This was my first time having Cava and I went inside to order to make sure that I would get all the toppings and proteins I wanted! just like at chipotle, I can never trust to order online, I like to order in person Food: Think of it like a mediterrean healthy version of Chipotle, but more expensive and with healthier ingredients. I got the build your own bowl with a side of pita bread. the protein i got was harissa chicken which was an extra $2. the dips and spreads I got were tzatziki, red pepper hummus and harissa, which I fairly enjoyed with my pita bread when making my little bites. Overall, the food was pretty good and felt super healthy. I do prefer Hummus Way in Santa Ana and they have better toppings, so if you are looking for an amazing alternative, Hummus Way is the way to go!

It was fast paced and clean. It is smaller than other locations I've visited but I'm just happy it's close to home. The service is sweet and they're kind. The food hits the spot all the time. Super flavorful and never misses. You are able to order online and pick it up. There are 3 parking spaces outside the establishment for pick up orders. There's also tons of spaces for handicap and regular parking.

Honestly I have to comment that it was extremely cold inside. The AC was so strong that I ended up getting sick the next day. I get it that it may be hot to cook but it felt like I was in the snow. Please do something to make it comfortable for the customers too. Clearly no one was eating inside - everyone was scrounging for an outside table. The bummer is these tables are shared with 3 eateries. The line takes awhile, so patience is a must. I feel like the servers were trying their best to move the line through. It starts with choosing either a pre suggested bowl or you can design your own. You can choose your base then add protein and fillings. Don't forget a little drizzle of sauce at the end. Pita bread slice is added too. The flavor was good. Huge portion size (a mini bowl would've been better).

I'm so glad they have cava in this side of town. Place was easy to find plenty of parking outside. Service was excellent. Plenty of meats and greens to mix and match. Portions is huge. Pretty satisfied with the overall service.

Today was Day 1 for this location and I'm so glad I was able to stop in. The energy in there was full of excitement and nerves as they served their first round of meals to guests. Everything went fairly smooth for just being open a matter of hours and aside from the balloons out front and the extra employees and personnel standing around, business went seamlessly. We ordered a build-your-own bowl and a chicken wrap. Both were absolutely delicious and I love all of the customization possibilities with the build-your-own bowl. And of course, we couldn't forget the side of pita. There is PLENTY of parking available right next to them. There is both indoor and outdoor seating available. Fortunately So Cal weather was doing its thing today and we opted to sit outside. There are umbrellas to shield you from direct sunlight. My only gripe is that there isn't a trash can outside so you have to go back inside to put everything away. I will definitely be back especially since work within walking distance of them. Excited to watch this location grow and flourish.

I've ordered delivery from here probably over 4 times and it's been good (or so I think) every time except today because I found a piece of steak?? in my veggie bowl. I don't eat meat and some other animal products for health reasons and this is completely upsetting because I haven't had meat in over 6 years now. I requested a refund through the delivery app and only got 5$ back :-) hopefully this can be handled properly and compensated the proper amount, so I can continue to eat here and feel safe knowing my food isn't contaminated.

First time visit. The food was very good and healthy that's for sure. We walked in and got in a long line that moved fast and we got our food and were sitting down in probably 7-10 minutes. We did have to clean our own table and never saw anyone come out to clean tables or anything. We both had a chicken bowl with lots of extras and the prices are ok compared to other places that serve chicken bowls and don't have nearly the amount of food and extras that we got here. There's not much seating here but we did get a booth but every time the door was opened which was constantly you get an ice cold wind across your table and the store. Service was very polite and fast and did not skimp on portion/protein size. The drink i had was the Cucumber Lime drink was incredible. We will defiantly be returning to try something else.

We got the spicy lamb salad and also built my own salad with all the toppings (skipped the carbs), and everything tasted super fresh and flavorful. The spicy lamb had a nice kick, and I like how customizable everything is: you can really make it exactly how you want. Service was fast and efficient, which makes it perfect when you want something healthy without waiting too long.

Food is always so good here! When ordering online, they fill the bowl not like other locations. There is lots of seating room and friendly staff. Love this location.

They just open one near us and we tried it and we love it, very delish and clean. Kudos to the CAVA staff--they are very friendly and kind. The food is excellent, and the drinks are quite refreshing; my favorite is the cucumber one. If you haven't tried it yet, you definitely should. The place is also very clean with a lovely ambiance. They truly deserve a five-star rating!

Cava usually is a nice place and I enjoy going there and sitting in the clean atmosphere. This time I had my brother go pick up some cava for us. While things were cooked well he clearly asked for the garlic sauce and shug sauce for mine. (He doesn't know which sauce is which because I usually can go order for myself, also HE DOESNT WORK THERE) They lied to him and gave him a red sauce, they lied and said it was shug sauce! I am sensitive to spicy sauces and they put SO MUCH all over it. I do not have a sense of smell, so I gave it a mix since I was willing to try something new, since for some reason the shawarma chicken is gone (mistake since that's one of the best items). My stomach hurts and so does my mouth. There's a CLEAR difference between red and green and even if you're colorblind the sauces have the names written on it!! I don't know if they were having a bad day but that's messed up. It costs so much to buy a fricking bowl and you think it's ok to prank someone? Thanks for the stomach pain that's gunna last a week. Wasted money on food from here. Orange location is terrible!!! Don't go here if you have food sensitivities. I had to look online to find out it was the spicy harissa vinaigrette. The only thing I can say is the line wasn't long but now I wonder way. I love to give good reviews but this is my third bad review I've given. 0 stars wish there was negative stars.

I had a great experience getting food from Joe yesterday! It was my first time in a Cava, so I had lots of questions, and didn't quite understand some things, but she was so patient with me and explained everything. She crafted my bowl just right, even offering a suggestion for what drizzle I should get, as well as the delicious lemonade (both of which I asked for recommendations). Excellent service Joe, I'll be coming back.
