    Spicy Lamb + Avocado
    Tee H.

    This was my first time in and trying Cava and I am in love! The staff was extremely kind and helpful as we were trying to figure out what we wanted. The food was amazing for everyone even getting different items. The restaurant was clean and well put together. Will definitely visit again.

    Falafel with black lentils
    Tessa R.

    Just in town for a few days and tried this place out. It's like a middle eastern chipotle. I ordered a bowl with arugula and black lentils. They have an entire back wall of all different types of greens you can pick from. It was amazing! For starch is brown or white rice or black lentils. You get to choose 3 types of dips/hummus. I got regular hummus, red pepper hummus, and the fully loaded feta. All were so tasty. I chose the falafel for protein. I was able to try the shredded lamb which was delicious with a little bit of spicy. If I didn't know any better I would have thought it was shredded pork. Then you get all you can pick toppings. Avocado was extra. I got cucumbers, pickled red onions, fried won ton chips, corn, and Cesar tahini. All of the flavors together were absolutely delicious. I really enjoyed my meal. ***the falafel was good. However, I like mine to be crunchy on the outside and softer on the inside. The ones here are not like that. They had no crunch. That being said they did taste good but I wasn't a huge fan of the texture. I will be coming back for sure and highly recommend.

    I'm obsessed with this place!! I want to eat it again tomorrow. This is like a quick service restaurant where you line up and go down the assembly line. Similar to Chipotle or Qdoba. Everyone was very friendly as I walked in! I ordered a bowl that consisted of arugula, saffron basmati rice, grilled chicken (WHICH IS ALWAYS JUICY AND SOFT), crazy feta, hummus, romaine lettuce, corn, cucumbers, feta crumbles, garlic dressing and harissa vinaigrette. The portions are so generous, I can split the meal in half! Everything is so flavorful and delicious. This is what other places want to be lol. I was a bit skeptical at first because I never had Mediterranean food before and didn't know what to expect/what flavor is good or not. EVERYTHING HITS. I don't know how but everything tastes good together. Highly recommend the pita chips because they literally are icing to the cake. PS DONT FORGET YOUR FREE PITA!!

    I had never been to the Cava in Norman until today and usually I'm not the type to write reviews to fast food restaurants but the staff here is so kind and friendly! Faith helped us get our food and she greeted us with a big smile and warm conversation! The food is always fantastic and the blueberry lavender lemonade definitely rivals the Panera lemonades. I definitely will be coming back to this location!

    Green and grains bowl with a lemonade
    Janee' T.

    This place is so freaking good! This is my 2nd time going to CAVA and my first visit at the Norman location. I left this review for the OKC location but much of the same applies for here. I did adjust the review as needed. The picture below is from my first bowl but my bowl for this review looked just like this! I get the green and grains bowl and just start adding away! I love the tzatziki dip, the hummus, and roasted red pepper hummus, and feta. I love to add the pickled onions they're so crunchy and delicious, cucumbers, olives, feta cheese, pita strips, and corn. This time around I got extra olives, feta crumbles, and corn. It was so good. I won't do extra olives again because it made things a little too salty. Garlic dressing, yogurt dill, and lemon herb tahini are my favorite dressings. This time the dressings were added to the bowl and not put in cups on the side, but I loved it! You absolutely have to add pita crisps. They are crunchy and soft to chew with amazing flavor. I ordered grilled chicken and then it's no extra cost for that meat like it is for some of the others. Prepare to drop a good $20 if you come here and want pita crisps and a delicious lemonade, I recommend original. This time I tried lavender blueberry and I wasn't that crazy about it. I can't really speak to how the service was, I went here after outpatient surgery so my sister ordered my food while I stayed in the car. But I know it was bomb.com!

My wife and I had the beef Shawarma sandwiches and they were very good. Nice amount of spice but not overwhelming. We both really liked their tzatziki sauce. One daughter had the chicken Shawarma sandwich and also thought it was good with a nice level of spice. My other daughter had the chicken kabobs with rice. She liked it as well. I tasted the rice and thought it was very good. We also tried the humus and it was nice. My girls told me they have a friend whose family is from Iran and they eat here often so I would think it's pretty authentic.

    I'll start this off with the food is outstanding. Walking in it's a little odd because it's like…read moreyou're having dinner in the Apple Store. Very stark lighting, virtually no atmosphere. That said, the food, which I would describe as more middle eastern than Mediterranean (despite serving a kind of deconstructed gyro) is great. It doesn't come out fast because, based on my ability to see into the back to a pretty rudimentary kitchen, it appears that Bibi is a very sweet grandmother that knows how to cook like nobody's business, and she does it all on her own. It also appears that her husband is the sole member of the wait staff. And that's all fine because, unfortunately, it wasn't busy. But they are in desperate need of a kitchen makeover episode on the Food Network. Would I go again for the food, absolutely. Very traditional baklava as well.

First and foremost all the tables were dirty and I never saw them get cleaned once even as people left. The owner watched me trying to wipe stuck food off a table and I thought he would bring a wet towel or something but nope. I could get over this but when I went to pay, and I didn't catch it u til after I left but I ordered the lunch special which clearly says $10.99 on the window but he charged me $12.99 for it. I also tipped $2 on top of that. I wished I had caught the overcharge at the time but I just won't come back now.
