    Cava always hits the spot. I love stopping by for a quick healthy meal. Service is usually quick. Its like a Mediterranean Chipotle. You make a bowl and pick your ingredients. Not too loud of a place to dine in. They are usually playing music. I recommend those to try Cava if you have never been.

    Excellent taste, served quickly. I tried it for the first time a few days ago and brought my friend back today! Delicious and healthy!!

    Everything wrong, bad, or missing. I come to Cava all the time but this was my first Uber Eats order. When it arrived I tried my Strawberry Citrus drink and it was sour as in went bad sitting out. I've melted when it was only a 10 min order and just overall tasted not safe to drink. I payed for a full pita and only got 2 side pitas. Now my bowl...missing about every single topping. I got double dressing and pita crisps and that came on it but I am missing cucumber + tomato, persian cucumber, feta, pickled onion, and the avocado i payed extra for. Luckily Doordash was able to refund me in full. However considering much of Cava is mainly the toppings I am genuinely appalled since all the toppings are listed on the bag and receipt. If I forgot to add something I completrly understand but it's listed multiple places. I work in food service similar to Cava (Grain and Berry) and understand things get forgotten but not every. single. topping. I normally don't rate doordash orders either but this is crazy. I even emailed the company.

    Delicious! Fresh! Clean! Friendly service! Helpful! My bestie never eats all of her food. This is the first time ever!

    The service was good, but I can't speak much for the atmosphere, because I just came in to pick up a mobile order. However, the food was delicious. I got the Falafel Crunch, and I don't regret it. The best part about it is that I was able to customize my order online, and remove the feta, so the meal could be 100% vegan.

    I'm really struggling here between three and four stars as I've been to cava before in Dallas and I think the taste is excellent, but I was extremely disappointed on this visit as the portion size was half of what I've had ata different location. I ordered a base of the black lentils and fresh spinach, and it didn't even cover the bottom of the bowl. You add on the other ingredients as you can see from my picture it's still very lacking. Taste is there but for $14 I would expect more.

    This is my go to lunch spot, I come a couple times a month to take food back to the office. The food is always fresh, portion sizes are great, and it's pretty much always ready at the time they promise! It gets pretty busy at lunch, especially when Vanderbilt classes are in session there are so many students. So have some grace with the employees, and if you don't like a line order ahead!

    My friends and I heard so much about CAVA and it didn't disappoint. The bowls were so good, and the food was very fresh. You can create your own bowl or you can pick from their menu.

    Taziki's is one of my favorite chain restaurants, and Greek food! They're consistent and fresh…read more I've done takeout, dine in and event catering with them over the years, and they do a great job. Their salads, salmon, and roast potatoes are some of my faves. Also a great chocolate chip cookie! I enjoy getting the Salmon Feast. Great pasta salad and whipped feta too! Thank you! The staff at the 11th Ave Location is really kind and we love walking here from the office.

Physical Location & Service: The space itself is great. It's clean, airy, and thankfully cool, which is a lifesaver in a Nashville summer. There's also plenty of seating available. The cashier and the workers were friendly, which was a nice touch. Food & Flavor: This is where it all fell apart. I got the build-your-own bowl with the Mediterranean harissa chicken. I'm not sure if they got the memo that this is the home of hot chicken, but the harissa chicken was completely bland and not spicy at all. The rice pilaf was a major letdown--super under-seasoned and crunchy, like some of the grains were uncooked. The tzatziki sauce was also underwhelming, just an unseasoned yogurt mess with no flavor. Value: All of that came to $17 for a very unsatisfying meal. I wasn't expecting an authentic Greek experience, just something Greek-adjacent, and this felt more like something from a bland potluck. Definitely not worth the price for the quality of food received.

