My daughter recommended CAVA and my husband and I went to try it for the first time and loved a few things about it. The food was the star of the show. My daughter suggested the lamb meatball and they were absolutely delicious. I wish you got more than two. The brown rice was good. Tried the black lentils for the first time which I like, although they were a little too hard for my taste. I also had what I thought were regular sweet potatoes but once I took a bite I realized they were Japanese sweet potatoes which I love. And the pita chips, wow! Delicious. I got the original and they were so flavorful and crispy. The pita bread that came with my bowl was delicious too. The price was fair for everything I got. I wanted to add some avocados but you know how avocados get when the air hits them and unfortunately makes them unappealing to the eyes. On the service side the staff was pleasant but when I mentioned it was my first visit, I was a disappointed that no one offered to walk me through how everything worked. I didn't want to assume. Nor did they ask what I might enjoy in order to make recommendations. They missed that opportunity. At one point I felt a bit rushed to make my selections even though my husband and I were the only ones in line. A little patience and guidance for first-timers would go a long way. read more

I love me some Cava. This CAVA gets packed at lunch, but somehow I've never had trouble finding a parking spot (even though the lot looks tiny). I usually grab one of the signature bowls. They make it so easy, and every single one I've tried has been fresh, colorful, and full of flavor. Now I'm craving one again. haha The drink options are such a win too! That cucumber drink? Dreamy. I'd come back just for that. There's a little outdoor seating area, but I always end up inside. Busy or not, it's totally worth it. Highly recommend! read more

I've tried nearly every bowl on CAVA's menu and the Harissa Avocado Bowl is the one I keep coming back to. The spicy harissa-honey chicken pairs perfectly with the coolness of the avocado and the lemony hummus--it's a flavor roller-coaster that somehow stays balanced. Portion size is generous (I'm always full but never weighed down), and the toppings are super fresh; the pickled onions and crunchy pita crisps add great texture. Pro tip: ask for a drizzle of extra garlic dressing if you like a little zing. Service at this location was fast--my order was ready in under five minutes during the lunch rush--and the staff double-checked allergies without me asking. Clean dining area, plenty of parking, and easy mobile pickup shelves if you're in a hurry. If you enjoy bold Mediterranean flavors with a spicy kick, this bowl is a must-try. I'm already plotting my next visit! read more

CAVA - Harissa Avocado Bowl - Mediterranean Near Me - Pearland, Texas

This was described to me as a Chipotle for Mediterranean food and I found that pretty accurate. I have little experience in the cuisine and went with a preset wrap because I had no idea what i was doing. As other reviewers have said, the staff will be mostly polite but not want to help you and want you to go fast and keep questions to yourself. That was a bummer. The wrap itself was as described but i found it messy to eat and didn't really enjoy it. The dining room was very clean and there was ample indoor seating so that was good for our party of four. read more

CAVA - The serving size is disappointing for the price. - Mediterranean Near Me - Pearland, Texas

This was a great place for a healthy and highly customizable meal. There are also preset bowls if you would prefer that as well. I opted for customizing my own bowl that also came with a pita bread. I chose half brown rice and supergreens for my grains. For dips/sauces, I got the tzatziki and roasted eggplant. I chose the fire roasted corn, tomato & onion, pita crisps, shredded romaine lettuce, and the pita crisps. I then topped it off with the lemon herb tahini dressing. Overall, I was very delighted by my choices and the flavors were amazing with every bite. The portion size was also very super filling. The service was fairly good. The staff were patient with me and let me take my time to look at the menu before choosing what I desired as it was my first time dining in. The establishment is fairly spacious with both indoor and outdoor seating. read more

Food:5/5 Service:2/5 I've held this in long enough so I just want to share my experience. Cava, why oh WHY do you offer free pita bread if almost 85% of the time your employees don't even offer it to the customers?!?!? I can't tell you how many times I've visited your store and was never even offered the pita bread. Additionally, if a customer orders Cava for delivery on any app and requests the free pita bread via a selection in the app... well, expect to not receive it. Just like me. Imho why even offer it then? People love your pita bread but repetitive false promises are just disheartening. That's it for now. read more

