I haven't had Cava in quite a while so I decided to stop in to grab a bowl! As I was walking in, I noticed a sign outside the building that stated that the sweet potatoes were back so I was very excited to add them to my bowl because I love their sweet potatoes! Since it was around dinner time, there was a line but it moved pretty fast. By the time I got to the front, they were out of their Super Greens so I kindly requested for the Greens and they went to the back to refill it. My "go-to" order are the Super Greens with a small scoop of the Basmati Rice. I like the Roasted Eggplant, Crazy Feta and the Harissa dips. I order two scoops of Chicken and the Sweet Potatoes (when available) with Corn, Cucumbers, Tomatoes and an abundance of Feta crumbled on top. I then top it with the Garlic, Harrisa and Shkug sauce with extra sauce on the side. I absolutely love it! It's the perfect combination of flavors. I ordered a drink as well and I feel like the prices definitely increased because my order was almost $29, which I thought was pretty pricey. Overall, the service was great, the dining area was very clean and the bowl was phenomenal. I will definitely be returning when I crave Cava again. read more

This was my first time trying Cava. I took a bite and i pull out a long curly piece of hair in the bite i took. For this being my first time trying Cava i will not be eating there again after my experience. In my opinion whoever is making the food should be wearing hairnets. read more

Visited again - updating my review based on the incredible service. I wish I would have gotten the team members name but the girl working the online order queue was on it! They were a little behind pick up times and she went out of her way to ensure we were taken care of. We will be back! Food was great. read more

First time going here. The food was good and high quality but small portions for what you pay. I'd go back again but only with a coupon. read more

CAVA - Grilled chicken salad bowl with hummus and Harissa. - Mediterranean Near Me - Virginia Beach, Virginia

When went in I was greeted well. The color scheme with the decorations look very nice. I like the spacious environment and all the seating. Everything was clean. The food is on a line and they make your pretty quickly. I love to get the lamb with the rice and my favorite scoop is the eggplant only. I like the food here but don't like to get the dressing on my bowl because some of them are bitter. I usually skip that, but besides the fact that I don't like the dressing I do like the restaurant. Btw, my one bowl costed $15.99 which most people might complain is steep but in the year 2026, this is an actually the average cost of a meal. read more

CAVA - Mediterranean Near Me - Virginia Beach, Virginia

CAVA is that boss babe girly pop you want to like but she just feels subdued, doesn't like you really, but still delivers some freshness. We ordered various bowls, some with lamb and some with falafel and the pita (which is the best part) so flavorful crunchy and pillowy bite all at once. This location doesn't do you any favors in terms of portions. I've been to CAVA in a pinch in NYC or traveling when I just want something healthy and not too overfried. Here the quality was fresh, customer service swift and delightful, and very organized. The lemonades and drinks were all new and refreshing. The portions though were evident on skimping. My bowl was not full enough for what we pay for. Perhaps it's shrinkflation living in these times or just this location, but I'm used to a towering bowl where a worker has to wrestle the lid down like a bear fight. As common is this quandry with Chipotle too. Some locations give you thin bowls and others heap it on. The food and smoked eggplant was tasty, the greens clean and crisp, all the sauces tasted delicious. The bowl was a bit shallow, that's all I'm saying. Deducted a star for portions but the location was very clean and staff were super kind. read more

