    Stopped by this CAVA in Nashville for a quick dinner and was impressed by how fast and efficient the line moved -- even during the dinner rush. The staff kept things moving smoothly, and everything looked clean and fresh. The menu was a bit limited, and it seemed like 99% of folks were doing bowls, but I went for the shawarma pita instead. Flavor-wise -- excellent! The ingredients were fresh, vibrant, and flavorful, and I really enjoyed the seasoning on the chicken. That said, there was one hiccup. It looked like the staff member making my order was reading the steps off a card, which is totally fine -- everyone learns somewhere! But maybe it wasn't written on the card to drain the onions before adding them, because by the time I got back to my hotel (a 3-minute walk), the entire paper wrap was soaked. The vinegar and sauce mix had completely drenched the pita, making it nearly impossible to eat without a fork. So overall -- great taste, great ingredients, friendly service, but maybe a little more attention to prep details (especially draining the toppings) would take this from good to great. Would definitely come back -- just probably sticking to the bowl next time!

    I could eat cava every day and not get tired of it. It's just one of those things. I don't really understand. The thing is I do order very regularly and my order is always spot on and consistent. I know exactly what I'm gonna get every time I order and I think that is crucial. I have never had an issue with a missing or late order when I order ahead or for delivery so they've got that all figured out as well.

    I love CAVA and this is one of the locations I used to frequent when I worked over here. Today found myself with time to visit again and had a fabulous lunch. The staff is kind and this spot is usually busy, thankfully there is plenty of outdoor seating as it gets very loud inside. I love being able to hit my macronutrients here - usually go for 1/2 lentils and 1/2 greens to bulk up on fiber with grilled chicken and all the desired veggies, I love the red pepper hummus and eggplant dips with the yogurt fill dressing! Also gotta love their Maine Root drinks that are real sugar cane based if you want a sweet treat!

    This was my first time at cava and of course I had to check and see what the hype was about! I ordered the Harissa Avocado bowl ! The ordering process was easy, I actually ordered it how it came and made no changes. The bow was fulfilling and I felt light after eating it.

    Visited Cavas in Nashville today and got the chicken salad bowl and the food was freaking amazing! My family will definitely be back we could not find parking. Considering the amount of people there the wait wait wasn't extremely long. Fresh and very healthy alternative to hamburgers and fries. Highly recommend this restaurant. A+

    The ambiance at cava at green hills is very clean and welcoming. I was greeted immediately by the staff "Welcome to Cava"! With smiling faces, the food is fresh, tasty, and full of flavor I will definitely be back!

    the "Bowl" I was served.

    This isn't a half eaten bowl. I pushed all the food to one side to see if it would even half fill the bowl. They skimped me on practically everything and $15 was the cost of this bowl. So disappointed.

    I came here today for a salad. I built my own salad with RightRice, supergreens, grilled chicken, corn, onions, feta, tomato and cucumbers, crazy feta and the lemon herb tahini dressing. The food is so good here if you're looking for a healthy option. I got my salad to go but the restaurant is good for a quick bite for lunch. The service was good and I will definitely be back.

    Greek salad and my first time trying pita chips. Delicious!

We walked in on a Saturday around 5:30 and grabbed two seats at the bar without any trouble. They also have seating outside if the weather is nice. The bartenders were fantastic, attentive, engaging, and the kind of people who make you feel like a regular even if it's your first time there. They also have a really solid Happy Hour, which is always a good way to start the evening. I kicked things off with an Old Fashioned, and it was very well done. When it came time to order, I asked the bartender about the Rib Rolls. His exact recommendation was basically, "I get them all the time... they are soooo good." He paired that suggestion with the loaded baked potato, and at that point I was completely sold. I also added a wedge salad, which was fresh and delicious. My wife ordered the steak with crab, mashed potatoes and asparagus, and she really enjoyed it. But if we're keeping score between our two plates... I'm calling it: mine won. Now here's the important advice, save room for dessert. Unfortunately, my wife didn't. But I powered through and ordered the Health Bar Pie. And wow... Dang! That thing alone might be worth the visit. If you're in Green Hills and looking for a place to escape the hustle and bustle for a bit, this spot is definitely worth checking out. Great food, great service, and a relaxed atmosphere that makes you want to come back again.

This was a great move for them, and their new location is just beautiful. It's bright and colorful, with lots of fun murals on the walls, while maintaining the same fast and fresh casual food. I am slowly working my way through their menu. While everything I've tried has been tasty, there are definitely some highlights. Their seasonal Greek Signature, for example, is probably my new favorite. It's full of flavor and the perfect balance of Mediterranean ingredients. I also love their new wraps - especially the BBQ Chicken and the Chicken Caesar. Finally, this location has a FroYo machine! It's just under $5 for a generous cup of frozen yogurt, and then you can add on toppings for a small charge as well. My husband I dined in last night and decided to share some, and it was a hit! It's definitely more on the tart side than the sweet side, making it a nice treat when you're eating healthy. Service is fast and friendly (just like at the other Radish locations).

While considering the menu our server mentioned at a lot of the dishes were big enough to share. With this we split the Harissa Caesar and the Roasted Chicken Wrap. Out of the two the Caesar was definitely giving clean eats. It had a good flavor and was well dressed but was still giving side salad energy for entree price. The roasted chicken wrap I was kind of disappointed by. It was mainly the fact that the chicken was extremely extremely under-seasoned and wasn't leaned well leading to fatty/gritty pieces to bite into. In the end I picked out the chicken and the wrap tasted a lot better with everything else inside. All in all, dinner options might be better than the lunch at this point. I'm curious enough to give Santo another go on another day.