Absolutely love this place! My go to is the Steak + Feta Pita. That being said, I relish all of the Pita options on the menu (my wife favors the bowl format). The new Shawarma Chicken is extremely tender and almost too juicy, lol. They make sure to not scrimp on the meat, so I come away with a satisfying meal. I believe the pickles, pickled onions, and vinaigrette dressing aids digestion. I personally like my dressing(s) on the side so I can control the amount. I can't tolerate carbonated drinks, so I love that they have multiple non-carbonated options. Cucumber Mint Lime is my favorite! I would recommend this place if you want something besides the ubiquitous burgers & fries, fried chicken, steak, and Tex-Mex options that are on every corner. read more

Always loved their hummus, however, because of the customer service experienced during this visit, I won't return. Servers snickered at questions asked by this customer and did not offer apology when part of order was missing. Had it not been a special request for a superbowl party, I would not have completed the order. So unfortunate read more

Update... business reached out and is taking measures to fix the problem. I say give them a chance.. as they are responding to their customers. Eating on Saturday night at 1900. Not extremely busy. Dinning area was dirt, floor and tables. Every table top had food and smears on it. The floor was littered with food and discarded napkins etc. The food servers were friendly, however they did not have many of the toppings available. Ordered a meatball pita... no meatballs. Waited for them to cook some. Service is usually pretty good. However today it was slow and dirty. Hope it is not a trend. Dissatisfied and disappointed. read more

I LOOOVVVEEEE me some Cava!! They never miss!! The food is always fresh and they give really good portions! I ordered the Harissa Chicken Bowl. You build your bowl your liking. I do half Super Greens and rice with: Tzatziki, Harissa chicken, cabbage, pickled onion, tomato, cucumber, crumbled, feta, and avocado. This bowl can literally give you 2 to 3 servings, depending on how hungry you are! Always get their freshly made drinks. This time I got Pineapple Apple Mint! So freaking and tasty!! I wish they would put one of these establishments in New Orleans!!! read more

Canva located in what previously was Zoe's Kitchen has pulled off an unbelievable Mediterranean fast food dine in or out experience with a larger note of healthier eating choices. I tried a bowl and all the things , that I never tried before and it was definitely a hit with my taste buds. The staff was very knowledgeable and friendly. Facility was very clean and well lit I appreciate the patron displayed as this was my first time, although I cannot over the look fact that's it gives me Chipotle vibes, just doing it their own way. So, until next time, Bye-Bye! read more

Yum! I'm still dreaming about the last dish I had here. CAVA is a casual Mediterranean restaurant where you can order pre set bowls/wraps or create your own bowls assembly line style. It's similar to poke or build your own burrito bowl places. I've only ever done the build your own bowl option, and the bowls I've had were delicious! I tried the harissa chicken and the grilled chicken, and while the harissa version had slightly more flavor, the rest of the bowl was so flavorful it honestly didn't make a huge difference. I liked the super greens mix, but be aware there are some crunchier things in there like raw Brussels sprouts slices. The saffron rice didn't have much saffron flavor to me but was cooked well. The eggplant, crazy feta, hummus, and harissa were all yummy. My favorites were the eggplant and crazy feta! The toppings all tasted fresh, and they had a nice variety. I appreciated that they were generous with the toppings too! The side of free pita bread was a bit small but did the job. My favorite out of the dressings I tried was the Greek vinaigrette. The bowls are reasonably priced, and the employees at this location were very friendly. There was a good amount of seating, the tables were clean, and they had easy parking in front of the restaurant. read more

Cava bowls are fresh tasting and the portions given are big. My favorite sauces are the Harissa, Red Pepper Hummus and the Skhug. The basmati rice is nicely cooked and the pita bread is tasty. The workers here are professional and do not mind going an extra mile. This location is clean and my only complaint is I wish the eating utensils where wrapped in plastic. Never know who picked one up and placed it back into the bunch. read more

CAVA - Grains Bowl with Grilled Chicken - Mediterranean Near Me - Pearland, Texas

The Mediterranean version of chipotle. Pick your greens/grains or pita, choose your protein (about 7 choices available) add your veggies, select your dips and condiments and Voilá! There's some suggested bowls available but I made my own. There's a charge for extra protein and a limit of 3 dips. I believe the rest of the veggies are unlimited. The greens were fresh, the rice was delicious as the meat was juicy. So glad I have this place a try! read more