CAVA - Greens + Grains Bowl - Mediterranean Near Me - Virginia Beach, Virginia

We popped in here for a quick dinner before my youngest's game and quick it wasn't, but good nonetheless. Our visit was right around the 5:15 pm mark on a Sunday evening and it looked like they had a wave of people come through prior to our visit. as a lot of their items seemed to be pretty empty and most of the chicken has been depleted. There seemed to be only 3 people working, but another rush came in after us and 2 more staff members came out to help. One of the guys went to the back to make more chicken. It seemed pretty busy after that. - Noms - My husband ordered the chicken pita with no pickles and I ordered the build-your-own bowl option. My husband seemed to like his pita, but he thought that they "drowned it in sauce" and that can be quite unpleasant in a handheld sandwich, also one that they did not wrap very well. I love build-your-own bowls, as it allows me to try everything they have to offer. I got a base of basmati rice, arugula, half roasted veg and falafel. They let me throw in whatever crumbs of the chicken they had left in the container and I added eggplant, red pepper hummus, roasted corn, pickled onions, persian cucumber, broccoli and topped it off with garlic sauce. I wish they had given a piece of pita or something to round out the meal. It was quite a large bowl with generous portions. I ended up eating only half and had the other half the next day. We also got the pineapple apple mint drink which I thought was refreshing and so was their lemonade! This was my second experience at a Cava location, and both times, it just seemed like they were really busy and ran out of stuff. After I ordered, I sat down to eat my bowl and my husband only got his pita once I was pretty much done. I hope they find a better groove. All in all, I would try Cava again, but maybe plan for extra wait time. Enjoy, Friends and never stop exploring! read more

CAVA - Build your own bowl with basmati rice, arugula, falafel, chicken, roasted veg, and toppings with garlic sauce - Mediterranean Near Me - Virginia Beach, Virginia

Very disappointed because my last few experiences with this store is the quality of the food, as well as the portion sizes are diminished. I will have to try another store to see if it's just this location or all of them, but we used to get a full bowl when you ordered a bowl in Chesapeake. In fact, to put a top on it you had to smush the food down. Here's what we got from Lansdown last night. This is not the first time, but definitely the most obvious. Two separate bowls this time. Barely 1/2 full. Rice was dried out and chewy / crunchy, and you had to search for the chicken. Looks to me like management that's obsessed with portion control to the detriment of the customer experience. Additionally, the transparent rip off the delivery fees being moved up into the cost of the food is shady AF. The cost to deliver the order is fixed regardless of the size of the order (Within reason of course. 1 bowl, or 4 bowls, same level of effort to deliver.) Now, the more you order, the more you pay for delivery. They try to hide it in the cost of the food,so the delivery fee appears to be consistent with the other food delivery services. They think you are stupid. read more

A day after visiting the Cava in Town Center, we decided to sample the Landstown location. This time I sampled the Balsamic Date Chicken bowl which was a curated dish with that wonderful sweet and spicy chicken, eggplant dip, red pepper hummus, corn, brown rice, spinach and a wonderful date vinaigrette dressing. My wife's Greek salad was fresh and delicious. We added shredded lamb to the salad and I have to say that it was the best marinated lamb I've ever had, period. Comparing this location with the Town Center location, I found the staff at Town a bit more helpful and enthusiastic and the portions were a bit more generous. But the staff Landstown was patient , the vibe was more relaxed and I noticed that the food counter was cleaner. I would be happy to dine in either location! The food is delicious ,fresh and healthy. Cava has exceeded my expectations. read more

CAVA - Interior - Mediterranean Near Me - Virginia Beach, Virginia

The quality of the Landstown Commons Cava has fallen off tremendously. I ordered a grains bowl with ROASTED veggies and they gave me a bowl with burnt veggies. Looked burnt and smelled burnt. I went back to see if they can remake the bowl because of the veggies and the cook told us that their veggies look like that all the time. Out of all the times i've ordered from here i've never received a bowl that has looked like this. read more

What a great location. This is up by the sports complex. Plenty of parking. Friendly staff. Clean restaurant. And great quality food. Nice place to meet friends and family. Fast service and make sure you have your app. The new lemon chicken bowl is great. My husband and I add rice. You can also build your own bowl or pita. We also love the drink selection. Very little sugar in the drinks. But still with great flavor read more

As a volunteer EMT for the local rescue squad, I truly appreciate having CAVA as a place to recharge after long and difficult shifts. The food is consistently fresh and energizing, and it's become a reliable stop for our team. A special thank-you to the manager, McKenna, whose kindness, professionalism, and helpfulness make every visit a positive one. We're grateful for the warm welcome every time we come in. read more

I come here so often that the employees know my name now lol. Love the harissa avocado bowl. Always fresh and fast.

Food is delicious and service is excellent! Highly recommend. I usually get the lamb meatball pita.