    After a morning of shopping at a local craft fair on Charlotte Pike, we were in the mood for a…read moregreat meal. I've wanted to eat at Fattoush Café since I moved to Nashville, but I've never found myself in that part of town at meal time. We walked in and found a cozy atmosphere, with no pretense. A single gentleman behind the counter, who may have been the owner, begged our indulgence as none of his employees had shown up to work that day. We were fine to wait given the delicious smells coming from the grill. He asked us if we wanted the chicken shawarma, and then apologized because he was freshly cooking a batch and it would take 15 minutes to be ready. That was music to our ears. Any Mediterranean restaurant that cooks proteins to order shows great promise. We had a chicken Shawarma salad, and the super platter. The portions were tremendous, the proteins were spectacular, and the tzatziki and spicy sauce both tasted looked and smelled homemade. The hummus was some of the best I've had in this town. The total for two huge meals, that really fed us each twice, was a paltry $40. The man behind the counter thanked us for coming in, again thanked us before we left, and was genuinely kind and seemed happy to have us in the restaurant. Very highly recommended for an amazing Middle Eastern meal on Charlotte Pike near downtown Nashville.

    Where to begin?... great food, reasonably priced, and energetic and happy vibe…read more 1. This place was packed at 11am on a Wednesday. Two guys behind the counter in total control of their domain. Serving food that took time, but was delivered with quality in mind. Not skimping just to get through the rush. 2. Locals were happy to recommend options, and staff/owner made how they like. No one disappointed me, just wish I had a larger appetite. If you like authentic food cooked from the heart, try it out.

    One of the most memorable meals of the trip. We ordered the Chick-In Feast, Feast for 6…read more The meal started with solid appetizers. Four fried phyllo dough rolls with chicken (wish this was 6 since the feast was for 6). The others were different dipping sauces to eat with pita bread. Everything was good but our favorites were Humus (hummus) and Alinazik. The Alinazik was creamy, smoky, with a mild taste eggplant in it. That was followed by the Haydari (yogurt with dill and mint). Wasn't quite sure what to think of Ezme which had walnuts and was tart and fruity. Definitely interesting and worth trying, but we wound up only eating about half of that one. The soups (6) - A choice between 2 - Mercimek (lentil soup) almost tasted like a split pea soup - (solid. Chicken soup tasted like cream of chicken with bigger pieces of chicken - ok. Salad was ok. It was like a house salad with a slight drizzle of creamy dressing. The dressing was purple (maybe from pomegranate). The main show was the entree. A massive mountain of saffron rice topped with various grilled meats and vegetables. My favorites were the chicken wings and the ground chicken kebabs. I didn't particularly care for the pearl onions since they were on the grill too long (burnt with acrid flavor). Dessert was 6 pieces of baklava. A pretty good version of it. Very sweet from chocolate sauce, not very crispy. The walls are covered in chicken related decor featuring chicken puns. If you like dad jokes, this will be a positive. The feast at Only Chicken is truly a feast. I love the amount of variety they're able to get with just one protein and the grill. Fun and memorable experience.

Restaurant has a cute outdoor patio for nicer days, and a clean interior. The staff are always so kind and willing to explain anything on the menu. They also have a small parking lot with several spots in the back if you don't want to deal with Hillsboro paid parking. Definitely a hidden gem in Nashville. I've never had anything short of exceptional food here!

Now after reading what another posted here about a rat?I wouldn't have ordered from this place. For some strange reason my app on my phone hasn't been working correctly or I would have searched.

And everything else that I've tasted was really good. The price isn't too bad, its definitely not cheap though. Main issue is that their delivery service is very unpredictable, it usually ranges from 40 to 90 minutes. If my ex boyfriend called, it would usually take about 20-35 minutes. That's right! there's a difference! I noticed this pattern and asked my then boyfriend to discuss it with the guys that work there... apparently since they all shared Middle Eastern backgrounds, these guys really liked my ex boyfriend. They thought it was so cool that he was Israeli and they respected him because he was a male! I can't believe it, these punks take longer to feed me because I'm a woman! Well, scarew a you!