Move over Zoe's! There's a new Mediterranean spot taking over! CAVA Group which owns CAVA (obvi) and Zoe's has started flipping some of the Zoe's locations into CAVA. It appears that the CAVA takeover is happening in the suburbs so if you need a Zoe's fix, you'll have to go inside the Loop. My mom told me about CAVA awhile back. I didn't realize it was a chain. When I saw that Pearland was getting one, I was intrigued. I stopped in today to pick up lunch to go. The moment I stepped inside, it smelled so good! I explained that it was my first time. The young man who started my order was really nice and explained the options. You can do the build your own bowl or pita; or you can do a bowl with predetermined ingredients. It's a similar set up to Salata where you go down the line and pick your ingredients. I opted for the build your own bowl. You can do grains, salad, or grains and greens. I opted for grains and did a mix of saffron basmati rice and brown basmati rice. I had the option to add a piece of complimentary pita bread which I did. Other ingredients that I added: regular chicken, hummus, tzatziki, tomatoes & onion, tomato & cucumber, Persian cucumbers, cabbage slaw, Greek vinaigrette, and garlic. The bowl came to about $10. The young lady who checked me out was very sweet! As they were building the bowl, it didn't look like that large or a portion, but when I got home, I wasn't able to finish it! The flavors are so good!! That tzatziki is amazing!! The tomatoes and onions are delicious! The pita bread is on point! All of it is so good! I texted my mom to tell her how much I liked it, so you know it's good. My only complaint is that some of my chicken had gristle which I hate, but I'm not holding it against them. They have to go parking up front and on the side. The restaurant is sort of tucked into a corner of the parking lot at the corner of Broadway and Kirby. Unfortunately, there is not direct access from 518 or Kirby. You have to turn in and sort of weave your way through the parking lot to get to it. It's to be expected with the CF that is the Pearland Town Center. read more

Wasn't the best customer service. Wasn't greeted while standing at the bar (1st time guest) and the setting was "hurry up and order". After understanding the way things went, I placed my order. The rice was under cooked, no flavor at all if you're not getting any dressing added(not that flavorful either) and the best part of my meal was the lemonade. Falafel (spicy) was super dry. Ambiance was that of a typical fast food place that's close to a business park, nothing special. I genuinely don't get the hype from this place. Maybe I came at a bad time read more

We went here on a Friday evening when the weather was beautiful. Great day for outdoor seating. The food was great!! Everything felt fresh!! I had basmati rice as my base with supergreens. They give you multiple options for your base, protein, dips and sauces. People behind the counter were very patient and I didn't feel rushed to make a choice. The portion sizes were pretty good. There are multiple drink options and their sweet tea was perfect level of sweetness!! read more

First time trying CAVA on a Tuesday afternoon. My friend suggested this place to me and we came together. She helped me order and got really excited with all the options there were available. I got free pita on the side with corn, tomatoes, cucumbers, and more vegetables. By the time I got to the end, I picked a lot of different sauces and variations on the bowl. I got the cucumber mint drink, a fork, then sat down with my friend. When I took the first bite, oh my gosh. My tastebuds exploded. I mean this was SO GOOD. I have had Mediterranean food before, but this was just as good or more. The best way to explain this place is like Chipotle, but Mediterranean food. The seating areas remind me a lot like Chipotle where you have seating outside or inside. Also, very clean environment. For the prices, I feel like it's more affordable than Chipotle. You get more bang for your buck here. Try it and trust me, you won't regret it! read more

Greeting was awesome by Mindy and food is delicious. Always a great experience and excellent service.

Another establishment that I do not frequent. And today was just disappointing. The lentils were absolutely not cooked properly, they were hard. No wonder the lady behind the counter piled it on, they had to get rid of it. I felt rushed when I was ordering and there was no care in assembling my bowl, ingredients just thrown in to the point where the bowl was all wet on the outside. As a customer, I felt like I was being a real drag. No customer appreciation here. Go to ZOA Moroccan Kitchen! read more

I stopped by here randomly on a weekend with my mom for lunch. Our first choice fell through so I hopped on Yelp and came across Cava. This relatively new restaurant is located in the former location of Zoe's Kitch. Cava is all about healthy Mediterranean food. It's Chipotle-style so you choose what you want when you order and they make it for you right then and there. Bowls and pitas are the main options and they have pre-selected ones or you can create your own. I created my own pita and chose my protein (you can do half and half), veggies, and sauce. If you're looking for a fresh, quick meal, Cava is a solid option! read more