I really enjoy going to Cava when i don't wanna feel to guilty for what i ate. Lol. The staff is nice, the store is clean, and the food is good.. I had the yellow rice with spinach, corn, pickled onions, feta, hummus, tomatoes and cucumbers, pita chips, meatballs and more... It was good!! I tried the tahini sauce for this first time and it was a game changer.. Delicious... I recommend trying the different sauces because they can really change the taste of your bowl. The pita chips are a must have. They are seasoned with something yummy and taste good with the crazy feta dip... The bowls are filling. I usually have leftovers. If you haven't tried Cava yet, what are you waiting for? Its good!! Check them out!! read more

CAVA - Harissa avocado bowl - Mediterranean Near Me - Virginia Beach, Virginia

CAVA has become one of my most favorite restaurants. The quality and taste has been across the board good, at each location I visit. I love that they change the flavors of their drinks. I tried the blueberry lavender which was very special. On my way out I had the pineapple mint and that one was just delicious. It goes so well with the harissa bowl because you need a refreshing drink to go with the spice in that bowl. I'm sure it would go well with the other bowls too, but that one is mine. :D I've tried the pita wrap as well and love it too. In fact, I get the kids meal pita when I'm not super starving and it's the perfect amount of food for a light lunch. Clean establishment, nice people, delicious food - 5 stars! I edit this to say that every time I add a picture of my bowls on IG, CAVA hits my DM. I'm kinda a big deal. read more

Do yourself and avoid this CAVA at all costs. I've been to both the Chesapeake and Town Center location and have never experienced the attitude I just received. Every question or request was met with a look like the employee wanted to jump over the counter..Worldstar edition. I came in here with my significant other to order dinner and I thought it was just me at first but no, the person who took care of us had a nasty a** attitude. In fact, all of the employees here seemed to have some sourpuss attitude here. I thought the chicken I got in my order seemed like bits and pieces but after reading others reviews about how servings are slim, now it all makes sense. A simple question..."Do you have pita?" (mind you the app said this location didn't at the time) was met with attitude as if I was bothering the employee. I had to make sure to ask what time they closed because if we walked in 5 minutes before closing, the attitude would be understood. I've been there before..customers who were showing up last minute was a pet peeve. Needless to say, we showed up at 8, and they close at 10. I do not intend on coming back to this location. It should've stayed the restaurant it replaced, where I had nothing but great service. read more

We came for their soft opening and everything was very well organized so I was impressed once we walked in. The people that greeted you upon walking in were very friendly. When we got to the front there was sooo much to choose from. Different greens and grains, selection of proteins from chicken, beef and lamb, lots dips, veggies and a good variety of dressing too. I got the mixed greens and added arugula topped with tzatziki, crazy feta and roasted eggplant. Lots of veggies from tomatoes, cucumber, pickled onions, corn etc. I also added some dressing on the side. It was our first time trying cava so I asked for multiple dressings - garlic, lemon tahini, skhug, and yogurt dill. My favorite of all those dressings was garlic and skhug. It was very good and both went well with what we ordered. The skhug was extremely good with the braised lamb and basmati rice. Our family loved cava!! I was surprised that both my kiddos loved it as welll. My daughter got a pita with chicken and she almost finished the whole thing. My son loved his salad and ate the entire bowl. We will definitely be back many times. I've already signed up for the rewards program on the app. If you haven't tried cava yet, I highly recommend it!!!! read more

CAVA is soooo good! I love their menu and fresh food. It's absolutely delicious. Fresh veggies and delicious moist chicken and lamb? I'm in. I thought the only one nearby was town center area so I was thrilled when I mapped it last week and found this one which is only 15 minutes from our home and right by Landstown Commons and Veteran's United. Located in a busy strip mall on the way to Fieldhouse so you can easily find parking and there are a bunch of other things nearby if you are trying to run errands and need a meal. They have various features menu selections that must change with the seasons bc the lemon chicken bowl I got said "Now back" and it is GOOOOD! Highly recommend. I love their tea selection which also rotates and features a bunch of different teas and juices with nutrition information clearly shown. Delicious! You can make your own salad or wrap as well and load it up with veggies and such. A great "healthy, on the go option! read more

