing and filling. I didn't see anyone post about the options and couldn't find pictures and I wanted to share what they offer for those that are ordering for the first time. My go to order is as follows; Bowl with arugula and lentils as base. Regular hummus, crazy feta and tzaziki. Grilled chicken and roasted veggies. Firey broccoli, pickled onions, tomato and onion, Persian cucumber, avocado Skhug, garlic dressing, balsamic date vinaigrette. Service is always fast and it's always calm inside which creates a good atmosphere to enjoy your meal. read more

Had to try this place and it's great fresh food. I recommend you try it! Be back soon.

I came to this location excited to get my usual - the avocado harissa bowl with pita chips. And I ordered just that! There were pita chips on the counter but I wanted them warm to eat right away so the worker was kind enough to make me some fresh ones. Customer service here is good and I overheard a woman behind me giving the worker some grief an he remainder professional and answers the rude woman's questions. 10/10 read more

This was my first time visiting the CAVA on Day Street in Moreno Valley, and I had an amazing experience! The food was fresh, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. Genesis provided outstanding customer service. She was so friendly, welcoming, and patient while helping me decide what to order.

I will definitely be coming back and highly recommend the CAVA on Day Street in Moreno Valley! read more

I really tried to give this place a chance, but this was beyond disappointing. Pulled up on a Friday night--an hour before closing (they close at 10:30pm)--after driving 20 minutes to get there. I walk in just to be told, "We stop cooking at 8pm." Huh? It's 9:30. Not only were they out of meat, but they were also out of pita chips. Like... how do you run out of ALL your meat and snacks at a spot that's supposed to stay open another hour? What really got me though was the lack of effort. No, "Can I offer you something else?" No "We can whip up a quick order of xyz." Just... "The kitchen's closed." No solution, no courtesy, no care. If you're going to advertise being open until 10:30, then be prepared to serve customers until then--or at least let people know what to expect before they waste time and gas getting there. Do better. read more

I was very excited to try, but didn't feel welcomed, first time there and there were about 8 employees hanging around but kept us waiting for ten minutes before being helped. We went around 8pm and a lot of the choices were out, which I guess was our fault but we thought since there were still 2 hours before closing we'd be good. I'm not sure if this is meant to be cold since it's my first time but I tried a bowl, it was a little strange eating cold rice, and cold meat like the steak and falafa so I wasn't a fan of a cold bowl, not all the hype people make it out to be read more

How do I Love thee....the food and menu options are great for healthy eaters! The prep time is good and the staff has always been nice. The downfall is they don't keep the food stations neat and they should set some standards for properly rotating the food stations. When I've asked for a fresher item, they are nice and do it.....but should the customer have to ask for that? The prices are on the higher end, something to keep in mind. read more

So good! Someone likened Cava to a "Mediterranean Chipotle". You go down the line adding your desired ingredients, or, you can order a pre-designed dish. Let me tell you, it was so delicious!! Such amazing flavor, and great prices. My only qualm...there is not a Cava where I live yet! I can only hope one opens up, they will have a loyal customer in me! read more

I love this cava. The service is usually pretty fast and the quality never suffers. I usually get a salad bowl with falafel, red pepper hummus, harissa and tzatziki, all the veggies, pita crisps and tahini. The falafel is always warm and crispy. The flavors continue to complement the ingredients in my bowl. It is definitely a favorite of mine to grab during lunch if I didn't bring anything to work. It lasts two meals and hits both times. Affordable and delicious. Highly recommend if you haven't tried it! read more

This was my first and last time coming to Cava. I hope this is a franchise and other Cava locations are better. The staff was so rude when my party of three came in during lunch on a weekday. They didn't want to help us, as they were doing other tasks. I can't believe they rolled their eyes at the thought of helping customers. They used to do a military discount and the place was packed. They do not do military discount anymore. The restaurant was dead. Despite being dead, the restaurant was clean. My create your own bowl came out to about $15. Everything was fresh and customizable. It was delicious, but the service ruined it for me. $15 is pretty expensive for lunch, which is why I bring my own from home. I won't be coming back here because of the staff. read more

CAVA - Create your own! Delicious and expensive! - Mediterranean Near Me - Moreno Valley, California

With all these build-to-order style restaurants it's somewhat difficult for me to get excited, but the opportunity to try the new Cava location in Moreno Valley somewhat convinced me this model can work. The line was moderately long when a friend and I walked in. Previously, she had enjoyed the Greek Salad, and I was going in willing to try whatever. Because the line was long enough I changed my mind a few times, but ultimately settled on the Harisa steak bowl, especially after seeing an employee chop up a freshly grilled steak and seeing it was an honest medium temperature. My turn came and I had the person helping me add black lentils and saffron rice to the bowl. Otherwise, I went with the "stock" recipe and it proved ample in quantity and quality. Overall, I'd return for sure. I'd like to try the falafel wrap, and the chicken Shawerma as well. Prices are reasonable, too. read more

ORDER half greens half rice bowl (3/5) this is a busy location and there is always a wait. they're pretty inconsistent, so sometimes they can be very skimpy. this day in particular, my bowl was basically a soup. i think they didn't shake the skhug or something, but the picture below doesnt show nearly as much water that was in my bowl. another bad experience i had was after waiting for 30 minutes, my bowl was put on pause since the worker preparing my bowl stopped to make a bowl for her coworker to take home instead.

So happy this is in MoVal now. I highly recommend their Grilled Steak + Harissa Chicken. High quality meat options! Not too salty and they don't skimp on the portion. Can't go wrong with a falafel too. Their Crazy Feta, Hummus, and Pickles always hit the spot!!! Service here can be pretty slow because of long lines that come at rush hour. Surprisingly, I came at 3:30 PM and it was still a long wait. Definitely order online if you can. read more

Cava is near and dear to my heart, and I make sure to grab some when I visit Southern California since they don't have any Bay Area locations yet! I always gravitate towards going half and half on their grilled steak and grilled chicken, and their harissa butter is to die for. The employee helping us was so sweet, she gave us heaping portions of protein and greens for our bowl. We asked for pickled onions and feta cheese on the side, and their containers pack a hefty amount! Even though this can err on the pricier side (typically coming in at around $17 per bowl depending on your add ons), I find that the combination of accessible and healthy food that comes quickly and is convenient to take on-the-go/finish at a later time is worth it. We noted that some Cava locations do not have the ability to order online, but this one does. If you can place your order on the website/app and come in, you'll save yourself from spending time waiting in line with fellow eager patrons. read more

This is a newer spot conveniently located off Day St. the selection of food is plenty. Even for those that don't eat meat. There's a variety of drinks as well. The staff helped me figure out what my friend and I wanted - after lots of questions. The staff were very helpful and friendly. It didn't feel rushed. They have a large seating area inside and an outside patio section too. It was nice! Highly recommend. read more

I wasn't sure if I should say this but I just had to. I went to get my usual bowl on Sunday May 17 and during my visit, I witnessed an interaction that really upset me. I saw a blond lady who I'm assuming it might be the manager speaking very unprofessional and very disrespectful to a team member. It is very wrong to speak to anyone like that in that manner especially in public. It made things very unpleasant and gave the business leadership and work environment a bad image. The way management handles employees speaks volumes about a business and unfortunately this interaction left me with a bad impression of the business. Please ensure this is resolved because workers who are working for this business should be treated with respect. Do better Cava. read more