Tried got your own bowl grilled chicken and i got extra two spicy lamb meatballs. They said it was extra so i said ok ill pay extra. The spicy lamb was not that spicy. The grilled chicken was ok. I will try to come again to try another time read more

Food was okay at best.. Service was actually very horrible i've been coming to this location for a few months and this is one of the worst visits i've had and it's gotten so bad i have to write this review they were rude to me and having an attitude with me... And i ordered a grains bowl and the man that was serving me put less then half a scoop of rice and i had to ask for more multiple times and and with protein they were already thickening that attitude when i had said something because i know it wasn't right and im never returning this is this worst experience ever read more

I love the Cava menu, but I do have an issue. i was going to a birthday function, so i thought i would pop into Cava and pick up a gift card since I knew my friend loves CAVA . they were out of gift cards. that was September, I decide to get gift cards for Christmas. They were out yet again. went to every Cava in VA Beach and Chesapeake, I tried to call first and they did not answer the phone. The employee said they all were out except Hampton, How are you out at Christmas time? read more

CAVA on Landstown Centre Way is my go to spot to stop and get something to eat. I know I will be in and out of there as quick as possible and have fresh food. I notice the employees being very nice and welcoming to first time costumers and enjoy being in that kind of environment. This place is a great stop if you are at a sport event around the area as they have healthy options to keep your body replenished! CAVA is by far my go to out to eat as I eat it frequently and have no complaints! Thanks CAVA! read more

Our new quick serve restaurant. Food is fresh and the combinations you can create are a hit. If I had to find a negative, is that the amount of included pita could be bigger instead of a wedge, but still good nonetheless. read more

First time that I've experienced sub par service at any Cava. From the other Va Beach location to Cava restaurants in Northern Va. My family and I walked in at 8:50pm on a Friday evening and there was hardly any food. In fact, the employee said - oh, we are trying to close. Then I asked for confirmation and clarification of closing time and he said 10pm. The portion of chicken that I paid for was minuscule and Insulting. One team member was eating the leftover pita chips when the customer behind us was asking for some, they said well that's all we got left. I guess the team of employees were too pressed for time to make another order of pita chips. Is it customary to start putting the condiments away one hour before closing and letting customers know that's all we got one hour before closing? If the whole menu isn't available while the store is open, why keep the store open? This is the first time we've experienced this type of service. We usually frequent this location and the service is supreme. What's up with this crew?? read more

I work next doors at Teriyaki Madness and tend to do pick up orders, so I can pick them up after my shift.

I've eaten at this location a number of times now and have had nothing but exceptional experiences each time. One employee in particular - a woman named Shake - is delightful, helpful, and kind. I would return to this location for her alone even if the food wasn't great (which it is!). Side note to corporate: In a military town, you should offer a military discount. read more

Ordered almost 20 min ahead and it seemed like the bowl was filled almost half less than at the eden way location. For the same 12$? The chicken wasnt cold this time tho. read more

I love everything about Cava and am so glad they opened a second location in Virginia Beach. The service is always fast and efficient. Cava is similar to Chipotle but Mediterranean style. You pick and choose your base, dips, protein, toppings, and dressing. I always opt for the greens and grains bowl and mix up the rest of my toppings depending what I'm craving at the moment. I've never been disappointed! And I love that they give you free pita chips with your order! read more

Yet another review where I cannot comment on the food. I wanted to try the Cava at Landstown in Virginia Beach as I live only 5 minutes away. I placed an online order for curbside pick-up and followed the instructions as in the email receipt . No one picked up the phone after several attempts, so I went inside. The workers could see that I was parked in the curbside pickup, there were no orders waiting on the counter, although there were several people in line. I called a few more times while waiting in line and gave up after 10 minutes as it would have been at least another 10 minutes before I could talk to one of the workers at the counter (line was terribly slow) . I saw at least one worker who kept walking out to the counter and then heading to the back. Busy or not, they should not offer services they cannot provide. I would call this another case of failed management. There is NO method for canceling the order, so I am assuming I will have to contest the charge when it posts to my credit card. It was an unbelievably frustrating situation. read more
